I found a site that lists information/facts about video games. They listed 36 facts about Kingpin (one or two of which had me scratching my head).
Check out the 36 Kingpin facts
here.
I asked that AI generated Windows CoPilot "How has Kingpin influenced modern games?"
This was it's response:-
Kingpin: Life of Crime has left a lasting mark on the gaming industry, despite its initial controversy. Here are some ways it has influenced modern games:
- Gritty, Mature Themes – Kingpin pushed boundaries with its dark, crime-ridden world, inspiring later games like Grand Theft Auto and Mafia to embrace mature storytelling.
- RPG Elements in FPS Games – The game introduced RPG-like mechanics, such as hiring gang members and upgrading weapons, which influenced titles like Far Cry and Borderlands.
- Innovative AI and Pathfinding – Enemies in Kingpin used advanced AI, setting a precedent for smarter enemy behavior in modern shooters.
- Urban Crime Aesthetic – The game's dystopian cityscape and gangster themes helped shape the visual and narrative style of later crime-focused games.
Its legacy continues to be appreciated by fans and developers alike.
Here is a map we have been playing quite often lately on the Boiler Room DM server.
Ham'N'Cheez 2007 is an update of an an old map called Ham'N'Cheez I did with help from
Hypov8 back in 2007. The original Ham'N'Cheez DM map was created in September of 2001 by an unknown author. It is a small, urban style street map.
When I updated the map I made a lot of changes, but the main ones were making the map brighter, changing some textures and the amount and placement of weapons, added some ladders to improve the flow of the map, opened up access to rooftops and added more player spawns.
You can download Ham'N'Cheez 2007 from
here.
Just extract/unzip the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct locations.
Here is another Kingpin video from
KUBA18i. This one is from Thursday's game of ThugFloor mod.
The Sunday games this week will be an hour or so of the ThugFloor mod on Killa's server, and then the remainder of the night will be Bagman on the East Coast USA Snitch Slappa server.

Seeing as
Tunnleram made a return to Kingpin today I thought it was only fitting to post about one of his maps he made for Kingpin way back in 2000.
The map is called Assassins Mountain Stream and Tunnleram released two versions - beta2 and beta4.
Assassins Mountain Stream beta2 is a medium sized death match map set in mountainous area with lots of water. There are ample weapons and items and the map has a good layout. Be careful in the water though as there is a strong current.
You can download Assassins Mountain Stream beta2 from
here.
Assassins Mountain Stream beta4 is a much larger version of the map. Tunnleram added a large complex to the map with several areas.
You can download Assassins Mountain Stream beta4 from
here.
Just extract/unzip the files to your Kingpin folder and they will be placed in the correct locations.
At the time of writing Kingpin is on the front page of Gamefront as one of the trending games. I'm sure it won't last long but I thought it was cool to see :)
Tunnleram, the team leader of the Crash mod from when it was developed way back in 2001 turned up for a game of Crash today.
Welcome back Tunnleram :)
