    I have played WOZ, Dialed in, and Willy Wonka. The flippers, pops, slings and mechanicals feel well built, the overall feel of the game give you the impression of speed and quality. Tonight I played a Guns N Roses Limited Edition and although I like the theme, artwork, and everything about the game, I do not like the feel of the mechanicals. It is very "loose" and clapped out.. Other guns n roses at shows also feel the same way. Does anyone have any speculation if they changed to a different hardware vendor for guns n roses?

    Nope, played GNR first. the Dialed in, WOZ, WWCF, all feel solid. I know its all feel as there is nothing wrong with the mechanicals in terms of wear, but they sound and feel like terrible. I wish I could use words to describe but can't.

    So when you play a stern, spookey, american pinball, they all have their own unique feel to their mechanicals. And all JJP games felt the same, just as all new spike 2 sterns feel the same. GNR however is just different in a not so good way. Just curious if they are using different brand hardware parts as a result.

    Quoted from yancy:

    Your GNR experience is how all JJP games play to me. I know they use quality mechs, but the feel is awful. High-power coils have no snap. Slingshots flick instead of kick. Bumpers tap instead of pop. Flippers lazily meander the ball around ramps & orbits.
    I know there are settings, but I played a friend's GNR with flipper power cranked up and it still felt like crap. Shame, as I want to love that game.

    Actually you explained it all for me right there.......That is what I wanted to say the whole time but failed to put into words.

    But!!!!!! I am not experiencing this feel on the other games WOZ, DI, WW&CF.
