Quoted from taylor34:Don't buy a pin until you confirm the software is good (Aerosmith). It shouldn't even be considered.
I would normally agree with that, but in the last few years Stern has really done a great job with software updates.
Quoted from CaptainNeo:why the rush before you play it? Pro's limited now? Why does the decision have to be made before you played 50 games on each? No matter what people say here, the only way you can make a sound judgement is to play both 50 times.
Couple things. I have the money now and I figure the longer I wait the more chance of a shortage.
Quoted from Pinballlew:I've only played GB pro so who knows how good Aerosmith pro will be...but it does look good. I would wait till you can play both and see which one you like the best, but right now I would say GB as that game is great IMO...on 1.05 code is what I played.
I've played GB pro and liked it overall but the drainers were a killer.
Quoted from timtim:I don't think I have ever read something like this on pinside
To clarify what I meant.
IMHO - Did first version software suck. Yes
Did Stern release updates that shaped to the game to be what it is today. Yes
Did Stern release on a timely fashion. No
All I'm saying is that all the newer games started with not so great software and ended up being much much better.
Threw together a couple Pro/Cons. Please add.
GB Pro:
Playfield/Quailty issues are sorted out.
It's more proven – know what to expect.
GB Con:
Lots of hate with the draining and air ball issues.
Having to add protectors.
No Color DMD. Is it even possible with Spike System?
Aerosmith Pro:
Dirty Donny Artwork!
LCD Display – Animations are very cool.
Aerosmith Con:
Unproven.
First run – possible quality issues.
More like MET then GB.
Thanks
