    Confirmed upcoming tables

    Microsoft might not have regarded paying for the license as worthwhile, but I think Farsight will make an effort if it's economical. I've had occasion to play Attack from Mars and that is a lot of fun. Wasn't that the first of what was supposed to be many in the last gasp modular table design...

    Why don't players like Gorgar?

    I played that one at a pizza joint in a Chicago ex-urb. I actually quite enjoyed it, though the film is pants-tacular.

    Bug Various Camera problems

    This is what it has done for me twice without turning off the multi-ball camera. If I do trigger the bug I'll definitely turn off the multi-ball camera; I might do that anyway as it doesn't seem to add anything for me.

    Buy in Beta Testing Anyone?

    I've volunteered my services, but I cannot say I would pay. I suppose if it was regarded as a pre-order, per the original poster that would be cool.

    Tables that will never get licensed

    Put me in the "never say never" camp. I never would have thought we'd see any licensed tables at all, yet here we are looking at several being in the Pinball Arcade. There are people on the Shout Factory MST3K board who talk about films that will never be licensed and yet they're getting...

    Request can we get some gottlieb DLC?

    I think one of the early "upcoming" lists had both El Dorado (meh) and Big Shot (yay) on it, so we'll get some more. The hard truth is that Bally and Midway are more popular...

    Request Most Wanted Newer Stern Tables - Pick Five

    I haven't seen any of these machines, but I voted for Tron and Lord of the Rings because they sound pretty good. Should there be a separate poll for Sega tables? I believe Stern came about directly from the sale of Sega's pinball division (which if I'm not mistaken was actually formed from...

    Request Twilight Zone Kickstarter Update #8 - Guess which top 10 licensed table.

    I imagine it will be Addams Family, but I did play that old Indiana Jones table at the mechanical entertainment museum (no clue of the actual name; I bet someone here knows) at Seacliff in San Francisco and it is definitely one I'd like to see again.

    A DLC free month to fix the bugs?

    We've already had bug-fix releases between DLC rounds on iOS so I don't see an either-or situation here and as others have said we don't know their revenue model so it's not really worth thinking about. I am curious as to whether people are actually contacting support@pinballarcade.com with...

    What are your most-wanted EM tables?

    I played it on the Wii, and yes, it's 50Hz. The ratings don't mean much to me because I don't know who is doing those ratings or their criteria. If the real machine is faster I guess that would help, but I didn't find speed to be an issue in other tables in that collection (bar Genie, which also...

    Bug Various Camera problems

    I have yet to experience this, though I'll admit I've only triggered the multiball once on each of my iOS devices (iPhone/iPad). I'll repeat what I've said elsewhere: if you're going to expect this to get fixed, be sure to indicate your platform, OS rev and any game settings when contacting...

    Latest NEWS And INFORMATION On FarSight Studios' The Pinball Arcade

    I don't think that's a risk unless the license holder is an individual. I know the Mystery Science Theater 3000 DVD releases are working around issues like that where there's someone who happens to own rights to some obscure B-movies no one would care about if it wasn't for MST3K, so they're...

    Official Twilight Zone News

    Exactly my feeling. I'm just happy we're getting Twilight Zone, even though I've never played it and my all time fave pinball machine is Star Trek: TNG. The fact is that I never thought we'd get any licensed tables, so this could have been a crappy one like the original Terminator machine and...

    Star Trek: The Next Generation Kickstarter Stretch News!

    Yeah, that is quite brilliant. They had a couple of machines at the laundromat/cafe in North Beach near my flat in San Francisco and this was one of them for awhile. I put a lot of spare change into that one. Apollo 13 was another licensed table I really enjoyed with that mental 13-ball...

    What are your most-wanted EM tables?

    Does anyone actually like El Dorado? I'm genuinely curious if it's just that the version in the Gottlieb collection wasn't well done or if it's just me. I felt like there was too much dead air due to the wide-open centre of the playfield and it was nigh impossible to get the special given the...

    Request Most Wanted Steve Ritchie Tables - Pick Five

    Well, I didn't use all my votes simply because I don't know most of these tables.

    iOS - Bug Camera Locked

    I have yet to experience this bug. I'm curious what settings people are using. I have Post Processing: Off, Nudge:Shake and Multiball Camera:On. When I play I use the default camera: 1. This is on both 3rd gen iPad and iPhone 4 running iOS 5.1.1

    Bug iOS VER 1.1.3 Bugs

    Thus far I've gotten the Frankenstein multi-ball on both my 3rd gen iPad and my iPhone 4, both of which are running the latest rev of iOS 5 and both of which have the multi-ball camera enabled and I cannot replicate this camera lock bug, so it clearly isn't something that happens consistently on...

    Why don't players like Gorgar?

    I like Gorgar, but then I (vaguely - I was only nine) remember when it was first released. I don't think I started playing tables in earnest until the cusp of the 90s - I remember playing a lot of Pin Bot and Cyclone. I'm pretty agnostic when it comes to pinball as long as the table has enough...

    That's great news. What charts are these incidentally?
