I loved these games when they were first released, and played them on Win95 and 98, but when XP came along, they were toast.
I was very happy to see that they had been re-released for XP.
Strangely, the first two games work just fine, but the newest in the series will not work on my computer. It installs, graphics are fine, but all keyboard entries are erratic and slow (I'm talking 10-20 seconds for response times!). The fix posted in the readme files, and the updates, didn't fix the problem for me, but may fix it for others.
It's a bummer, because the third game is my favorite however, I'll live with just the other two.
It's still worthy but frustrating to pay for something and not be able to play part of it!

These pinball games in this pak are just like the real thing. You can even change the settings of the tables to your exact preferences, even the condition of the tables from worn to new and inbetween. Would like to see them make some more new ones for PC's!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1Best Deals for Ultimate Pro Pinball 3-Pack
Will only work with outdated Windows systems. An old and obsolete format for newer computers. Duh. Don't even bother. Useless.Honest reviews on Ultimate Pro Pinball 3-Pack
I LOVE LOVE LOVE these games! Not only are they MAD FUN to play (not to mention TOTALLY realistic), but the graphics, sound effects, voices (including the stuff they SAY!), AND MUSIC are all AWESOME! :) Of the 3 games, my faves are Fantastic Journey (AMAZINGLY fun!) and Timeshock (ALSO a blast, but also totally NERVE-WRACKING!!!). I've only played Big Race USA once fun, but no comparison to the other 2 (in my humble opinion). Pinball lovers, BUY THESE GAMES!!!Find helpful customer reviews and review ratings for Ultimate Pro Pinball 3-Pack
I've played a lot of pinball the last 21 years and think this gets as close as it gets to the real top tables games. Seems the developers, Empire Interactive, spared no expense and the company and this set belong in the Pinball Hall of Fame a HUGE THANK YOU, Empire!!! Thanks to other fans, there are great strategy guides for Big Race and Timeshock . These play great on Windows Vista and 7 but you may need the patches (email me at jacobson_steel@yahoo.com if you can't find them online). The graphics are incredible even if you don't have a computer screen with a resolution of 1600x1200+ If you can't find a CD for sale, these are currently available for download atPlease post a note if you have access to a great Fantastic Journey guide or know of a great PC joystick for these.
