Human Pachinko

Gojin · Jun 28, 2003

Anyone see the show MXC on TNN? It's a Japanese Gameshow done Mystery Science Theater Style, with American dubbing giving some really funny commentary. Well, on this show they had an event where a person was put into a ball and then thrown down a large hill shaped like a pachinko machine. If anyone saw this, was anyone else thinking of making this level in half-life 2? That would be so freakin' fun, lol.

Hahah yeah that show is pretty funny sometimes, havent seen the episode in question tho.

I think it would be awesome to make a pachinko machine on a giant wall. Have a very narrow ledge on the top, and put a bunch of scientists up there. You get a sniper rifle, zoom in, snipe the guy, and watch him fall. Then on the bottom, have a huge physics-based chain reaction that would eventually lead to the death of a Combine soldier.

And yeah, I've seen that show, it's hilarious sometimes.

I dont know if this is happening to anyone else, but my sig doesnt seem to be appearing. Anyone know why?
Edit: It seems when I quote someone, that is the only time it appears.

Yeah, after i beat singleplayer ima make alot of physics tests like that, so much new stuff you can doo. o man i cant wait.

OH! *lightbulb appears over head* I just got an idea! Someone should make a Half-Life 2: Race mod, and one of the maps is a sort of maze of pachinko rods, each player gets a scientist to shoot at the "Go!" sound, and whoever's scientist makes it down first wins. :E

haha. I can imagine so many corny mods, such as bowling. LOL, BOWLING WITH GUNS! Oh the hours of fun

Stigmata · Jun 28, 2003

How about "Half-Life 2: The Combine-Bowling League"? You use the Manipulator to fire off a Combine and knock down as many pins as you can! Winner gets to bowl the Combine down the alley into more Combine in place of the pins!!!

hahaha. Man, I can already picture how much fun maps with names like mp_rats will be. The interaction will make the map fun for so long.

Anyone please tell me!

What the hell is a pachinko machine???

Axyon · Jun 28, 2003

I assume it's like the barrel drop-course in the HL2 tech demo, where he shoots a support and the barrels trickle down the metal slats.

EVIL · Jun 28, 2003

lol.. that would make a great map!

JunkieXL · Jun 28, 2003

the possibilities. aaaaaaaaah.

I love that video, especially the music... wish I knew who did it.

A Pachinko machine is exactly what's on the demo (cause Gabe says it :S) If your still not sure, think of the Price is Right. I think it was called a Plinko machine there. Come on downnnnnn! But on the tv show MXC, it was at a slant and the people were in these plastic balls. It was so freakin' funny. I'll try to find a picture.

Edit: Ok, I couldn't find a picture of the human pachinko, but I did find pics of the show.

that will be owesome if someone makes a mod for hl2 with humans on a platform. then you can destroy it and watch them fall through it.

Murray_H · Jun 29, 2003

i thought you were on about takeshi's castle, its on challenge TV in the UK

Gojin · Jun 29, 2003

It's the same thing, but with funny dubbing over here. That's what the show really is, Takeshi's Castle.

SpuD · Jun 29, 2003

Ive only seen that show once, and there were these two hot chicks eating a sub sandwich then they kissed when they got to the middle! wow!

LoneDeranger · Jun 29, 2003

I've only seen the episode where the chick got hit in the head with a soccer ball. Funny.
