BALLS OF STEEL v1.3 RELEASED
7:00 PM
That's right - our pinball title from a couple of years ago has a new update - v1.3! This update is of a technical nature, there are no new game features added, but for some people this will certainly help them. Here's a listing of what's new in v1.3 of Balls of Steel:
Now runs under Windows 2000
VESA support has been removed - DirectX only
Menu now displays full screen
Microsoft SideWinder game pad detection fixed to detect Pro (USB) version
