[QUOTE="LanceBoyle, post: 110776, member: 3065"] ...thinking about what I had said about WB Games... Maybe the reason they didn't sign them in for 360 TPA was because of the licensed tables? I mean, think about it, many of the licensed pins on TPA that are based on films or TV shows are from companies other than WB/Time Warner. TZ and Star Trek TNG are CBS/Paramount, CftBL and Monster Bash are Universal (okay, sure, the latter isn't based off of a movie, but it does use the Universal Monsters) and T2 is StudioCanal. Sure, this pretty much sounds farfetched, especially since I'm gonna guess FarSight hadn't considered some of those tables when they were releasing the game, but think about it. I also wonder why they didn't sign System 3 for this one since they released the other PHOF games in Europe, but apparently PHOF Williams was (and still is) the only 360 title they released, and IIRC apparently Microsoft's policies didn't let you publish on XBLA until releasing 3 or 5 retail games. Microsoft, man... [/QUOTE]
