Customer Reviews of Pinball Hall of Fame: The Williams Collection

greatest collectiion Of Pinball games ever!
Wow I love this game game, I ordered mine Sat the first of March and have gotten it today the 4th that's pretty amazing in itself. This Collection of pinall has some of the all time greatest pinball machines ever created, and it does them all well. I have played 9 of the ten machines selected here in real life. I have to say they are as close as I have seen in the video game medium. The controls with the Wii version are the best emulated pinball controls yet. Everything works perfectly with both hands controlling the action and shake of either the Wiimote or the Nun Chuck to shake the table. I also like that the games do not tilt as easily as the Gottlieb version of PBHF. <

>The only gripe I have is I would like to see some of those acrade video games as unlockables or a hidden pinball machine or two, that is a fairly minor gripe as this is an amazing pinball collection. It just seems its awfully bare for an arcade and all those fake machines are kind of an annoyance. They could easily add a dart board or pool table as extra unlockables, just in case you want a break from Pinball. But hey this is pinball hall of fame, just putting out a few Ideas. Anyone who loves pinball owes it to themselfs to check this game out. It really is flippertastic! Well worth the full retail price.

Best Video Pinball to date.
Being a pinball nut, I basically collect all things pin-related; videogame recreations of the silver ball game being one of them. Through the years, It has gotten progressively better with the Super Pinball series, the Pro Pinball series, and the incredible DIY future pinball and visual pinball releases. I've got to say, after having played this for a few hours, Pinball Hall of Fame: the Williams Collection is hands-down the best simulation to date. First and foremost, all camera and physics issues I had problems with in the Gottlieb collection have been taken care of - I've yet to feel that sinking feeling that the camera can't keep up with a ball hurtling toward the center gap - the "Smart Camera" truly is smart. <
>The recreations themselves are spot-on. Having spent some serious time on most of the machines represented here in their actual form, I was pleased that almost all the tables held up (no experience personally with Jive Time - and really... that's the EM machine you choose out of all of them for this? seems bizarre.. ) to their real-life counterparts. <
>The control in this game certainly raises VP games to a new level - the simple act of being able to have your hands seperated between the remote and nunchuk like you would on a real machine helps quite a bit, and being able to tilt the machine with gestures is just fantastic and really brings you into the game. <
>Now, the most MAJOR improvement for me between this game and the gottlieb one is this: No more freakin' crickets in the background. What was the deal with that? In this version, you can choose to just hear the table itself, which is a godsend. The gottleb version had this amazingly annoying cricket just chirping in the background to add to the "realism"..>!!!! but with no option to step on it as you would want to in real life. <
>While- of course, this is no substitute for the real thing, The Williams Collection does an impressive job of capturing the essence of the game as well as its addictive quality .. "just one more game..." Now - if Crave could just release more of these titles with the same engine!!!!! Maybe download more tables via Wii-Ware in the future? ah, we can only hope. Hopefully more than 5 people buy this, it's a great addition to the Wii library!!!!

Now THIS is gaming!
I agree with the other positive reviews of this game! I received it the day after it was released, and so far I am thrilled with the gameplay of the tables I've tried. The graphics, ball physics, and sounds are fantastic, and I am enjoying switching the various camera angles during play. I do believe this one will have longevity in my Wii catalog!
