So I haven't played this table in forever. Apparently I got all the wizards already, so I don't need to do that. I never have had that great of scores on this though, my best being sub 200 million I think. I'm very curious to read what you guys do, especially since I really don't know the...

Imagine how different our 24th TotW would be if it was based on Disney's Aladdin and had Robin Williams doing call outs! Yes, our table of the week is Tales of the Arabian Nights, and there better not be a single person who doesn't own this table seeing as how it's free. This also completes our...

Don't think I haven't begged them for just that. Problem is that leasing the space, paying utilities, hiring staff, it all pretty much just eats into any profits, and on top of that they'd have to now maintain the machines! One of the guys was really pushing for them to open a 'barcade' as the...

Which brings me back around to the problem of this table tilting on me without reason. Grrrrrrr

How do you keep them off the slings? Those way, way overpowered slings.

They don't sell the tables. Learned that lesson the hard way when they sold off their collection after making PHOF: Williams Collection. Plus Norman would probably scream bloody murder, as he's the one who as acquired all of them. FarSight doesn't have one room where all the tables are, instead...

50 table club. As I've been able to go to the Pinball Hall of Fame in Vegas, I have actually played Goin' Nuts. Here's what I either know or don't remember having played... Harley Davidson (can't remember) Genie Central Park Flight 2000 Class of 1812 (can't remember) Victory El Dorado Lights...

Since I finished up all the wizards on Pin*Bot, I went back to this to get that last one, the 250,000 score. To say the least, I still haven't managed it. I did score 249,410 which is frustratingly close yet so far away. Two things I've noticed that amp up the frustration more than the usual...

Why it's smart to hire a good PR person. FarSight seems to rely on its newsletter, Facebook, and the this fan forum. These are great ways of communicating directly to your fan base, but absolutely horrible for getting new customers. Imagine if they were able to nurture a relationship with IGN...

So I just watched yet another video for Lego: Dimensions and you have to wonder about how much they are spending on IPs. Game has Batman, LotR, Simpsons, Harry Potter, Dr Who, Portal, Back to the Future, and who knows what else. The expansion packs are going to be costly, I think I heard $30...

Yes and no. Technically there is nothing stopping them from making it, or South Park, or The Walking Dead, or any Marvel table. The problem comes from the license holders, who more than likely wouldn't want two of the same product on the market at the same time. More to the point, why would you...

Somehow I don't think Williams every QA'd the game for that, and I'm positive FarSight didn't! When can we expect the 'King of Kong' documentary sequel about pinball? And would that make you the Billy Mitchell guy since you are having the top scores?

Well then be sure to check out the Table of the Week/Tournament of the Month threads. We run a tourney the last Saturday of every month and it is open to all platforms. Next one is on July 25th with sign-ups starting July 22nd. Lotta fun, different from what FarSight runs, and we have prizes!

The shots for me on Big Shot I don't remember being able to get are the 7 and 15 drop targets. Now I can get them a fair amount of times. Also it is noticeable when flipping off the tip that balls don't rocket at full speed. I'll let you do the rigorous testing though!

I actually posed that in the question, if the new physics would affect that kind of thing. I tend to believe it will, as I've been playing Big Shot with it, and I seem much more able to aim than I used to. Not 100% about that, but it's the feeling I'm getting.

Ewwww, DX9! I think I just threw up in my mouth a little.

I missed out on joining Silver by one place. I'm first loser! Had a certain users been eliminated as a hack like he should have, I woulda just squeaked in. I actually missed out by 10 minutes. After watching a movie last night and realizing the tourney was still going, I checked my scores and...

Well that wasn't as bad as I thought it would be. Just finished all the wizard goals. I really thought getting all the planets was gonna be a bear, but after taking the above advice, I started just knocking down the drop targets over and over and next thing I knew, goals collected. Still don't...

Once you're in gold, it's not terribly difficult to stay. That being said, a whole slew of killers just gained silver status, and they'll be dropping into gold the month after that. Oh, and way to go! 2nd is nothing to sniff at.

Hey Qlorn. There's a ton to discover here on the forum, which can be a bit intimidating at first glance. While we are not a part of FarSight, most of their news get cycled through here. And we even have some of their team making posts, such as FlippyFloppy did! You can tell who they are by the...
