i have the original version with the musical score as cd and image. when you ever played this pinball you never want to play another pinball game (except other pinball tables from pro pinball). even the newest one feel like crap and you want to go back to timeshock. its a shame they didnt continue to make tables :(
@adsci That basically happened because the developers, ade and champie, were mad pinball fans who I believe collected physical tables at the time. They basically took the attitude of taking as long as it took to produce the best possible simulation. Unfortunately modern publishers don't tolerate that so much.. I believe that the GOG.com version has the music as digital files which play more reliably.
The Pro Pinball series is the best simulation of electronic pinball you can play, ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD! Even now, in 2011, for simulations that were made back in the 1990s, they have yet to be beaten. I have the whole series, that I bought back in the 90s. 'The Web' Timeshock, Big Race USA and Fantastic Journey. All are in perfect working order with full music scores too. All tables are in FULL 3D and so colourful. I have loaded all of my Pro Pinball titles onto my Toshiba netbook.
I have the whole series of Pro Pinball, including this one. They work like a dream with FULL MUSIC. The Pro Pinball series are the BEST PINBALL SIMULATIONS THAT YOU CAN PLAY, ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD! Even for pinball simulations that were made back in the 90s they have yet to be bettered or beaten by anything now. I have loaded all of my Pro Pinball series onto my Toshiba Netbook. They work like a dream and it is like owning my very own full scale minature pinball machines on my netbook.
Tip: if you want to get dawn Of Time you must collect all tachyaminum (i don t remember that name) for predictstone age ancidents rome the present day and the future all crystals to go there. Second ip: if you want to oppen mystery you must get triple jackpot or jackpots for time machine frenzy and the second for time warp frenzy ( but you only need one to go the mystery) oh and i think those ball goinig out for mystery game or the dawn of time good music is these games (not big race usa).
I have it. ITS AMAZING. found it in my fathers old cd box. WIth music. It runs on Windows Vista and on 7. but you have to skip some german warnings......
I need to break this game out again. Does it run on XP? I don't think I've even tried to install it on my last 3 machines. Not sure why, the PP games are amazingly realistic.
This game is one of the best, if not the best pinball simulator for PC ever. Never got my hands on The Web, but i have BRUSA and FJ too and Timeshock just beats them. No other developer have made a pinball anything like this series. Sierra's 3D Ultra Pinball is fun, but not a simulation.
I've bought this game in a version attached to a games magazine, but, like in this video, the game is without music (that should be contained into the original CD).
There's a mode to get the music with the game? Reply please! Thanks!
Aaaw, what a ripoff. They did this to me with Forsaken. I mean how you can fully enjoy eithher of those games without original soundtrack? Those magazine guys should know better.
The thing I remember about Forsaken, was that I bought it on sale, for 20 bucks, and it included the Orb 360 game controller. That was back in 97 or 98. I sold the game controller on ebay for over 300 dollars back around 2002 or so.
I don't know how anyone would not have music in this one. There are four tables made by this maker, I have three of them. I have TimeShock!, Big Race USA and Fantastic Journey. I bought them online, so i have an account where I can always download them. If you message me, I'll help you out and let you go on my account and download them. Just don't mess anything up!
message me and i will give u three of the four tables with music and everything. i have big race usa, fantastic journey and timeshock! im messing The Web, but whatever, if you want it message me bro and ill help you out!
@cdemusix play your stereo :) when i'm tired of music in some games i cut it and i use ma music from another source... i know it's an homemade remedy ..but it works
@cdemusix Don't worry, the music is some stupid guitar rock which really doesn't fit this game. It's either full volume or silent, I don't know why. The only drawback to this marvellous classic is actually the soundtrack.
I have got all the Pro Pinball simulations: The Web, Timeshock, Fantastic Journey, and Big Race USA. All of them are fantastic pinball simulations, the best pc pinball simulations that are out there. All of my simulations have the full music that acommpanies them. I can even get The Web to work, and I have Windows Vista.
I've bought 3 or 4 copies of Timeshock over the years and only on the first 2 (dating from the 90s) did the musical accompanyment work. Which is a shame, as of all the 4 Pro Pinball games Timeshock has by far the most spectacular (& varied) soundtrack. The composer/performer was the guitarist from 'Stiff Little Fingers', a good UK band. He also wrote & performed the music for 'The Web', but that pales next to Timeshock. Fortunately I recently rediscovered a 'backup' CD, which works perfectly.
Words cannot describe how much I love the Pro Pinball Timeshock! music. It is awesome! Unfortunately I lost my CD about 8 years ago. Any idea where I can buy the game and/or music score nowadays?
greatest pc pinball of all times-soundtrack fucking rocks,gameplay rocks,this is a hell of a pinball simulation! wish someone would create an real flipper based on timeshock
WoW. U gotta get more precised and learn how to shot the ramps (Metal). Because this is how u get the jackpot, and the fragment which is needed to complete one timearea. You can get the fragment with 3 shots when making a ramp combo, 1* 2* 3*. You can also take single shots. But will take much longer. Each Jackpot lits one continent.
When all continents are lit, shot the crystal to lock fragment, after multiball, shoot crystal again to get fragment. You locked one time age. Get the fragments for all time ages, and u get the first big goal in "TimeShock Frenzy". All fragments will be put together and you get a five ball multiball - 120sec. All ramps orbits are lit. And you basiclly have to lock all the fragments in order to complete TimeShock Frenzy. ------
When you want to time drive, get the time machine ready (multiple ramp shoots), and than start multiball. For some time ages you gonna need crystals, which you get by completing explorations. The first big Goal "Dawn of time"- trigers TimeShock Frenzy you going to need 3 crystals (there are two in each time area) plus all 4 fragments. For the "Unknow" trigers "Wizard Frenzy" (highest goal) you need 8 Crystal + timeShock Frenzy Completed. Wizard Frenzy is going to be a 6 ball multiball.
Do this game has any music in the background? I have a version like this, but some people sad that, the game has a music. Tell me the truth please :).
Yeah man i have the original CD version, and it has music. And nice one, i have to say. The best tracks are the just before the time machine frenzy. And other good track is when you go explore in the future.
i have this problem before but i have your solution:
go to google and put pro-.pinball timeshock megaupload and go here:

Truely in the class of mid nineties bally/williams best offerings.
