[QUOTE="shutyertrap, post: 31770, member: 134"] Let me spare you all from listening to 30+ minutes of info most of us already knew! *Stern has noticed that RBION has suddenly become more popular since the release of TPA. Noticed enough that they're having even more conversations with FarSight. *TPA has two more kickstarters in mind, and Terminator 2 would probably be the first of those. *We can pretty much forget about music games like Guns 'N Roses, Rolling Stones, and AC/DC. Bobby said apart from everything else, the music is just too damn expensive and they don't wanna cut songs. We're talking like 99% chance of no way in hell TPA seeing any of these. *Certain movie studios, namely Warner Bros. and Disney, aren't exactly playing nice. They wanna sell a big chunk of licenses, not just enough for one property on a pinball simulator. Maybe somebody wants to come up with a list of which tables that affects? *When PC becomes available, FarSight will absolutely support cabinet builds. They're quite excited about that actually. *Discussions have been had with some of the classic designers, mainly the guys that now work for Stern, about creating original tables that would push the boundaries of reality. *Bobby really wanted to talk about something he can't talk about. From what he seemed to be dancing around, there are licensed tables FarSight wants that the license holders would actually rather create a new table for, a sequel if you will, using the same license but created for TPA. *Addams Family did get mentioned, but until they can absolutely figure out what the costs would be, they don't even wanna think about a kickstarter for it yet. You could tell in Bobby's voice that this license is proving to be a royal pain in securing. That's the crux of all the new info. There's little tid bits here and there that can be gleaned from the interview, like how Taxi is so beat up from all the play it gets they need to completely shop it again, or that they're on their 4th build of the physics engine. Anyways, there ya have it. [/QUOTE]
