Rumor has it that AFM is next after ST:TNG, but no formal announcements have been made.Any news on AFM? It's one of my favorites on Visual Pinball.

Didn't someone say T2 would be up next?
I think it was that T2 would be the next Kickstarter / premium table.
I'm not positive on this.
Just thought I'd read it somewhere.
Hope they do sort TAF licencing Rafie. This would be a monster TPA draw & big seller.
I know this is going against the grain, but I'm not a big TAF fan - just can't get into it somehow. (I used to play the real table a lot when it was first out too).
Wow that's the first time I'm hearing someone didn't particularly like TAF. Then again...you like what you like and you don't what you don't. It's all good. I'm sure you will still playing it when it drops no the 360, right?
TAF was a big deal because it really started/promoted the new wave of pinball with tons of great dialogue, sound effects, toys, etc. Add in a hand that grabbed the ball and a magnet that moved the ball on the playfield and it got peoples attention. Not to mention the original table was LOUD in all the places I went. I could hear The Mamushka and Bear Skin noises from across the room in a crowded bowling alley and it made me investigate. For people who thought they knew what pinball was - TAF changed that. (T2 mightve been a bit before it, but TAF took giant leaps toward convincing the mainstream to play pinball.) Do I enjoy Monster Bash and Scared Stiff better? You bet. Do I still WANT TAF? A resounding yes...
I'm pretty sure that I read somewhere that, Farsight were planning something like 50 tables. Does anybody know what their plans are after that? I know it's a little early to think that far ahead, but I do hope they plan on continuing this project beyond the original estimated tables.
I've never played a pin that I wouldn't buy for a few bucks. And if FS puts out a table that I've never heard of, then I would buy it out of curiosity. I can't think of a scenario where I wouldn't buy a table. I'm sure there are many more others that feel the same way.They've got a license to do (x) amount of games, and then they have to pay again for the next batch. So long as there is interest, there is no reason they wouldn't re-up for more. That is the fear though, what happens when neither table of a table pack is even in the top 20 most desired games? We'll have to show our usual support is what!
