Best Pinball game on Amiga...

Which one of these - mostly known - pinball games is the BEST according to you. (I wonder if you'll go into retro or newest )

I vote for (the middle-time): Slam Tilt

Well, the Digital Illusions games are good, Pinball Dreams, Fantasies, Illusions. Slam Tilt was a good pinball game too. I'm going to choose Pinball illusions even though it only had three tables, why? Hmmm..I suppose because I like the tables best....I'll always remember putting out the fires on the Law and Justice table...great music!! Babewatch music was pretty catchy too!! Extreme Sports was fun the more you played it... It had one great piece of music....hmmm..when you bungee jump maybe? I remember shouting at the screen....give me Bungee Jump, give me Bungee Jump!! then thinking give me the multiball...watch as that score goes up!! Ooow..I do love the Amiga.

I wish somebody would do a Theme Park table....would be cool!! yeah!! or did they? going on the rollercoaster!!!! So many ideas!!

You missed Obsession Pinball?? Remember it? The first table was quite good.

Thanks,
- Hillsy.

Pinball Fantasies wins hands down. Illusions didn't have the playability any more and the Dreams tables weren't as good as in Fantasies.

Apart from the DI games, I've only played Pinball Wizard and .. well I guess it's a game of it's time, eh?

Slam Tilt BABY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It was simply the best home version of pinball EVER. Still nothing has beaten it. And there was no need for swapping disks because the game was fully hd installable! BRILLIANT! Highly recommended if you haven't played it, but if you have, you should have voted for it! SO PREPARE TO DIE.

I thought I'd played all of the Amiga Pinball games, but Slam Tilt is a new name to me. So I'll be back after I've checked it out.

Ok I'm back. I cant belive I missed out on this one, its superb. Well thats my day planned. PINBALL PINBALL PINBALL!

I haven't played Pinball Nights. What's that like?

Out of the ones I've played (which is everything else on the list), I must say it's a tie between all 21st Century titles with a little dignity (which means Pinball Dreams, Fantasies, Illusions and Slamtilt). These games all have their strong points, but the physics on Illusions are a bit odd on a rare occasion, but doesn't detract from the gameplay.

Amiga is and will always be the king of Pinball games.

Also tried Pinball Brain Damage some days ago. I was actually quite impressed, very nice graphics and nice gameplay. Not tried it for many minutes though, so I can't give a thorough impression.

Just had a good go of slam tilt, it flashed Bat Butcher which I gleefully shouted. My brothers reply was Pat Butcher??? I lost that ball through lauging. Well I guess you had to be there. Just in a sharing mood today (but not regarding money)

Ever play Addiction Pinball for the PC? Best Pinball sim ever. Granted Slam Tilt was the best Amiga pinball game, but your claim that it's the best pinball game ever seems a bit... well, not true.

Why is that? Perhaps he thinks it is? There's no such thing as a "wrong" opinion, as long as it's an opinion.

BTW, there's absolutely no reason Pinball Nights should be in the poll options. It's a compilation of Pinball Dreams, Fantasies, Illusions, Hazard and Obsession, dammit!
