[QUOTE="JoshuaKadmon, post: 22027, member: 1046"] I agree with everything you said, bavelb. But that works perfectly into my two-fold point: 1) at least FarSight seems to have the capacity for recognizing greatness outside of a Top 40 internet ranking, and 2) while we know we'll inevitably get games like Star Trek and Twilight Zone to drive TPA sales in the mainstream, I just hope we get more non-PHoF originals sooner than later. Don't misunderstand me, though, I appreciate the work FarSight is putting into those licensed tables. Jumping through the hoops of license-wrangling can't be fun. Most companies would never care to attempt what FS has set out to accomplish. But I also know how this internet-driven game market goes. A lot of people who contribute their ratings to Pinside have never played more than a handful of real tables. Opinions are often based on the popularity of an IP, the way a machine looks in pictures and videos, or an inaccurate facsimile of a table poorly rendered into Visual Pinball or some other emulator. I'm glad that FarSight is filled with real pinball enthusiasts who care about the history and gameplay of the machines themselves. And yes, Swords of Fury's playfield is pretty sweet. [/QUOTE]
