Free bump and my input.
I bought a SM without ever playing one and love it. Its my second pin, (wh2o was first) and i think its the perfect upgrade.
Its easy to clean and work on.
Its current, so quite easy to get parts for.
It carries tons of speed and flow, but to beat the game you need to be a sniper. On top of that the rules are deep enough to create a couple strategies throughout the game, but no so deep my gf couldnt figure them out (a good thing!!)
The music is actually pretty decent. I thought it would have been cheesey but it rocks.
My opinion on acdc pro was rubbish. I hated the game. Then i played a premium months later and im blown away.
The lightshow, swinging bell, and drop targets really give the game a great feel. Even the mini pf is a nice bonus. This will definitely be my next pin unless something new comes out and totally catches my eye. Another 5-6G is a ways down the road.
No exp. with the other two.
