Welcome to the forums. I also lurked for ages (years) before registering.

The first Kingpin was well-loved by a lot of people but I've not heard of any plans for a sequel.

That said, I think the GOG beta (see another thread in this forum) might have Kingpin 1 for download.

I would seriously love it for their to be a Kingpin 2, there was a talk of one a while ago - but by some other folk. It never happened though sadly .

I loved the multiplayer in this game, Realmode Bagman seriously rocked. Much better than any CTF game I've played to date.

Thanks for the welcome
Shame seems like a perfect game for a follow up, spent a fair few hours playing multiplayer, oh the good old times.

A sequel to the game went in production in Interplay in 2005. Work got as far as creating a playable demo version of a level, but after a string of disastrous decisions of the company's CEO, the project was canceled and soon afterwards, Interplay itself practically collapsed.

Shame.

I remember the graphics being great for the time. I was blown away by the flamethrower.

The sequel would probably be here now if Interplay hadnt got itself knee-deep in cack.

Yeah the graphics were great, remember purchasing a voodoo card around the same time, the model escapes me but it was one of the top ones.

Was a great game after a hard stressful day at work, nothing like taking a lead pipe to a thugs head

I played the game from 2000 to 2005, defiantly won't be a KP2, seen it all before many many times about this.

I have never played kingpin, when I was in college someone gave me a copy of it but the colours were all messed up(because it was a copy) don't even know what it was about
