The cost to play varies between 1 and 5 credits per table and this only allows you to play a table once before needing to use more credits. The rest can only be played by using credits that you earn in the game and can only be unlocked for freeplay once you achieve a set goal during play. When it comes to playing the tables themselves, only three are accessible from the start and all of these are set on “freeplay”. There are in fact only ten what I would consider to be pinball machines, one (Play-Boy) that dates from the 1930s which is more a random chance game, and two random luck arcade “games” that have no connection to pinball whatsoever. Okay, to say that there are thirteen pinball machines on this game as is advertised is a little generous. Once you’ve chosen the one you want to play, the game loads and you’re up and running. You can explore the arcade and selection which of the games you want to play as well as a couple of additional games that are on offer but I’ll come onto those in a minute. Starting off, the game presents you with a 3D arcade hall with the machines on display. In terms of the tables themselves there is a mix of traditional themes ranging from science fiction, sports, adventure, cartoon and several others and with a range of ages of machines emulated, there’s a wide variety in terms of style to choose from. It all began with this which collects no fewer than 13 old arcade machines and sets out to emulate all of them on the PSP as faithfully as possible…Īll of the machines on offer are – as the title implies – are from legendary pinball manufacturer Gottlieb and date from one of the very first tables from the 1930s right up to the 1990s so there’s a real mix of tables with something for everyone. Regardless, both have been developed by Farsight Studios who have since moved on from the PSP and are now known for producing the Pinball Arcade series of games recreating classic arcade pinball machines for the PS3, Xbox 360, PS Vita, iOS and other systems. This is a rather curious title as this – and it’s Williams Pinball counterpart have both been released twice for the PSP in slightly different forms in the “Classics” range and as part of the “Pinball Hall Of Fame” series, featuring exactly the same tables and game itself.
