Haha that's awesome. I've actually been itching to play High Speed, so this will be perfect!
I couldn't be happier for youHOLY FUCKING SHIT!!!
IT'S HIGH SPEED!!!!!!!
Edit: As soon as someone said to look at the plates, I ran over to look at the backglass... but I knew I'd seen those letters on my machine before. PS. You guys heard it here first, before PAF
BTW I think the Junk Yard speculation is due to a data file in the TPA folder on PC indicating it. But it could well be a red herring or just a dud file (although it does have references to filenames like tips and stuff for JY, so it's probably a legit file). But a car identifier as a license plate is more likely than a part number for some plane in another game, IMO.
If it's High Speed, then FS is going to make a lot of people happy, myself included.HOLY FUCKING SHIT!!!

Finally bought Season 2 on TPA in preparation for Season 3.
E: What's up with the way it's organized on Vita? Some of the tables from Season 2 go into the "My Tables" folder, but some stay in the "Season 2" folder? All of my S1 tables are in the "My Tables" folder. Bug/glitch/issue?
I realise I am years late to the party on all this stuff, but damn if it isn't a mess downloading all this stuff from PSN. I just purchased season 2, none of the tables were added to my download queue, and I had to go through the add ons section to find them all. /rant
Are the Steam versions generally the first ones updated? What is the lead time like for release to the other platforms for the tables?
It could be confusing because the car's plates on the backglass are completely different to the ones on the p/f. I was just glad I sort of remembered that I'd seen that number before and didn't not go to verify myself.Haha love that was such a piece of trivia no one on PAF or even Shaneus knew it for sure offhand. Excited to play! (PS4? Someday? Please?)
You mean, as long as PinGAF felt it was a good investment/price.
Depending on how much you could be willing to spend, it might even be worth holding off to see what Stern's next one is. Could well be Muppets.
Haha that's one theme my wife would not like. She REALLY doesn't like the Muppets. I'm not even sure why...
E: Got my TPA issue sorted out. Had to manually download packs 15-20. Weird, but whatever. Only played Victory tonight. Very neat table!
Get divorced.
I'm only half kidding.
My wife won't let me buy a pinball table, but that I can at least understand (noise + footprint + cost). Not liking the Muppets? Did they perform at her birthday party and all the other kids laughed, but she couldn't so the children all laughed at her instead?
Is your wife Tex Richmond?
Oh man, Season 2 has so many cool tables! Glad I finally decided to jump on it. Pinbot is not what I expected, but it's a blast.
I agree, I put a bunch of time into the season 2 tables over the weekend. I am surprised at how much I have gotten into the older tables, I spent around 3 hours yesterday afternoon just playing the El Dorado table. Was kind of bummed that White Water completely crashes my PS3 though, not sure how they can still have that up on PSN to be honest.
I got my first trophy for completing all the wizard goals on a table last night after a solid 2 hours playing Gorgar. That aside I seem to have a knack for completely sabotaging myself when I have a good game going. Playing a game of Terminator 2 yesterday I had 78 million after my first ball with two extra balls light, my total at the end of the game was 82 million.
2 games is what i was going to suggest. over time you'll need to do maintenance, wait on ordered parts or just want to play something different. having a 2nd machine goes a long way to making things easierI'm now considering an X-Men Pro or (if I can convince my wife...) 2 games in the 1-2.5k range. JP, Stargate, Pinbot, Taxi, T2, etc. Got my feelers out!
You're not looking in the right places Remind me (maybe PM?) and when I get home from work I'll send you a link with where to get tables like Iron Man, Tron, LotR, Simpsons etc. for Visual Pinball. I'll probably post it here too, but I honestly just can't remember right now.The only reason I prefer Future Pinball is because it's a LOT easier to set up and there are more recreations of current tables (Iron Man, Spider Man, TRON, LotR). While it IS scripted, it still lets me try and play tables that I'm interested in. I can have a table downloaded and playing in less than 10 minutes.
X-Men Pro would be a good machine to get a hold of. I'm not a fan of it at all (new code or not), but I can see how people would enjoy it and the theme is quite decent. JP is supposed to be good, but I'd suggest that if you're getting two machines (a good idea for sure), get one DMD and one not just to switch it up and keep it a little different. Maybe if you haven't decided by the time the next Pinball Arcade pack comes out, you'll come to the conclusion that you need a High SpeedUpdate to my pin search!

Man, that is SUPER clean looking! Good that he posted close-ups of the scoops as well, they're always a good idea to have a look at as an indication of playfield use. If you were worried about them, you could look at getting yourself a Cliffy's protector for those (I'm sure he makes them) but I wouldn't be in any hurry unless they're having problems collecting the ball.
I don't know how you'll be able to wait until Friday If he has a good rep as well, no need to worry about someone buying it from under you. Just be wary that that's a thing which could happen.
PS. You're definitely going into it in the right frame of mind. But try not to get too excited, prepare yourself for a "oh, this should just be a simple fix" or a "it just needs a fuse replaced, I just haven't had the time". They're big warning bells, and could be a dealbreaker or at least, worth knocking some money off.
Over 600 in additional mods, sub shaker, back box led, LEDs,speaker LEDs, mirror blades, custom cards, signed by Gary and the designer. Game is beautiful, and dialed in.
Awesome hunnie! I'm excited to play it!
Holy shit! Like I said, the game's not necessarily my thing... but that seems like it's a great score! The depth of that game from what I can tell is pretty incredible, so no doubt you'll get lots of play from it. Congratulations!!
You should get JP as well
I'll take full responsibility!
Bet you're more excited than if you were getting a virtual pinball cabinet
Microsoft has announced the first 25 indie games coming through its ID@Xbox program. And Pinball Arcade is one of them!

I'm thinking that too, but not for those reasons. I just think that as per usual for Farsight, they're taking on too much and unable to deliver. The "competition" (or whatever) mode for PC still isn't there (despite being available on iOS and announced with the last release on the splash screen) and there's been literally no word on the lighting upgrade since it was first announced.In all seriousness, there really should be zero differences between the two. Maybe between the XB1 and the PS4, they'll have the incentive they need to get more tables released at the PS4 level, and then will have enough done to get the DX11 upgrade out too... I was just thinking probably part of the reason the DX11 is taking so long is well, because they've only really done the first season of tables, and even those have graphical fixes needed. Steam users would probably be confused if they could only play a portion of their tables in DX11 graphics, so I am starting to think it may be a long wait yet before we still the addition.
Hey, anytime Shame you're not anywhere near Texas (I don't think), I'd grant you the privilege of schooling me on it!You have NO idea.
OK you probably do. But seriously. <3

Indianapolis and Texas could be 30 minutes drive away, for all I know ;PSadly, no. I'm in Indianapolis. I've got a lot of work going on in Texas at the moment! But that's about it...
More like 15 hourIndianapolis and Texas could be 30 minutes drive away, for all I know ;P

Magneto one for sure. No contest.
Yep... that'll happen a lot. I think I've been mentioned maybe 6 or 7 times now? And I unintentionally got mentioned on Pinheadz as well, when one of the other guys (not Rod) said something about good comments in the Podcast thread on PAF. My name was mentioned there, too :/Oh and Shaneus, I heard your name pop up on a Coast 2 Coast episode recently. Nice! AND! I just started listening to Pinheadz (the Australian podcast). I had no idea how much money it was to get a machine out there holy shit. You're from Australia, yeah?
