Zen Studios putting on Ms. Splosion Man table tournament

I hope you've been practicing the Ms. Splosion Man table on Pinball FX2, because Zen Studios has teamed up with Twisted Pixel to put on another high score tournament. Starting on May 18th, all you have to do to enter is play a round between then and May 25th.

The first, second, and third place players will receive Microsoft Points, a download code for Marvel Pinball Avengers Chronicles, and the truly awesome Ms. Splosion Man slingshot plushie. If you're not a pinball wizard, you will of course still be entered into a random drawing for other various prizes that Zen Studios will be giving out.

I've been really getting into pinball again lately, and the Ms. Splosion Man table has been one of my go-to table as of most recently. Destructoid's resident pinball nerd Conrad Zimmerman has an absolutely insane score for this table (and just about every table), so my goal for this tournament is to somehow at least beat his score. Anybody have any tips to get an impressive score on this one?

Full list of prizes below:

1st Place

  • 4000 Microsoft Points
  • Code for Marvel Pinball Avengers Chronicles
  • Ms Splosion Man slingshot toy

2nd Place

  • 1600 Microsoft Points
  • Code for Marvel Pinball Avengers Chronicles
  • Ms Splosion Man slingshot toy

3rd Place

  • 800 Microsoft Points
  • Code for Marvel Pinball Avengers Chronicles
  • Ms Splosion Man slingshot toy

I wish good sir. Dead Xbox. :(
Oh man, I like pinball but comparatively to everyone else I suck it at it righteously

Still might pick up the table just to rock the machine digitally
CHALLENGE ACCEPTED. LET'S GO, NIGGA.
Oh, It's on.
I'll give it a try but I doubt I'll rank in the top 50%, the high scores on this table are insane.

Dishonored does lots of killing in these videos

Bethesda released two videos showcasing the Dishonored walkthrough it did at E3 this year. It involves a level I got to play myself, and found very promising indeed, because I summoned rats from an ethereal dimension. You give me a Rat Vortex and I am pretty much sold.  Check out part one above, and part two below!   more
