Pro Pinball: Big Race USA
Pro Pinball: Big Race USA is an action video game developed by Cunning Developments, published by Empire Interactive and distributed by Take-Two Interactive for Microsoft Windows and PlayStation. It is the third game in the Pro Pinball series, and is themed around travelling around the United States in a car, similar to the Williams physical table Red & Ted's Road Show. Background It is notable for having a lot more "simulation" features than its predecessor Pro Pinball: Timeshock!, such as ability to configure table angle, flipper strength and how "worn" the table should appear to be. It also features a skill level setting, perhaps in response to Pro Pinball: Timeshock!s difficulty. It also has improved graphical features including a subtle texture on the ball (so you can see how the ball is spinning) and motion blur. Reception The PlayStation version received "average" reviews according to the review aggregation website Metacritic. In Japan, where the same console version was ported and published by Syscom as part of the World Greatest Hits Series''' on 13 June 2002, Famitsu gave it a score of 22 out of 40. The PC version received the "Special Award" for "Quick-Fix Gaming" from Computer Gaming World'' in
