Title: Classic Game Room: SOLAR FIRE Pinball Machine review
Post by: PinPal on October 26, 2012, 10:53:34 AM

Classic Game Room reviews SOLAR FIRE Pinball Machine from Williams released in 1981. Solar Fire is a sci-fi themed pinball machine from the 80's with classic Williams sound effects from games like Defender and Robotron 2084. Watch CGR gameplay of Solar Fire pinball and marvel at the back glass and playing field full of alien women, space ships (from Battlestar Galactica) and explosions! This awesome arcade pinball machine is one that shouldn't be missed with a split level playing field and the Magna-Save!

The reviewer really needs to tone himself down. Video is GREAT with the sound off. This game is AWESOME. If you have only one Williams title, it has to be Solar Fire, Black Knight or Pharaoh. I've never seen one for sale in Australia.

Game looks fun, but yes the guy needs to take it back a notch or 5.

Yeah he's a bit painful, review would've been great if he'd just kept his trap shut. I mean.. Its one thing to want to inject a bit of humor into stuff like this, and it CAN make it more fun to watch for sure but he just went on like a complete tool and overdid the humor to the point that it wasnt funny !!@
 
13 dislikes on this vid.. i guess 13 other people viewing on Youtube felt the same

Having said that though, the game looks and sounds to be AWESOME fun to play  *%* i really like the sounds and features on these Wms pins of this era
thanks for posting the link  ^^^
