[QUOTE="joeblow, post: 271199, member: 2178"] I, for one, am extremely happy about the news. The way that Farsight has handled the quality control of these tables over the past 4+ years has been an abomination. On the PS4 side, the sound effects were broken for years, and once they finally fixed it, they broke the lighting on the tables for years. That's not to mention how long the game wouldn't track friends' scores, which is something the release on the last generation of consoles was able to do. All the fake promises and finger pointing (except at themselves) really burned me out on what was once one of my favorite franchises going back to the PS3. Yeah, the last few months have FINALLY brought about some improvements, but perhaps that was only because they saw this day coming as they scrambled to get their act together. Too little, too late. Sure, plenty of games stop getting tech support as they age, but they had no problem releasing new tables and taking people's $$$ while the overall engine was so shoddy on some platforms; reap what you sow. For the past few years I was rooting for some company to take over Farsight, but seeing them lose their most important license is the next best thing. So maybe the license will now go to someone that will actually try to maintain at least a basic level of quality like we see in tables from non-authentic pinball game makers, but even if that doesn't happen, I'm not going to feel bad for FS at all. I've learned my lesson: [IMG]https://i.imgur.com/yTV5iVi.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
