It's been quite a while since our last pinball release so we'd like to make up for it by giving you 5 titles for the price of one - the uber-nostalgic Pinball Gold Pack.

[url=http://www.gog.com/en/gamecard/pinball_gold_pack][/url]So, how does the Pinball Gold Pack compare to the other pinball releases on GOG.com? First of all, you get five games - Pinball Dreams 1 and 2, Pinball Fantasies, Pinball Mania, and Pinball Illusions, each featuring four pinball tables. That's twenty tables in total, each with a unique theme. The physics are reasonable, but can hardly be compared to those found in newer, more technologically advanced pinball games, for obvious reasons. There's one thing the Pinball Gold Pack has that its younger cousins don't - the sheer oldschool, nostalgic feeling you get when you play it. The fact that the game used .MOD files for music, in order to save space, might bring a tear to some of you PC veterans' eyes, too. Care to take a trip back in time for less than 10 bucks?

Pinbal Dreams 1 + 2, Pinball Mania AND Pinbal Illusions in a single pack? That's nice. Thanks GoG!

Anyway, I'm still hoping for Battlezone..

Cool Beans!

Instabuy! :D

(Though you'll need a pretty good sale, if you want me to part with anymore cash this week! :D)

But it is on sale. The sale price just happens to be $9.99.

Think of it as a 0% off introductory price. ;)

Now, there are very good games in these four. At least the tables in Pinball Fantasies were really really fun, and I like Pinball Illusions too.

MOD music could be quite annoying, physics made the ball seem more like a ping pong ball than a metalic one, but the games were simply fun. Now bring epic pinball and silverball!

well aren't you clever

Bought. I've wanted these on GOG for a long time. Real classics.

(though it's too bad SlamTilt did not make it into the pack)

I remember having one of the games in this pack as a child. Which one, I don't know. But I recognized some of the boards in the screen shots.

Nice pack, but I don't really enjoy virtual pinball.
I might pick it up when it's on sale someday though.

Omigawd, with sale prices like that, you're gonna need to do car wash fund drives! :D

Excellent release! Really worth the price.

Just bring on the Epic Pinball and Extreme Pinball to form true GOG pinball-powerhouse!
