Just in case anybody here doesn't know, the next table pack is announced, and Harley Davidson is the table coming with Taxi. Can anybody vouch whether Harley Davidson is any good?

Also, the Kickstarter for Star Trek is only $10k away from reaching its funding goal.

How are people doing in the GC leaderboard? I managed to claw my way up to #26 (so close to actually being on the board!), but I've since slid back to #41.

I haven't been playing the iOS version much because the control with a touch screen is so much worse than with a console's controller. The game is way more fun on my 360, even though it's behind in releases. So I've been playing on 360. If somebody would make a stick on arcade button sort of like the Fling controllers (which I tried as buttons, but they don't help), that would solve (most) of the problem. They don't have to be full size, but they do have provide some resistance so you can rest your thumbs on them without depressing them. Surely somebody could start a Kickstarter for that. I'd be first to pledge money.

Still waiting for the update with Taxi, which should be released this weekend.
One Table in the next update will be "No good Goofers", not quite a favourite table of me.

Cant wait for more tables, PA its a total trip through memory lane for me but I must say that Crystal Caliburn has spoiled me a little. After spending way too much time on that table Ive found the physics on PA to be a little on the bouncy/too light ball side, dont get me wrong I still love this game to death but I must take my hat off to the guys at LittleWing.

One question, does the Addams family pinball is considered for this o no dice? I loved that obe back in the day.

No good Gofers?? Hell, yeah! Played this table a week ago for the first time, it was standing next to a great Medieval Madness, but I spent all my money on the Gofers, totally fell in love with that table. So, good news to me!

Already played the update on my android cellphone. Cant wait to get it on my big ipad screen. Taxi is great. Interesting at Harley is the additional button to raise a blocker between the to flipperfingers. The button is placed at the right
Screen side a little bit above the bottom. Exactly, where the magma save buttons at black knight should have been. I hope, farsight will place the buttons for black knight there in an update. They dont make any sense on top of the screen.

Here is the last official word on The Addams Family:

"We love the Addams Family table, and we would be very excited to digitize and preserve it! However this table is an even bigger licensing challenge than the Twilight Zone or Star Trek: The Next Generation. We are working on identifying all the required licenses. We won't ask for money for it until we're sure we can secure all of the licenses we'd need to do it.." Source: See the Q&A section at the bottom here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...-twilight-zone

Then there is this tidbit that I believe is referring to The Addams Family:

"...although we can't name names yet, we are very close to lining up all the licenses we'd need to do an extremely famous top-ten table. Stay tuned!" Source here: http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...e/posts/248575

So, it is very likely, but they will have to do a Kickstarter on it because the license will be too expensive to make it lucrative for them otherwise.

On that note... they are getting really close on the Star Trek: The Next Generation Kickstarter... so anyone on the fence about contributing... now is the time... you can simply consider it a pre-order of the new table at a slightly higher price (but well worth it): http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/...xt-generation/

My two favorite tables of all time:

- The Addams Family
- Star Trek: The Next Generation

I never really clicked with The Twilight Zone, but I backed it anyways in hope they would get enough last go around for Star Trek, and because I would like to become more familiar with TZ to see if it does grow on me (it can't be the #1 rated table for nothing). I'm backing ST:TNG too of course, and I'll be in for at least $100 if they do Addams Family.
