SKILL_SHOT, take care of this one.

They should hold T2 until pack 18.
The consoles only update every other month so it makes the kickstarter seem even slower for console backers when it's 2 months later than ios and Android.

Table Pack 17: T2

According to the hint in today's news letter.

Table Pack 17
*
The next update will be a great one!* The Table of the Month will be Centaur.* The new release in Table Pack 17 has a pretty famous character on the backglass that shares a thing or two in common with Centaur, so we think this pairing is pretty cool.
*
Sorry, no picture to help you with this month's hint - our artists are all tied up in creating art for the PS4 version.* They'll be baaack next month with a new hint pic.

Wow. That quick, eh?

I'm sure FarSight will make an exception for T2 and submit it by itself in late August so that it can be released on PS3/PS Vita in late September.

T2 seems pretty likely. Goes to show that FarSight has been working on this table long before the Kickstarter.

At first I thought of "Embryon". Composition-wise similarity: characters on both backglasses are standing on circular shaped background with cocoons lying around in front. [Emb] [Cen] Aren't alien eggs famous enough?

 

[Palmer Eldritch]

I thought on the kickstarter they were saying T2 for september... wouldn't that leave August open?

that hint though... hmm it says famous character so it could be a famous pinball character (like Rudy, Centaur, Gorgar... ?)

gonna go w/ my gut tho.. Doctor Who Confirmed!

 

[Pinballwiz45b]

It's Terminator 2.

 

[Palmer Eldritch]

ok I've come to my senses.. it won't be Dr. Who


it'll be Captain Fantastic

 

[smbhax]

Ooohh right : D

Perhaps part of the licensing negotiations were that Farsight had to show what they were actually going to use it for and deliver some kind of working prototype (if the licensing also is a % of sales, you want to make sure there's an actual product to sell).

 

[JoshuaKadmon]

No, "they'll be baack next month" definitely means T2 for September. I'm guessing Evel Knievel and Tee'd Off, and I'm willing to bet that the PSN goof meant that FS didn't feel the need to give us another hint on the PHoF table.

My other thought was Elvis, in his black leather on the backglass, but either that or Evel Knievel would be quite a surprise. What do you think, Kolchak? Are you finally getting your wish?

Yeah, it has to be T2. Especially since there's no hint for a second table. Everybody's expecting T2 to be a standalone pack.

I still haven't received my newsletter yet.

if that is so then isn't the kickstarter a scam? I mean why would they work on a product they weren't going to [possibly] release.. seems a colossal waste of resources

If so, it will be an ultrafast turnaround for a table that just finished the KS campaign getting an early release. Hopefully, it's not full of bugs. If it is, well I feel for the PS3 people then.

Maybe FS was overconfident that T2 would get funded?

I'm afraid to jinx it. Evel Knieval would have something in common with Centaur, a motorcycle.

So does Harley Davidson, 3rd Edition.

Please don't jump to conclusions and start throwing around words like "scam". If FarSight decided to start working on T2 before they signed the licensing agreement, then that simply means they took a chance by putting money and resources into a table that they were hoping to receive the funding for the upfront licensing and would not be able to distribute it without securing the licenses to do so.
