No, there will be Season 8. Embryon may lead it off.

They'll be taking a month off after Banzai Run to bug-fix.

+1 for Johnny Mnemonic

As for Aaron Spelling Pinball, I have no words (still in shock.) Hopefully only 2 tables have been produced. We're safe

Yeah, decent drop target game. A bit underrated since it gets bashed for being a Premier. Great music and nice art. And you've gotta love the blatant Transformers knockoff character they advertised it with.

The pre dot matrix premiere games were better than the post ones, overall (Stargate being the main exception)

If it's a licensed table: Johnny Mnemonic
If it's a Williams: Police Force
If it's a Bally/Midway: Mousin Around
If it's a Classic Stern: Big Game
If it's a Gottlieb: HOOPS

True, no one has actually said 'season 8', but then they never said 'season 7' either, it just got listed as such within the game when the first table came out. I'm really hoping for a gap month again, as a lot of good came out of last year's.

Unfortunately TPA is in a state such that a year gap would probably still not be enough to fix most of the problems. GB framerate, mid-table seams (still) on Road Show and Xenon, just to name a couple, tables with goals not triggering (Sorcerer is only the latest), updates that botch your progress, emulation for more SS tables, not being able to upgrade to pro seasons (was going to upgrade my six and seven seasons-can't now), new physics, still no floodlights on DX11 LCA (seriously, even DX9 had those), borked-up menus, still so tied up with TPA that one table a year comes out for SPA, and even fewer bug-fixes for that one. But the worst offense is every time there's a new update, another classic table I've already paid for table becomes unplayable.

The sad part is I'm sure I missed something.

Sadly, nothing you said was incorrect. For as much as I love this game, I've never seen so many problems, over so many years, from a gaming company.

You love the game because you love pinball and a lot of these tables.

No one *loves* TPA. I put up with it because I have to but it's only my passion for pinball that keeps me coming back. It's downright garbage software and its only strength comes from the pre-existing pinball tables it attempts to simulate.

Want to see Johnny in TPA too, with a real slow spinner - the spinner breaks the game if it is too oiled up and spinning like crazy.

So happy I can play Paragon now; it is the stock table every time I startup TPA :D
