I still want me some Cyclone, but hopefully that comes at some point. Wouldn't mind the Rollercoaster Tycoon table either.

YES! After months of trying and just nearly failing earlier this week, I finally beat my own record at Scared Stiff! Next goal: one billion points!

Jeez, I only topped over 100 million once and I was EXHAUSTED by the end. You gotta raise that multiplier bonus (by lighting the three Deadhead lights after completing the "Return of the Deadheads" tale). Not only does the bonus you get from each Deadhead become very big very fast (as it raises by 25 000 each time and carries over from one ball to the next), it gives you an insane amount of points during the end of ball bonus. You can easily get over 20 million points just from that. Oh and once you've raised the multiplier to 8x, you also light up the extra ball. Another thing to go for is the Spider bonus. You can light the extra ball by picking the three eyeball-shaped bonuses, you can get ANOTHER extra ball as a random bonus from the crystal balls and once you've completed it, you get the Spidermania mode and yet ANOTHER extra ball. Oh and for a few seconds all bonuses are doubled. And of course, the Scared Stiff mode will also give you a lot of points as you get 1 million points every time you shoot either the crate or either ramp AND it lights up the extra ball. And considering it's also a 3-balls multiball mode, you can rack up a lot of points very fast.

I just bought myself the Season 3 pack as it already has many tables I'm interested in and oh boy oh boy do I love it! I was especially pleasantly surprised by Junkyard as I remembered not liking it that much but I'm having a lot of fun playing it. I especially get a chuckle from the "time machine" mode, which actually yook me by surprise the first time I activated it and I heard Raul Julia jovially saying "THE MMMAAAAAMUSHKAAA!!".

Just received a message from their Steam group stating that the kickstarter for Addams' Family starts tomorrow. If they reach their goal, the table should be released in January of next year. They have also announced that the stretch goals are for more licensed tables yet to be announced, although they did also state that Farsight recently scored a bulk licensing deal with Sony.

The license table thing has always been the stretch goals. That's why Star Trek was cheaper than usual: $20k came from the Twilight Zone one.
I'm hoping the next one after this is Simpsons Pinball Party. It might be the most, but Simpson fans would probably fund it as well.

Also, Dracula releases today. Can't way to give this a shot as I don't think I've ever played it, even on Visual Pinball or Future Pinball.

Good start so far... they're already past the $20,000 mark.

So is Dracula the last table for Season 3? Can't find a definitive answer anywhere.

Yes it is. The next table will be the first table of Season 4.

Also, it's an awesome one. It's got a different feel than most horror-themed tables. It goes for a less humorous style and it works surprisingly well.

Bobby King of Farsight mentioned on the recent TPA Fans Podcast, BSD is part of a deal with Sony to put several of their licensed tables in TPA. The big thing out of this deal is going to be an original table from a Sony license that has never been made into a table before.
