January 13, 2005
(Chicago) - Stern Pinball's newest machine, THE SOPRANOS ® offers
would be
wise guys (and everyone else) a challenging and dynamic interactive game
experience into the world
of the critically acclaimed and award winning
HBO ® hit television
series THE SOPRANOS ®.
 For all those who have been spellbound by mobster themed books,
movies
and TV shows throughout
the years, THE SOPRANOS ®
Pinball Machine is a must for all
pinball machine collectors, home players, offices, bars/clubs,
restaurants, amusement parks, bowling alleys and arcade gamerooms,
or for the real wise guy who want to
get in on the excitement of owning,
playing and sharing this utterly
unique, extremely popular and very
collectable one-of-a-kind
machine by godfather of all modern pinballs,
Stern !
Featuring Mr. Tony Soprano, his immediate family and his business "family",
THE SOPRANOS ® Pinball Machine challenges players
to rise through the family ranks to the "Boss" of the family.
THE SOPRANOS ® Pinball Machine also has elements from the show,
including the hot dancing girls
of the " Bada Bing ! "; Tony Soprano's boat, " The Stugots ", and a
very cool
multi-ball feature -
a safe that cracks open after being whacked by the
ball - and also comes with that wacky "
talking fish " from Season Two that always
jokes around with the players!
THE SOPRANOS ® Pinball Machine
is the first Stern pinball machine
to have three separate speech levels : "Adult" (which during
gameplay, many of the "four-letter" and swear words used on the
series are heard!) "Standard" (uses strong language, no swearing)
and "Family" (no crude or objectionable language)
THE SOPRANOS ® Pinball Machine features the
actual voices of many of the characters on the show,
including James Gandolfini (Tony Soprano), Edie Falco (Carmela
Soprano) and Steven Van Zandt (Silvio),
and the machine plays
THE SOPRANOS ® classic theme song, "Woke
Up This Morning" during game play. Pinball Hall of
Fame artist Kevin O'Connor
created THE SOPRANOS ®
playfield artwork, while the cabinet and back glass artwork are
taken directly from the original HBO
show promotional
artwork.
Gary Stern says, "THE SOPRANOS ®
is a great title for a pinball; with the
show elements this game is really fun for all level players. The
artwork can only be described as really stunning". THE SOPRANOS ®
Pinball Machine is definitely one of the most exciting pinball machines to come
along in years!
In 2004, THE SOPRANOS ® received a total of four
Emmys ® awards, including
Best Drama Series;
Best Supporting Actor in
a Drama Series (Michael Imperioli); Best Supporting Actress in a Drama Series
