For a new game, you would think no more scrolling. WRONG. This game is slow, scrolls the entire screen, and a big loss. If you like pinball, you have to get ProPinball games by Empire, they rock.

Don't expect 'Pro Pinball'.

I've never played the PC version by On Deck Interactive but, I've heard people talk about this game who have and apparently this version doesn't live up to the PC. The goods as I see them...The playfield is great. The layout has plenty to hit yet not crowded. Sound effects are fine but not outstanding. You can play your KISS CDs while playing the game (way cool). Two playfields instead of one. The music is not bad enough to gripe about. Very inexspensive (always a plus). The bads...You get what you've paid for. The flippers have a lag, as if the jets are worn. The ball plays like a pachinco machine with flippers, or the shop owner set the machine level at a 75 degree angle. Hard to catch the ball. The painting on the first playfield makes it hard to visually track the ball. I miss the Turbo-Grafx pinball game Devils Crush.... The next time KISS authorizes a static pinball simulator, they should go to Empire Interactive. Thanks.

Oh man... so bad, it's almost funny..

Gene Simmons really has to learn not to put a KISS logo on *everything* he possibly can.. I love Video Pinball games, but KISS Pinball is just annoying. While I can (barely) live with a scrolling table area, the tables themselves are so busy it's almost blinding trying to play the game and keep track of the ball! For [$...] it's not a *huge* loss of money, but don't bother with this game unless you're a *huge* fan of the rock group whose name is emblazoned on the cover of this title, (and you're into collecting memorabilia)...

undispudibly the greatest game ever made!!

Really I couldn't tell you readers why people hate this game so much. It's really not a bad game. Sure, it's not "Kingdom Hearts" or "Spyro The Dragon" but what do you expect for this price?

Sure the game play is a bit iffy, but the game is all around a fun game. The action is constantly moving and you don't have a minute to rest as you work to keep your ball going. And pinball games and KISS (or the way they used to be until 3 years ago anyway!) are great fun in of themselves, so put those two things together and you've got a entertaining product that will sell to die-hard fans of KISS and/or pinball

I do recommend the option that allows you to pause partway through the game and put in your own CD as the game music can get repetitious and kind of annoying. But other than that, this game is worth its price in playing time

There were a few things I didn't like about this game, such as the flat graphics and limited and unimaginative dialogue voiced in the game, so I must subtract a a star for that, but otherwise a pretty good game for its price.

So, in closing, I recommend this product for a few hours of good somewhat clean (except the use of the word "crap" in the dialogue which was probably what got it rated "T" because I couldn't find any other things in this game that would cause that rating)) fun for the whole family. Buy it, you won't be disappointed...at least I don't think you will.

Maybe it's worth [less money].

This game isn't very good. You get two boards of Kiss themed pinball. The worst part of this game is the ball control. The balls drop much too fast, making it hard to get any control. You basicly spend the whole game just flipping the flippers in hopes you'll hit the ball before it quickly drops to the bottom screen and past your flippers. The sound isn't very good either. Not much in the way of Kiss songs or sound effects. The manual even tells you to put your favorite Kiss CD in the playstation after the games loads. Don't confuse this game with an old favorite of mine for the Sega Genesis, Crue Ball, based on Motley Crue. That pinball game was great. I guess you get what you pay for and this game may be worth [the money]for a few rounds of pinball.

Worst Pinball game ever

I bought this game thinking it would be like the old KISS pinball machines of the 70s or like the Motley Crue pinball game on the old Sega Genesis, but this game sucks and is nothing like any other pinball game. The screen changes everytime the ball moves past the half-way point of the table and there are only two tables you can play. To make things worst for people like me that bought it more for the KISS angle is that that there is no KISS music anywhere to be heard. Not a huge loss of money, but the time I lost playing this sorry excuse of a game is time I will never get back - now that is sad!
Hope Gene enjoys my $10 bucks...maybe he can use it to cut off that silly wig looking thing on his head!
