Hey all,

Wasn't sure where to post this, but I just wanted to bring attention to the fact that FarSight Studios seems to have undergone a pretty huge undertaking in the last month.  A massive, cross-platform, a-la-carte(?) digital pinball portal, with licensed tables from all of the major manufacturers coming in DLC format ... "for years to come"??  Shut up and take my money!

FarSight developed the "Pinball Hall of Fame" games for the consoles.  I own the Williams Collection for PS3 and I have to say, while it's not 100% perfect (you do, on rare occasion, get some impossible ball physics) it is a good alternative for those who don't want to wade through the other programs that are out there. 

I just DL'd the demo on my Android tab, and the presentation is very similar - playing on a touchscreen is a little weird, but its possible.  The promise of a PC/Mac version has me salivating a bit...
