The trigger buttons on the Wii Remote and Nunchuk are used to activate the right and left flippers, respectively, the analog stick launches the ball, and gently flicking either controller nudges the table. Regardless of which table you're playing, you'll find that Pinball Hall of Fame's emphasis is on giving you controls that make sense rather than on trying to do anything too clever with motion-sensing. Being told that you're a "Tommy wannabe" is a nice reference to The Who's dark, pinball-themed rock opera, but it really isn't what you want to hear after taking the time to achieve high scores on 10 tables. What do you get? You get a score that you can tell your friends about, and a ranking based on how much you beat the target scores by. The scores really aren't tough to beat once you learn your way around the tables, which is just as well given that your reward for completing the mode is disappointing to say the least. You get three attempts at each table, and if you fail you have to go back to the first table again. The challenge mode tasks you with achieving target scores on all 10 tables in a single play session. You can choose to practice on tables in a mode that awards you tokens based on your scores and the completion of table-specific goals you can play against up to three friends in tournaments that span multiple tables or you can take on the time-consuming Williams Challenge.
PS3 PINBALL ARCADE WILLIAMS COLLECTION MOVIE
Pinball Hall of Fame's horribly compressed intro movie makes a poor first impression, but once you step into the virtual arcade that serves as the collection's menu system things instantly start looking up. Jive Time is the oldest table in the collection. Older tables like 1970's Jive Time bear little resemblance to the likes of Whirlwind and Funhouse that were released 20 years later, and playing through this collection in chronological order is a fun way to see how Williams' offerings evolved during that time. Not all of the featured tables can be considered classics, but if the lineup was chosen specifically to offer plenty of variety, then it's most definitely a success. That's not true, no matter how much we'd like it to be, but there's no denying that this collection of 10 tables has plenty to offer for anyone with a penchant for pinball. The glory days of pinball are back, at least according to the packaging for Pinball Hall of Fame: The Williams Collection.
