Quoted from puck:Pinball Arcade anyone? Was enough of the code finished?
Seems so. It has some bugs, but has modes that pay out, a final kingpin mode that pays out, and a wizard mode that is quite clever. Add to that the Sudden Death mode. I imagine it could do with a bit of tweaking, but it certainly works well as is. Add to that the wonderfully laid out playfield design, it is a special package.
Quoted from vid1900:What makes Kingpin cool is that it's badassed.
No little kid comic book or dinosaurs of rock theme, just get the Guns, pay off the Cops, murder the chick and do some Crimes!
Exactly!!
Quoted from PinballShawn:Just recently a new version of this came out for my virtual cab (I know, boo!). Although it's not 'real' is does give one a great idea of game play and rules, etc. I don't know guys, I'm just not into it and I played it about 100 times. I kept trying to find something about it I really liked because I really do like BBB (in the real world), not $20,000 worth but it's a good game. It's funny and unique, good call outs, good artwork, nice playablity, I didn't get the same vibe from KP. It's like, ok, but when things approach 10k it better be damn cool. There is rule that says because something is limited that it will be worth a fortune in the near future. Yeah, if there are 8 of them then I get it, but an actual run may not get the BBB money.
I think it's layout is superior to BBB, and gameplay from what I have been able to tell no less. It's theme is cool, but not as cool as BBB.
As a Capcom guy I would pay reasonable coin, but to a lot of others it might just be another game and that will reflect any pricing you would think.
IPB did have 150+ people of its list from what I heard, so there is some demand around.
