They're pretty nice EM machines, I really like that old-fashioned sound. When I got my iPhone and heard the pinball ringtone I made it the default immediately!

I would have picked Aces High before Central Park as well. I'll be curious to see how tough the table goals are. I've finally cleared all of them for the rest of the tables on offer, but clearing all wizard goals is likely to remain a fantasy for all but the oldest machines.

I have to say given the issues with the DLC even discounting the loss of their publisher, why does Farsight continue to develop on Xbox primarily? Wouldn't it make more sense to do primary development on Windows or Mac OSX?

Well, after the non-commital noises about the next Playstation and Microsoft consoles I feel pretty encouraged about the announced Wii U release myself. And I'll continue to do iOS. I'm hopeful that Nintendo will have a better DLC policy that will allow for near lock-step release with iOS and Mac.

Great job Jeff, that was nice to listen to. I was missing out on an update regarding the Wii U, which hopefully has more flexibility regarding DLC and software updates than Microsoft or Sony's consoles given Nintendo's campaign to woo independent developers to their new platform. I'm hopeful...

I think they had good intentions, but I don't doubt it's coming; maybe there's more issues than they originally thought. Certainly the way the Wii U handles DLC is pretty important to get right. I know I only bought a few tables for the Mac version because I intend to use the Wii U version as my...

No kidding - it might even look that way on the machine Farsight has or it might not even, you know, matter?

Well I rather doubt that the fixes wouldn't get approved, but you're right about them needing to submit them for approval so I expect they'll work on emulating the chipset before trying to fix any scripting issues. And regarding visibility of the upper playfield that's why this and Creature...

It seems to come down to the lighting and the lack of emulation meaning the light effects and sounds aren't quite right. I still find it quite playable, but I will agree some work needs to be done to make this one better.

Farsight should really add a "rate our game" link in the options page. The biggest gripe I have with the App Store is having to search for a game again in order to rate the current release - why not allow me to do that from the "purchased" area? Of course if I'm missing something totally obvious...

Mine are all good except Bride of Pinbot which is still a pre-billionaire's club score. I'll have a quick play and see if "Updating" will sort that. Nice to get my propers in Firepower which is my only triple-digit placing (and a repectable 200-odd at that). It's the simple things that satisfy...

I also love Sorcerer, but I'm afraid I wouldn't miss Jive Time (though I was very excited when I initially unlocked it) or any of the remaining Gottlieb collection tables aside from Aces High. Honestly they could have skipped Genie as well, though I'm not sorry I bought it. Nevertheless I...

I've been trying to complete the "max bonus award" Wizard Goal (again) and Pop Sgt is right that they light when you complete the 1-2-3-4 targets. Nice to know there's other ways to light them up as well; no doubt I did that when I got the goal as "guest" during the time I wasn't using my...

And I'll happily take Space Shuttle over something like T2, so I'd hardly call that a "wasted slot" either. I'm sure we all have different faves so frankly I find this entire thread a bit presumptuous and unnecessary.

Beat this a couple of days ago by catching the ball and waiting for the Tiger Loop light to flicker out - much easier knowing that!

Interesting. Was WMS spun-off prior to Warner Interactive buying Midway?

I've had this happen a couple of times. I also just had the machine run a never-ending bonus after the last ball drained on a multi-ball. It falsely registered the 145k bonus and extra ball Wizard Goals (though I legitimately did both before completing the Standard table goals, so I'm not...

But this forum is just a fan site and not something run by Farsight. The fact that they use it so heavily is a bit unusual (and a coup for Mr. Lacey, cheers Gordon). I would expect they do have a means of tracking bugs; I can't see why it should be publicly accessible. Regarding the "flipper...

Mosh Pit was a toughie, but it's like he says you need to either focus on it or just play a really good game and over time take the shots. I've gotten loads of goals without trying; the tough ones are the ones where I need to really pay attention to what's going on. The score for Big Shot is the...

I'm not really bothered about pro mode, but I'd definitley pay 99p for a cool ball skin.
