[QUOTE="Shaneus, post: 149859, member: 204"] So, when they say Stern, do we know they're not including DE/Sega tables at all? I don't know if FS have the license to use the Sega name in their game at all, because it's still very much a brand (whereas DE obviously isn't). Let's look at what Stern have released on their Whitestar platform (ie. "modern" Stern), with a little comment on their likely relevance: Striker Xtreme - Possible, would be easy for FS re: license, may be considered as having "global appeal" (football/soccer). I doubt that appeal exists for this game, though. Sharkey's Shootout - Another "easy" one, although needs licensing from the female snooker player on the BG. Lacking in the appeal dept., though. High Roller Casino - Keith Johnson design, doesn't seem to be a bad table. Gambling theme might not be kosher, though. Austin Powers™ - Bahahaha. Monopoly™ - Depends on license, but definitely has some appeal there. NFL - lol nope Playboy® - lololol no way RollerCoaster Tycoon - Probably the most likely out of any, license would be cheap and it's a fun, broadly-appealing theme (which could cash in on the Cyclone/Hurricane rollercoaster-themed pins). The Simpsons Pinball Party - License aside, this'd be a winner for FS. But that license would not be cheap at all (probably Kickstarter-worthy) Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines - If there was a bundle deal with the T2 license, then it's possible. Otherwise, "No way". The Lord of the Rings - Be a big seller for FS, but license would be a massive killer. Dem actors and film studios. Elvis - Not enough appeal and license would be expensive as hell. Grand Prix/NASCAR - Eh, not enough appeal here, either? But Grand Prix could be the cheaper option, with no license to worry about. The Sopranos - More likely a "Pinball After Dark" machine. Doubtful we'd see it on vanilla TPA, not counting the license. I'd rather have Seawitch than any of the above, though. I'm putting my money on that being the table. [/QUOTE]
