 Arcade Pinball With No Waiting Lines!!!!!!! December 27, 2008
In one word, WOW! Having just got a PSP for Christmas and while on the hunt for games I came across this one just by chance. I read raving reviews and was hyped to play, though I still had my doubts. My doubt was that I had a sneaking suspicion that pinball on the PSP would be pretty much the same as every other video pinball game I've ever played. Great fun though horribly inacurate. Let me tell you now this is not like all the others I've played.
Graphics, sound, and physics are all melted together to the verge of perfection. Yes, the PSP's screen is limited here and at times it is difficult to track where your ball is, however this is not the fault of the game. The game dose a decent job of zooming in on bumpers and rails while paning out in time to focus on the flippers. The camera movements feel natural and dont throw you off at all. The physics are on as well with no unnatural floating or bumping. Sound effects accompany perfectly with the sound of a metal pinball rolling down the board while picking up speed is dead on. Seriously, it's that good.
Now The Games!
Those same chills I used to get as a kid from making a pinball board flash multicolored lights and making that reverberating rumble sound have been brought back. Load screens feature the original back glass graphics that bring back memories for me. The games span from 1970 to the early 1990's and offer a good variaty of boards from simple bumper and fliper to elaborate rails and chutes with a whole gag bag of lights and sounds.
The main screen is also set in an arcade which is a nice touch.
To put it blunt, if you like pinball, get this. Yes, it can take a toll on your eyes after a while. So what, put on a pair of glasses. Where else can you relive the glory days of pinball while driving to Florida.
Much cheaper than owning the real thing! July 7, 2008

I love pinball! My brother and I have 2, a Funhouse and a Whirlwind. They're in his basement and once in a while I get the chance to go over there and play them. With the PSP version I can play them anytime! I would love to get a PinBot, High Speed, Fish Tales, Addams Family, Twilight Zone, ST: TNG, etc... but there's no way I can afford all of them. At the very least I can play Pinbot and other classics on my PSP. Did I mention that I love pinball?

What a great game! Crave has done a masterful job of assembling these vintage tables in one game. The game play is fun and furious, the sound effects dead-on and this game has great replayability. Being able to rotate the game view 90 deg. to take advantage of the PSP's 16:9 aspect ratio is genius - tables display perfectly (I use table view #3) without the annoying "follow the ball" camera actions of other pinball sims. The only drawback to this is that the plunger / nudge functions are controlled from the analog stick, requiring the user to make a somewhat awkward reach...
Did you know that you can beam tables to other PSP owners in ad-hoc mode?
An Excellent Pinball Sim May 18, 2008

I had almost given up on Crave Entertainment after sampling their Gottlieb Pinball Collection offering. There is a special place reserved in the Netherworld for companies that rush their product to market without properly debugging their games. The Gottlieb Collection was chock full of annoying glitches that were so disadvantageous to the player that I alomst swore off pinball sims altogether. Fortunately, Their Williams Collection shows that Crave really can put out an excellent product. I have always preferred Williams games in the arcade, with so many outstanding video and pinball games that have since achieved legendary status.
As you have read in other reviews, features such as "The Williams Challenge" and some of the unlocking bonuses that are earned for gameplay really help to keep the player engaged. I had originally purchased this collection for the "Black Knight" emulation, but have discovered the joy of such games as "Funhouse" and "Taxi" which really were superior in physical form. The simulations are so close to accurate in so many ways that it is hard to find much to complain about, except for the tendancy for the balls to bound about in identical patterns. This does not hamper gameplay, as it doesn't happen in most situations and when it does, it can often serve as an advantage to the player. The original music that plays between table choices is well done and very evocative of the late 80s and early 90, having a very live sounding feel and displaying excellent music compositional ability. Crave Entertainment has won me back and I look forward to their next offerings. In the meantime, you should give this pinball sim a whirl...you won't be disappointed.
