Povezave: ----------- "Amstrad/Schneider CPC verzija\../../../CPC/Games/Html/3DPinball.php" ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Opisi: -------- (Crash, #76, Maj 1990, Overall 42%\../../WOS/Crash7600047.jpg) ------------------------------------- Pinball games have been around on the Spectrum since the year dot,so why have Mastertronic decided to produce another one? The only thing that makes 3D Pinball any different to many ot the others is that it's supposed to be in 3D. All that's really been done is the pinball table has been drawn on an angle — the ball itself isn't in 3-D, and the game controls exactly the same way as any other. There are no really special features about the table, all the bumpers and dials have been used hundreds of times before. They all have fancy names to make them more interesting though. The Black Hole' for example, is really a little hole at the top of the table and the 'Tombstone Targets' are three things that look like dominos! The name of the game is collecting a high score: not too exciting, but all fans of pinball will find it a challenge. You are supposed to collect massive bonuses by spinning a gadget here and twiddling a thingamigig there. Trouble is that when I play, the ball only stays on the table for a couple of seconds! Sound effects are basic, with an interesting (ahem) 48K tune at the beginning of every game. Colour unfortunately clashes quite a lot, as you can see from the screen shot. 3D-Pinball will keep fans of the game occupied for at least hatf an hour as long as they're not expecting anything original from it. (Crash, #85, Februar 1991, Nick, Overall 40%\../../WOS/Crash8500055.jpg) ----------------------------------------------- Despite the inlay and the software referring to totally different games this is quite a reasonable attempt at pinball. The game on the inlay is called 3-D Pinball and on the tape it's Pinball Power! All the features ot a normal pinball table are here. Bonus dials, rollover lanes, bumbers, hairpins, targets and of course the all important flippers have all been included (it's a good job the flippers have or you wouldn't have much fun!). The board is drawn 3D style, tilted slightly backwards and the ball goes in front of and behind the various obstacles very convincingly. My main moan is that there's only one pinball table to choose from. This severely restricts playability as you very easily get fed up of going through the same motions and hitting the same bonus targets all the while. The main aim in this seems to be to get the biggest score possible, but this just does not excite me. 3-D Pinball is a very basic pinball simulation and lacks lastability. {Sinclair User, #99, May 1990, Jim Douglas, Overall 68%\../../WOS/SinclairUser09900061.jpg} ---------------- {Your Sinclair, #54, June 1990, Bargain Basement, Jonathan Davies, 79%\../../WOS/YourSinclair5400051.jpg} ---------------- {Computer & Video Games, #103, June 1990, Overall 55%\../../WOS/CVG103Jun90_66.jpg} ------------------------- Pomoč: -------- {Sinclair User, #112, June 1991, Hacking Squad, Mark Dawson\../../WOS/SinclairUser11200019.jpg} ----------------
