Quoted from iceman44:How will it compare with AC/DC, MET and IMDN? Big hurdles to overcome.
Are you for real? Maiden sure, great game... Aside from potentially code which aint going to happen tell me 1 thing that ACDC or MET (no not the theme) would have over GNR?
Opps. sorry didnt realize this post was before the release... but yeah feel free to compare 
Quoted from pascal-pinball:A better rulesheet
lol wtf.. better ruleset on ACDC and MET? Maiden is great sure, but there aint no way that GNR will have worse rules and the formers. You wont have the boring lets shoot the bash toy over and over to start MB. GNR was given the effort that players deserve..... If only GAZ gave a shit
Quoted from Guinnesstime:I’ve viewed every minute of every stream.
My issues:
Scoop location
Non-stop multiball. NON. STOP.
Nothing to bash/hit/knock down etc at all
Slash spinner is pointless except to annoy?
It might be the worst skill shot in pinball
I still want an LE.
So far for me:
Short ramps
Jets that dont fire as good as Sterns
Crapping low scoring...something I just can never like
Quoted from Guinnesstime:I don't like the low scoring either.
Here's the "most advanced pinball machine on them market" and it scores like Amigo.
yeah I feel like after pounding a JJP and getting 4-6 mill.. what have I done? I prefer scoring where 100 mill is a great game and 1 bill is exceptional. Not crazy like AFM, and not low like JY. JJP tho.... just too low imo
+: Without a doubt the best lights/light show of any pinball ever made
+: Left ramp into the guitar head is great
+: innovations - cymbols, guitar head, drum sticks, spinner, LCD in playfield shoing info that backbox lcd cant cos band is playing
+: Slash in playing card when putting initials in
+: Mystery animation
+: Bass ramp
-: At this point I feel that maiden is a better playfield in terms of shots. GNR2 is clearly better in terms of innovation tho and the saucer dont go STDM!! 
-: Feed from the jets is a little ACDCish ... bit anxious of STDM
-: WWE skill shot
-: Weakish flippers...
Quoted from noob-a-tron:You just hate Metallica so much you won't even look at mine when you come over.
Its not that I hate MET or ACDC, they both have some good stuff on it, but it proper shits me that they could have been done so much better... I will never tell anyone that they should not like a game, but players deserve better, mainly in terms of innovation/tech, which is what GNR finally has!
Quoted from Lamberger:Sorry but John Borg, Lyman F. Sheats Jr and Richie are legends in this industry. Gnr has a really cool pop bumper symbol mech. Game looks great and very well designed... but wont get my money because of a cool symbol and leds.
Band on the LCD, unique playfield, great art, likely the best sound/sound system, wifi, blue tooth, best light show of any game, mechs that dont throw the ball SDTM, innovative ramps. Now lets have a look at the games that Borg has made:
Star Wars (Data East, 1992)
Jurassic Park (Data East, 1993)
Last Action Hero (Data East, 1993)
Tales from the Crypt (Data East, 1993)
Guns N' Roses (Data East, 1994)
Mary Shelley's Frankenstein (Sega, 1995)
Twister (Sega, 1996)
Mini-Viper (Sega, 1996)
The Lost World: Jurassic Park (Sega, 1997)
Harley Davidson (Sega/Stern, 1999)
Sharkey's Shootout (Stern, 2000)
Austin Powers (Stern, 2001)
Indiana Jones (Stern, 2008)
NBA (Stern, 2009)
Iron Man (Stern, 2010)
Avatar (Stern, 2010)
TRON: Legacy (Stern, 2011)
X-Men (Stern) (Stern, 2012)
Metallica (Stern, 2013)
The Walking Dead (Stern, 2014)
KISS (Stern, 2015)
Aerosmith (Stern, 2017)
Guardians of the Galaxy (Stern, 2017)
The Munsters (Stern, 2019)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (Stern, 2020)
The only decent games from the lot had Lyman save them. Ritchies golden games were from the 90s. TMNT, TWD are prob the best games but the others.... buyers/collectors/players deserved more... way more..
GNR2 might not be your cup of tea and tbh it might not be mine either, but you have to give JJP credit for having the balls to innovate and make pinball better for the community. I am not a complete Stern hater, JP is prob the purest playfield ever made and that along with maiden are 2 top 10 games ever made. But the vast majority of the above list is a piss weak effort in game design. Kaminkow said himself that pinball design was easy... Look what happened when that game was re-designed by KME....
