That and ST:TNG are 2 of the finest widebodies of the 90s.

"DON'T TOUCH THE DOOR."
"THE ROBOTS CAN HELP."
"POW ER BALL"
"THANK YOU MR DATA"
"WE DON'T HAVE TIME FOR YOUR GAMES"

Hoping to play PHOF a little bit more today.

The new June tables have to be out soon, right? Isn't Funhouse one of them?

I hope they get Star Trek also. Man, these are great.

Just got the Pinball Hall of Fame: Gottileb Collection for PS2. Pretty awesome. But now I just want the Williams Collection even more because it has more modern tables (80s & 90s) that I remember playing.

So the Pinball Arcade DLC of Bride of Pin-bot and Medevil whatever is on PSN - $4.99. I read the entire description, looked all around - looks like the real deal.

I download it - and it's PS Vita only?? It doesn't say Vita ANYWHERE until you go to install it on your dashboard.

When I launched the PS3 game there was not any kind of add-on or new tables.

I thought you got both versions upon buying so I'm kind of confused.

Oh, maybe I need to just wait a bit. Hmm
Purchasing the DLC for either the Vita or PlayStation 3 should unlock the content for both versions of the game but, at this point, the new tables have not been added for the PS3. The new tables were released rather unceremoniously and neither Sony nor developer Farsight Studios has offered comment as to why the console version DLC been delayed.

Also enjoying Big Shot on the PHOF Gottlieb collection. Like Spirit of '76 on Pinball Arcade, the gap between the flippers appears to be a mile wide. Like those 1970's tables but don't like that gap! :lol:

Has anyone played the Sony produced DLC only Pinball game from 2009? Has tables like Uncharted and Hot Shots Golf 3 on it? The complete bundle of all 4 is $9.99.

I've been very much interested in these but waiting for a sale since there are two bundles (8 different tables) and I keep expecting them to be included in a sale around a new release in one of the included series. $5 each is a good "take a gamble" price. $10 is not.

I plan to download the new Farsight tables when they hit the PS3 just so I can be sure I get them for both it and Vita. That'll be in a week or so, when 4 tables will be released at once.

Ah so all four will be released at once. I figure I'm ok with my earlier purchase - I can "re-download" at any time if needed once they are enabled for PS3 and the price should be the same. I don't think I wasted $5 as I first thought.
