I've had my BK 2000 for 5 years now. It is great after family dinners for entertaining the crew. It does play fast by once you get the hang of it, it is a blast. My wife teaches kindergarten and plays after a frustrating day with the kids to vent.
Mine too. I was 15 back then. Unfortunately, I had a chance to play it while the Circus came to town back then. Only for a few days. But it was well worth it. The best pinball table of all times, in my opinion.
Actually Black Knight 2000 is pretty easy to play. You cam play that game only on the upper playfield and when the ball is coming down just hold the flipper. Now you can make a shot to the upper playfield again. I did a 34 million highscore with that strategy :D
No mention of the King's Ransom? The first Wizard Mode in Pinball history? For shame! Anyway, this has GOT to be my favorite table of all time, mainly because of the incredible music. It's fast-paced, and never feels like the game's slowing down, for a second. It's brilliant.
I miss playing Black Knight 2000 at my local arcade back in the day. It's a shame it's so hard for me to find. I find first game all the time, but never 2000. The music just makes the game and having Steve as the host is awesome.
been playing loads of this of recent, tip on the upper playfield is to nudge the table forward as the ball hits the rubbers and hop it along back to the top flipper, if you can get the hopping down you do far better in the game
Good memories on this table. It s my second favorite of all time. I also was pretty good at it. It s pretty intense indeed and you shouldn t feel ashamed if you suck at it. Just practice some more and try to hold the ball on your flippers a little more often to take out some of the speed on the lower level. Just raise the flippers when you don t feel safe. If the ball goes out of control you will loose it real quick so try and keep the speed down a bit. Once you get the hang of it this game is really badass. Also try to get that Ransom somebody else mentioned, this almost insures a high score and this progress will be saved even after the game is over. You can see it on the video too, it saved 4 letters already
0:27 "...I actually moved Donkey Kong 3 from the basement and I replaced it with Qix." Good move! Qix was solid. DK3 sucked sour frog balls, and it was a Donkey Kong game in name only. :-)
Is there a mode to get DK 1,2, and 3 in one cabinet? Tell Dan to finishing off his basement and hang up some drywall. DK3 is going to come back full of fiber glass. :)
I just got PremiumLEDs for my BK2K (pinball-led.co uk ). Yes you need to chose the matching colours for the inserts. These were the brightest I could get, moreso than previous LED purchases. I don't regret it, the game looks stunning. For the record the music may be 80's cheese but IMO it's still an amazing and bonkers soundtrack.
I have played the actual BK2 pin a few times and it is better than the first black knight in my opinion - I think it is different enough from the old one but I understand your concern - hopefully you will be pleasantly surprised
Scott Merrell Well, I kind of dislike the annoying sounds in BK. If there's none of that to be had in 2000, I might like it. Real pins. Man, I haven't even seen one of those in my country for maybe 10 years. The only real pin I can remember playing is The Addams Family almost 20 years ago. At some point I am going to have to get a real machine though. Hopefully I can stop at just one, or two. Maybe three...
Scott Merrell I think I'm going to drag a friend along and hunt down a live pin this weekend. I haven't exactly looked for one before, so who knows.. Might get lucky and find one.
you shouldn't have sold it (or whatever happened to it) :( my first game was a comet and i sold it, but i dont miss it though. still searching for a bk2000
I never was a fan of black knight 2000 I reminded me of speedzone to much also it didn't have the great smack talk that the original Black Knight had! Plus black knight is one of the top 5 pin ball that if i had the cash I would own.. 1 black knight 2 xenon 3 silver ball 4 F14 tomcat 5 pin bot

My boss is a pinball nerd and we actually have one of those in the warehouse at my workplace. It's pretty cool.
Lucky you. Where can I apply for the job?:)
YOU GOT THE POWER!
YOU GOT THE MIGHT!
GET READY FOR BATTLE!
BEAT THE BLACK KNIGHT!
The best pinball music score ever! EVER!
GIVE ME YOUR MONEY
The music is INCREDIBLE.
I definitely agree with you black knight 2000 is probably the only pinball machine that contains one of the best soundtracks ever made by Williams

Can I come over to your place and play it? I won´t intrude anyone, I promise! :)
Steve Ritchie is one of the best designers he created my favorite machine of all time which is No Fear
My first game ever. Brought it home at 16. Changed my life. Miss it so much.
Mine too. I was 15 back then. Unfortunately, I had a chance to play it while the Circus came to town back then. Only for a few days. But it was well worth it. The best pinball table of all times, in my opinion.
I lost track on the count of how many times I lost track of the ball in motion. Darn, that one does move quickly.
Not that hard to overcome, but you have to play it a lot.

I agree. I made some records in my town too playing this awesome pinball table!
1:50 Is that a cup holeder on the leg of Revenge from Mars? That's neat.
Love that heavy metal theme
The music score is awesome! One of the best.

That left outlane / drain is brutal!
Nice that you went to another arcade to do some reviews,i liked seeing that other guy's arcade and his game choices
I miss playing Black Knight 2000 at my local arcade back in the day. It's a shame it's so hard for me to find. I find first game all the time, but never 2000. The music just makes the game and having Steve as the host is awesome.
Ok so this is the pinball machine in the Movie Little Monsters and the 1 that you could win in the sweepstakes.
It plays the way I remember it. I don't think I ever gave it any more than $2.
Another great review, your review of your Black Knight brought me to this one. Cup holders? Gett-er-mofffff! :)
+YootubeUK thanks! The cup holders need to go!

I know how to play this table very well, but unfortunately nowhere to find one, at the place where I live.
This machine is so badass btw. the sound and light effects, its like even better than whirlwind's
OMG WINDJAMMERS! I Love that game so much
That makes us two, at least.
Good memories on this table. It s my second favorite of all time. I also was pretty good at it. It s pretty intense indeed and you shouldn t feel ashamed if you suck at it.

My second was/is F14 Tomcat from Williams too. Had so many great times playing them. I miss those times...
totally agree i think the first one is better but its a ok table
totally agree on that. I hope it will be released some day.
Love me some Black Knight 2000!
the music is indeed badass, I want one.
The music score is one of its best!
Loved this game. Sucked at it royally, but the music was amazing.
many a quarter has been lost to this game :)
Tell me about it...:)
This Music I use for ringtone on My Cell!
0:27 "...I actually moved Donkey Kong 3 from the basement and I replaced it with Qix." Good move! Qix was solid. DK3 sucked sour frog balls, and it was a Donkey Kong game in name only. :-)
Steve Richie did this game and lend his voice. also he did the original Black Night
Nice John... I have this Pin, its awesome. Thanks.
I wonder if we can do a remix with the soundtrack…hmm
There are some multi-boards that will allow you to have all three games in one cab. And, there is some "nintendo switchers" in the works.
I could play that all day on a quarter .
I used to be that good myself. But I was 15 back then. Since that time, never played it again. Never had a chance again, unfortunately.
It is a brutal game, especially on the lower play field. As bad as Flash Gordon. But a kick ass game. Always wanted one.
I loved the original game, but not a lot of arcades had it.
Ed Boon, from MK also worked on this machine
uno de los mejores pinballs q he jugado ; )
I don't know what I am gonna do just yet! I AM OUT OF ROOM!!!
Is there a mode to get DK 1,2, and 3 in one cabinet? Tell Dan to finishing off his basement and hang up some drywall. DK3 is going to come back full of fiber glass. :)

Pinball Arcade should've port this sequel in addition to the original.
I was just at a arcade and i saw this.
And? Did you play it? If not, you made a big mistake!
This game is awesome!!!
Like its predecessor the left outlane is a bitch... at least it's predecessor had a magna save on the left too.
Love this game!!!!!!
Many of us do!
HEY GUYS, we are in the car...
Awesome! :D
I'm kind of anti-LED. Not the best guy to ask! :) I would check out cointaker they have LED kits for the different games.
can't wait until this pin comes to pinball arcade this season 3
This is the one table I really don't care for so far in Season 3; is it really that much different from the old Black Knight?
I have played the actual BK2 pin a few times and it is better than the first black knight in my opinion - I think it is different enough from the old one but I understand your concern - hopefully you will be pleasantly surprised

Well, I kind of dislike the annoying sounds in BK. If there's none of that to be had in 2000, I might like it.
Real pins. Man, I haven't even seen one of those in my country for maybe 10 years. The only real pin I can remember playing is The Addams Family almost 20 years ago. At some point I am going to have to get a real machine though. Hopefully I can stop at just one, or two. Maybe three...
yea I hear you I do not see many real tables either that is why I really like pinball arcade - it may not be the real table but it is good enough - :)

I think I'm going to drag a friend along and hunt down a live pin this weekend. I haven't exactly looked for one before, so who knows.. Might get lucky and find one.
Yay! In the basement!
you shouldn't have sold it (or whatever happened to it) :(
my first game was a comet and i sold it, but i dont miss it though. still searching for a bk2000
I never was a fan of black knight 2000 I reminded me of speedzone to much also it didn't have the great smack talk that the original Black Knight had! Plus black knight is one of the top 5 pin ball that if i had the cash I would own..
1 black knight
2 xenon
3 silver ball
4 F14 tomcat
5 pin bot
Good list. Black Knight was fun. I had one for a short while.
when donkey kong 3 comes back will you move qix over to qbert? or will dk3 go upstairs?
ALL OF MY WANT
The Black Knight 2000 was/is the best pinball table I´ve ever played! And yes, you suck at it...:)
Yes, it's a "pin gulp". Totally lame. ;)
Too much talking dude
Worst sounds of any pin. The only machine I have hated based on the machines music
This Music I use for ringtone on My Cell!
