Who else has this game, and can they verify for me that it is the absolute worst pinball game ever?
I got it cheap on ebay, and the ad said "Best pinball game ever" and nothing else.  I felt cheated.  The game feels like it's on slow motion 98% of the time.  I can't imagine Panasonic felt it was ready to be released at this stage.  Or did I just get a bad copy?

Naw, it is a slow game. I have the Japanese version, Fireball. Yeah, I really feel there is a ball, but no fire whatsoever. I do think it's an okay pinball game as it can be fun at times. Still, I think it would have been better as a freebie or something instead of a fully priced 3DO release.

That's a shame.  I really enjoy pinball games.

Me too, especially after playing the "Real Pinball" games for the Saturn and the Last Gladiators, it is sometimes hard to look at this game and justify it.

I would really like to get a hold of Necronomicon Pinball for Saturn.  It's actually the reason I bought the system.  I just never got around to getting that game.  I thoroughly enjoy Ruiner Pinball on Jaguar.

Have fun finding Necronomicon. The game is a pain to find and that's that.

lol. i would only purchase this game from a collector's point of view and wouldn't even bother playing it. i'd probably just check that the disc wasn't scratched only. i played the demo on the sampler cd and found it to be completely awful.

I still say that it isn't the worst Pinball game I have ever played.

Real Pinball is good for what it is ... a representation of earlier pinball machines.  I went into it knowing what to expect (simple tables, only 1 view, little bells & whistles, etc...) so I enjoyed it.  Good alternative to the awesome & crazy PaTaank!

Speaking of pinball, I am excited that they are re-making the awesome tg16 game Alien Crush for the Wii  Very Happy

I don't understand how anyone can mess up a pinball game, it's such a simple concept :shrug:
