SlamIt Pinball Big Score

• Steam user Steam user …0009Steam reviews · Dec 14, 2013 · 1 h played

  SlamIt Pinball offers just one single table, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, and at this point I would have liked to tell you something about how it plays. But the game gave me a challenge I wasn't up to: Some moments into a match the game crashed... every time. Rarely I've experienced such a bug-ridden, broken piece of software. The fact that its release dates back to 2007 and its still in an unplayable state today is a clear hint that the devs abandoned their game. There are even…

  I picked it up for $0.99 (a while back), and I still want my money back. This is a buggy, broken game that should never have been allowed on Steam. If you are looking for a good pinball game, ANYTHING ELSE would be better than this pile of garbage. Do. Not. Buy. I should have written this review the moment I gave up on this game, because if this review can stop someone from wasting even a penny on this game, then I've done my job.

  This game is broken and has been for years. If you have a controller plugged in to your USB port the game will likely crash on launch. If you play without a controller plugged in the game will work for a while THEN crash. A patch was released years ago which purported to fix these problems but didn't. Not that it matters, since the Steam version isn't patched anyway. The game is a ripoff at any price, save your money for something better like tables for Pinball FX2 or Pinball Arcade.

  This game was one of the first I ever bought on steam, it didnt work then and it doesnt work now. Upon clicking play it just crashes, Hard to believe this is still on steam. Seems it doesnt work for around 99% of people hence the lack of reviews. Rating: 0/10 Value: $0.00

  9/13/2021 - A new perspective on this game, considering many games came out after this: WOW, is all I can say about this creation. Before anyone asks, no, I'm not changing my stance, because of what's happened since, but with a concept like freeform nudging, this is WAY ahead of its time. We have had many different pinball games with great physics, but most of them fall short. Pinball Arcade steers the ball as part of its nudging, FX3 suffers from nudge passing especially on recreations, and…

  This is a definitive "DO NOT BUY". You can harangue this game into working, but even on modern hardware produced years after this game was released, it will still run at a terrible frame-rate. That is unfortunate, because the table layout and game itself are actually interesting. If you want to play pinball, there are thankfully more options on Steam now. Pinball FX2, Pinball Arcade, and Worms Pinball are all more worthy of your time. Deck update: This was always going to run better under an…

  I got this on sale for under two bucks and have found that the well-known bugs are indeed difficult to keep playing around. How could I completely resist a crime-themed pinball table--almost like a cross between pinball and PAYDAY! It's a shame this game is bug-ridden and will never be fixed, because the table seems pretty cool. You can play as a cop or a crook, meaning you'll get to try different missions on the table depending on which side you chose. The table looks good and the pinball…

  Game has serious issues, the bumpers lag, trying to change options can crash it to desktop, the sound can infinite loop at one single point for no reason, also it seems abandoned. Do your karma a favour and buy the dollar menu at your local MD's and give it to the homeless instead.

  Got it a few years ago on sale for really cheap, played it for 10 minutes and erased the game. It's not a fun game and it only has one table, there are far better pinball games out there with alot of tables that playes way better then this old thing. Alot of ppl says you cant even play it more then the 10 min i did because it crashes all the time and that have never been fixed. Dont buy it, dont even except it as a gift. This is by far the worst game on my Library.

  Big Score is based around a classic story of police vs. criminals in a fight for a big score. The fantastic action will leave you breathless and will pump-up your adrenaline while you are rescuing your ball, trying to hit that last glowing target. Big Score can be played by four players, where you will be able to steal points and achievements from your playing partners. You will have to: risk a lot, airball a lot, save balls from jail, rush them across the bridge, break the safe code, play…

  Works great/smooth for me on Windows 10 64-bit in 1980 by 1080, albeit I am using a Radeon HD R9-390 video card which runs everything. (replaced with 1660Ti in 2020) Played multiple games no crashes. Read that it's a dead title because the main programmer was killed in a car accident in 2010. RIP This thumbs up for you! I enjoyed the table, not pinball snob though.

  So bought this game years ago for a buck or something like that. I gotta say it's pretty sweet. I don't have any of the bugs other users reported, game is fluent and i can play for hours without a crash what so ever. It is only one table yeah, but you get to choose between four characters if you will and therefor you get some different objectives during the game. For the price i bought it for it is defenitely a good game and like every good Pinball game a real timekiller.

  This is a hidden gem, I seriously don't know why it has so many negative reviews. Maybe it's been updated since those were written? I used my wired Xbox One controller for it in 2022 with no problem. Played a few games so far. I play and own every Pinball FX 3, The Pinball Arcade, and Zaccaria tables here on Steam and SlamIt Pinball Big Score is definitely polished and plays as it should. It's right up there with Pro Pinball Ultra.

  I love slamit pinball. You can play the game two ways. First time you go up a colored ramp you are picking that side to play for. Either cop or robber. The table took some slight adjustments in the editor till it was the angle I am comfortable with but after that it is a very deep game when it comes to unlocking the vault and breaking into the bank. The safe combo has sweet effects to it too and multiball gets nuts. Great table for the price.

  This game has only one table. If you already have Pinball FX2 (Most stuff/currently the market leader) or Dream Pinball 3D (unique elements/long games) then this game is just a curiosity. Nothing wrong with it. It just cannot possiblty compete against the old king of pinball and the new king with just one table that looks like it was left out of Dream Pinball 3D. Buy it if you 'have to get them all'. No other good reason for that as you might as well use the money to grab more FX2 tables.

  It is a good game when it works. It is very buggy it crashed when I had windows XP then I upgraded to windows 7 and still crashed with all the newest drivers for my machine. Too bad Technetium Games won't go back over this and give it a patch or an update with more tables.

  Really a sad case with this one, I genuinely have no idea how a game can run so poorly regardless of your system. Overall it seems like such a well crafted table with decent physics and nudging, but the game just runs like straight ass. Hopefully this can receive mods or just be fixed and re-released by a new developer. Real shame this fell victim to what (I'm assuming) is poor optimization or computer hardware changing since 2009. I will unfortunately be refunding this.

  It's only one table, and it does not work on new PC. However, I was able to make it work on my Steam Deck. It's a nice simple pinball table that I play once in a while. I find the ball physic better than the new Pinball FX and the sound effects are nice. Note that you need to define your own control scheme on the deck to make it work, and some configuration in the menu will crash the application (like trying to configure a gamepad). You need to configure the game as if you were playing on…

  Can't get it to load, not even with a patch. Steam should have the patch already installed when it is purchased and loaded. Probably still would not work. What's worse is that there is no contact at Steam to make it work. Lesson learned. Avoid this one like the plague.

  What's not to love about pinball on the PC? I don't find it a particularly great pinball game, but pinball is fun by definition. If you are a pinball lover, this is probably right up your alley. But if you have a console, you would be much better served to purchase Pinball Hall of Fame, The Williams Collection. That game is a blast and recreates real old school classic pinball games of the past.
