Quoted from andre060:

And the mode arrow inserts don't work. Makes completing the modes near impossible, unless you know the game backwards and forwards. So ridiculous.

I’ve always backed Farsight but i just can’t hardly back them anymore because of how slow they are to get games out and their lack of communication with their customers and not fixing problems etc. The new Ghostbusters table is pur sh*t, worst table that they have ever done IMO. If you watch their Twitch channel and you see the two immature kids that works for them, its easy to understand why their games aren’t very good anymore.

I just read that on January 9th the PS4 will get season 7, and the remaining three tables of season 6 that we havent got yet, and a big patch with lots of bug fixes. Supposedly there is a new guy that is working there who is mainly in charge of the PS4 tables from the way it sounds. We will see i guess, im going to give him the benefit of the doubt for some dumb reason. I love The Pinball Arcade but i have become extremely disappointed in them lately.

Quoted from Reznnate:

I REALLY want to enjoy the real tables in Pinball Arcade but the lame lighting and HORRIBLE physics kills it. It's painful.
The Zen Pinball game is more fun.
In my recent frustration with it, I discovered a few original pinball video games that are fantastic. Check them out if you haven't seen them yet:
Pro Pinball Ultra
http://store.steampowered.com/app/287900/Pro_Pinball_Ultra/ - best video pinball game I've played...
Pinball Wicked

I like TPA and Zen both. They arent perfect but they are still pretty fun. I really like those games you posted also, id love to see those come to consoles.

Quoted from wolv3:

How long do these tables usually take to get to ps4?

Forever and then some.

Quoted from Kolchak357:

GarSight announced that they will no longer be releasing a pin every month. They say they will still release new pins, just not on any set schedule.

Isnt that how they do it now? I really like TPA and ive always kind of taken up for Farsight but i have lost all faith in them. I also hate to be critical and sound like a dick, but have you seen the two immature kids that does their streams? All you have to do is watch one of their streams and its easy to see why Farsight puts out a bad product and why it takes them forever to produce these tables.

Quoted from RatShack:

They should take a page from the Rocksmith guys, they also do a weekly stream including at least one of the devs and they demo the latest DLC with good production. It's an actual talk show.
I wonder what those guys actually do at Farsight, they're definitely not developers. Hopefully not QA.

I would guess that they probably clown around and screw off all day. They wouldn’t even make giid janitors because they’re too immature.

Quoted from Neal_W:

Big Buck Hunter and Whoa Nellie have been added today, and Mustang has been moved over from SPA. Guess they wanted to steal a little of FX3s thunder.
I don't recall ever playing BBH before. I has it's charm.

Im very leary of pinball arcade anymore after seeing how bad they are at fixing updates and how bad Ghostbusters turned out, saying that its horrible is an understatement.

I also hate to say this but its just the flat out truth. I can see why they arent a very good company anymore after watching the two guys that always do the streams on Twitch. Those guys literally act like they are about 10 f*cking years old. They are an embarrassment to the company. Their product is definitely a reflection of their employees these days. I used to back them tooth and nail but i just cant do it anymore.

Quoted from Neal_W:

Yea, just gave GB another try, and did see a couple hickups in an hour of play. Their Spike emulation needs tweaking. I recall running it in SPA, it will run without hickups (or was that DX9 mode?).

Yeah but im mainly talking about the game just doesnt feel right at all. I just think they did a terrible job at recreating it. They do a good job making these tables but GB just doesnt feel or look right imo.
