The Official Latest NEWS And INFORMATION Discussion Thread

[Byte]

PC isn't forgotten. They are having discussions with Valve to bypass the Greenlight process. With luck, the 360 publisher will also be the PC publisher and make it even easier.

(And no, they can't do it themselves - something like Steam makes their lives much easier).

There's the Developer, which is one of Farsight's entities, then there's the Publisher, then there's the Distributor. AFAIK, Steam is just the Distributor. I can't see why they wouldn't be able to cut out the middle man and self-publish on Steam (using a separate legal entity), other than needing the cash.

For PC gamers, it might be good to have a Publisher as, if they are smart, they will do their own QA and make sure things work as advertised and are up to the desired quality levels (just check the PS3 and PS Vita sections).

Awesome news, finally!

 

[Bowflex]

I think Angry Video Game Nerd Adventures is the one to be excited for! Just kidding, of course. Maybe Pinball Arcade doesn't have enough pizazz to it? That's probably the real reason for the delay. It seems kind of plain next to the other titles especially ones like Shovel Knight, Death, Inc. or Hammerwatch. What the hell does Hammerwatch even mean?

What the hell does Hammerwatch even mean?

Its Dewalts answer to Apples forthcoming iWatch.

Table Pack 13 is AVAILABLE NOW! for iOS, Kindle Fire, Android, and Mac!

Attack From Mars is Table of the Month!

Now that Table Pack 13 is here it's time to start guessing what Table Pack 14 will include. Here's the hint from today's newsletter:

"For Table Pack 14, we've got two greats for you; a Bally and a Williams. Back in the 80s, this Williams table outsold the Bally table by over 4 to 1 according to www.ipdb.org. But... don't discount this Bally classic, there's a good reason why it was a fan favorite."

Centaur and Pin*Bot, almost without a doubt.

Mike may have dropped a big hint about one of the tables in the chat room the other day. But I won't spoil the surprise, as I know some of you really love to guess. It's great fun to speculate.

 

[kimkom]

I am really looking forward to Centaur (even though I can't play it on my platforms!). Looks like a classic table.

Hi.

I have read quickly some messages but didn't find the info. I read some things about it but nothing official. So, sorry to ask it again : are there any news from the Adam's family table? Did farsight announce officially something? Is it a clear NO from them?

Thank you!

 

[gooche77]

There hasn't been a clear NO on Addams Family. The license will be hard to obtain apparently.

 

[Patrick]

Go for a 100 000$ kickstarter, I am ready!

Its not a clear no from FARSIGHT. But my understanding is that the estates of some of the actors used in the table will not even talk to FARSIGHT regarding Licenses. Im sure FARSIGHT are doing everything that they can to get the license.

 

[Patrick]

I can play the tables without reals faces on it. I really hope they will propose something ;-)

There is still then the numerous speech samples, we will just have to keep our fingers and toes crossed for this one

 

[Patrick]

I can do them with my own voice if necessary

 

[pghjerry]

Does Farsight have their Xbox720 and PS4 development kits yet?

 

[SKILL_SHOT]

PS4 is in the house!
