I'd have to listen to the podcast again, but I think FS may be considering also releasing Dr Who plus Regen as a standalone app apart from TPA, as well as having them be part of TPA Seasons 6. Much like they did with Scared Stiff. Certainly for Whovians who aren't otherwise into pinball, that...

Wow... posting to greenlit in 20 days, that's going some for any game let alone virtual pinball, right?!

I don't see excitement for a Shadow KS to be honest. GnR - eh, maybe, but I don't see that happening despite the recent reunion (which hasn't actually happened yet). Actually The Shadow, Congo, Gilligan's Island, Johnny Mnemonic - those are the kind of low-hanging fruit that FS have actually...

Best of luck - for the time being I'm very much crowdfunding-weary after the Dr Who KS, but since this campaign is running for a couple of months, I'll check back later and see how I feel :)

The thing with combos is that there's an enormous grace period. You don't have to be accurate, just safe.

We don't know if FS did send out promotional emails to any fan sites etc., and if these got buried or ignored. We probably never will. If the sites were ignoring FS, what more can they do? If they keep trying they're going to get marked as spammers and ignored anyway. As for the BBC, well...

Both Tarek and Dizzer have scores over 1 Trillion on CftBL? How is this possible? I'm pretty sure we've established the game doesn't recognize scores over 999,999,999,990. (There are no other outliers, at least with the filter on.)

I'm going to flip it round. A G Soccer #48 (March), R911 #49 (April), TX-Sector #50 (May). A somewhat... interesting end to the season.

On mobile devices, the way sound is handled makes a lot of sense. They need to keep size to a minimum. Using compressed sound that is played by native libraries is preferable to emulating an entire sound chip (which would be running on top of the ROM emulation). On consoles and PC? Hey, why...

I thinks he's just referring to Kickstarter rewards. They can't offer S6 passes for PSN/XBLIVE as KS awards, and then discover that Sony/MS won't allow them to actually do that.

...which was switched back on last night by Gord and is working again, see here: http://digitalpinballfans.com/showthread.php/11080-Doctor-Who-Kickstarter?p=233408&viewfull=1#post233408

No. It has been confirmed, multiple times, that Farsight record the sounds coming out of the game's speakers, instead of grabbing the sounds from the ROMs (if indeed they can do so). You could argue that this actually makes the games more authentic, since you're hearing the sounds as they...

If you type "acronym" into Google, all of the definitions agree that an "acronym" must be a pronounceable word made up of the initials(-ish) of other words. So POTUS (President Of The United States) or ISIS (Islamic State in Iraq and Syria) or NATO (North Atlantic Treaty Organization) are...

We already have a thread going on this, in the ASK sub-forum: http://digitalpinballfans.com/showthread.php/11135-Zaccaria-Pinball-on-Steam-Greenlight!

Mate I'll grab my pork pie and leg it down the apples and pears, see you at the ol' rub-a-dub-dub in five. Just don't tell the old trouble & strife because it could all go a bit Pete Tong if she finds out.

Seems to be working again, thanks for the quick turnaround :D (IIRC it was turned off because it was a resource hog on the back end?)

The only thing I can tell for sure is that they already have a Dr Who on-site - it's the table between Scared Stiff and TAF. (The front of the cabinet has the words "Time Streams" at the bottom; you can just see the very end of it, for example at 1:47 but also various other points.)...

I was there '92-'96 (with '94-'95 spent in Grenoble, France). There were a ton of pins all over campus. And of course Brighton itself.

I'd already bumped to $80 after Regen was announced - going that extra $5 was a no-brainer. And yes, they offered it as a loss leader to get it done. Personally, I don't want to see another KS. Enough is enough. Just raise the sticker price for S6 already. (And yeah I realize I'm saying...

It takes discipline to ignore that last flashing jackpot though. Last night, I managed to (deliberately!) get Showdown and Gold Mine multiball stacked. I was ready for a party! All three balls drained within seconds of each other.
