Re: pinball

The best one I ever played was "Pinball Fantasies" (or "Pinball Dreams"), by "21st Century Entertainment" and "Frontline Design". A DOS game, incredibly nice grafix and sound for that time. The background-music actually consisted of MOD files, I mean, believe it, back in 1992. Also, the pc speaker produced an output just like from your soundcard speakers, quite good quality even, just like playing wave files from it. Never seen something like that in any other game. Worked fine on 386 20Mhz, too.
2D, but it really shows, that 3D isn't necessary for good pinball games.
4 rocking tables. Wow, what a game.

Newer game: 3D Ultra Pinball: Thrillride.

that be epic pinball. and amazingly the shareware runs fine on my computer. Sounds and all. (amazingly because many times older games will run SUPER fast and need to be slowed down).

Visual PinMame is pretty cool. Needs a bit of configuring but you do get to play real pinball tables. The table roms are (or at least used to be) freely downloadable - I think this is due to allowing Legit Pinball table owners to fix the roms on the tables.

Also Visual PinMame is built on Visual Pinball which is a vb scripted 3d pinball table creator, so there is a large selection of tables being built by various people which are not actually commercial builds. Someone is working on the Pinball Dreams tables for this too
