Awesome news on the tables! Ghostbusters too. I wonder if Game of Thrones/Metallica will eventually be included.

The website http://sternpinballarcade.com/ could really do with an update.....

Facebook post a few hours ago announced that AC/DC has released on that platform that no one actually has. Whoopee.

Still says Ver 1.0, released 5/27/16.

Have they actually pushed an update? Because there isn't one available to me.

Regardless, I'm not paying $10 for a new table if they haven't fixed Star Trek or optimized the others. But why fix existing tables when you already got the money and could sell a new one that you know everyone wants!?

EDIT: i got the update. Nothing about improvements to existing tables in the version notes. My SST does seem to be running better than before. Can anyone with Star Trek confirm improvements? Someone willing to gamble on AC/DC?

EDIT 2: I spoke too soon! Still experiencing minor slowdown occasionally during normal play and MAJOR slowdown during multiball. Still not worth $5 for this performance quality, absolutely not worth $10.

You are very welcome. I know many folks hate Facebook.
Looks pretty great to me. Can't wait for this one to hit iOS.

As much as I'm psyched for ACDC as well as Star Trek, am I the only one who thinks the graphics look like crap. There's no dynamic lighting. It's so blah... It basically looks like ios or android. I really hope these tables look better on PS4.

The Stern Pinball Arcade still feels very new, and it might take some time before everything is caught up to speed for the DX11 version on PC, as well as other platforms.

Keep in mind, this is the GearVR version.

Who knows what version this is, plus it's from YouTube. I assume the PC and console versions will look better. People will freak out if they don't look great, especially for $10.

This is the mobile version, not PC. And it's mobile VR, it's gonna look pretty weak.

I will say that the ball physics in SPA feel slightly improved. Maybe it's in my head.

After all FS's hype about vastly improved graphics in SPA, it's going to take more than a little dx11 lighting to deliver an impressive product, imho.

I saw a gameplay video for Star Trek and it looked terrible, granted this is Android we're talking about here. Hoping that the Steam product is a hell of a lot better.
