rwxI really think there needs to be a Headhunter pinball game. This is why:
This would be a good sample for the beginning of the game when you first start. Starting off the game with a loud sample is more or less traditional with the recent pinball games, and at least with a Front 242-based pinball game you'd get a good aesthetic.
Many pinball games these days have paths that you have to shoot down multiple times to advance. For example, Medieval Madness has paths you have to shoot to build your ratings at 'peasant,' 'dragon,' 'joust,' or 'royal' madnesses, as well as other targets that you have to shoot multiple times. so, you have to get means (ie: money), accompaniment (ie: a horde of some sort), and make a name for yourself. In pinball metaphor, you just shoot the same path multiple times. Games like the The Sopranos have various ways to accumulate money by hitting targets; and the Lord of the Rings pinball has you go down a route to accumulate souls on the paths of the dead. Getting a name for yourself can be similar, the Sopranos pinball for example has you get various stages of mafia reknown (associate, earner, made man, capo) as you play.
Again, the cells can be targets where you accumulate 'marks of the genius.'
So, basically, as you go through you increase your bonus multiplier.
One of the hallmarks of most modern pinball games is that they're modal, ie: that they have various rules changes as they go one. Basically, the game could play these two lines of lyrics, and then change various rules of the game, giving bonuses, causing sequences to trigger, and other things like that.
This would be a good line to play every time you get some ludicrously huge bonus, as current pinball games seem to favor.
And this would be the sequence that triggers multiball. So, once you lock the ball in the initial target, things would appear like 'BAIT THE LINE -- EITHER RAMP' and then 'SPREAD THE NET -- HIT THE FLASHING TARGETS,' and then finally 'CATCH THE MAN -- CENTER RAMP.' After you do this, multiball begins with the chorus blazing.
Freeze! Shoot To Kill Or Die

Today he has no means, he's alone and anonymous

But written in his cells he has got the marks og the genius

I'm looking for this man to sell him to other men
To sell him to other men at ten times the price at least
So, basically, as you go through you increase your bonus multiplier.
I'm looking for this man who knows the rules of the game
Who's able to forget them to realize my aim

I'm looking for this man to make us rich and famous

One - You lock the target
Two - You bait the line
Three- You slowly spread the net
And four - You catch the man
And this would be the sequence that triggers multiball. So, once you lock the ball in the initial target, things would appear like 'BAIT THE LINE -- EITHER RAMP' and then 'SPREAD THE NET -- HIT THE FLASHING TARGETS,' and then finally 'CATCH THE MAN -- CENTER RAMP.'
