Qapla' A Star Trek pinball simulation, thanks Interplay (or more, thanks to those who develop it)! I love Star Trek, so this will absolutely be something I get hold off. Hopefully it is good too... Hope they didn't just go after the fact that it is Star Trek and because of that will sell. One of the tables will feature a multiplayer mode that can be played over network and modem, will be interesting to try out! It also seems like the tables will feature the voices of the actors from the tv series, yeah! Now, read on and... check out the screenshots!


Pinball Comments

These are not my comments, but since I haven't played the pinball this will at least give you someones first opinion on the pinball...

It is based on the Hyper 3D Pinball engine - unfortunate. The ball handling - well, you know. Also, the visuals are not as stunning as led to believe. Worst is that the network play features have been disabled - with a patch promised.

Oh well - it still has music and original voices. Have not played it enough to comment on the tables.

The Pinballs Features

Star Trek Pinball is the only licensed Star Trek pinball simulation with multiple tables and multi-player, head-to-head gameplay. The Star Trek universe comes alive in three unique tables with original series Star Trek art, voices, and sound effects. Realistic pinball action includes multiple ball play, ramps, tilting - everything a great pinball game should have. Add to that multi-player mayhem where players can face down opponents side-by-side, over a LAN, or by modem, and you've got one great pinball simulation.
