Looks like the Trashfall is still alive, and Breakthrough Gaming is to blame. But still, we can't say Trash Gaming without mentioning the "I want to be the pioneer of bad games", right?.
After skipping the unnecessary four, three and two player editions of Racing and Baseball along with the "Challenge Mode" releases of Zippy The Circle and ZJ the Ball, Breakthrough Gaming is back with a brand new trash game: Pinball, A.K.A. Breakthrough Gaming Presents: Pinball.
Beyond Bad, Beyond Trash
Beyond all boundaries of stupidity.
The gameplay of Pinball is as pathetic as the low-budget nature of Breakthrough Gaming itself. Before talking about it, remember this: Pressing Right on the D-Pad controls the left flipper while the X button is the right one. With that said and done, let's go with the review. Anyone who's familiarized with Pinball games, surely knows that you have to fire the ball with the Ball Shooter and keep an eye on the ball once its out of the Ball Shooter Lane. Not in Breakthrough Gaming's Pinball. Here you move the ball to the desired side you want to drop it, then you can only hope to hit a few bumpers and slingshots before hitting it again. You have three tries to reach the highest score possible, after that is Game Over.
The saddest, pathetic part of Pinball is the lack of all the elements that make pinball the game it is, all the sudden twists and crazy bonuses are non-existant, not even the "Hit the panels" to win either a bonus or an extra ball. I know it's a done on the cheap game, but this doesn't deserve that title or the name of Pinball. Is nothing more than an insult to the timeless favorite passtime of bars and arcades.
As usual, the game only acts as an excuse for easy trophies, and like in Catch the Bowling Balls, it will take you a minute or so to get all of the trophies. Its completely laughable to see how the "Trophy Unlocked" message appears over and over and over again until the Platinum is obtained.
Have joy in the bad times? Be happy and content in your tears?
What are you? Some kind of sick bastard who likes punishments?
The lesson of the game is about loving God, which is what he wanted on this live He gave us. But some of the lines of Breakthrough Gaming's lesson are questionable like "Have joy in the bad times" that makes the developer is giving us a lesson of masochism rather than an exercise of optimism. Playing this game is indeed "bad times", a sick joke, a cruel prank of the worst kind.
Graphically, is as laughable as the rest of their "Arcade" catalogue. One of the things that make pinball licensed or not so special is the flashing colors and lights. This game has none of them. Everything is on black and white making the game empty and lifeless. Even the NES Pinball game was more colorful and resembled the real thing better than this garbage. As for the sound, a repulsive title screen tune and the rest is silence, just crappy sound effects and that's pretty much all to talk about this game.
Wish we're done, but with Breakthrough Gaming's return we can't tell for sure.
*Sigh* The world of trash gaming still has more to offer I guess, and Breakthrough Gaming's Pinball is no exception. Unless you're urged for cheap trophies and crack some laughs then pick it, but ignoring this game will be for the best since paying 1 dollar will only encourage Breakthrough Gaming to develop more trash games.
Lea crying says more than a mouth full of expletives.
