Quoted from jayhawkai:

I think you guys are crazy. ST feels like a grind right now and needs a code update. If you don't like bashing Monger all the time on IM, set it so he only rises from the center shot. That's how they set it up in tourney play and it's much better.

This is a great idea. I don't have my IM yet but it sounds like a great idea. I imagine the center shot is somewhat like the bell shot in AcDc which takes some aim to make.

ST reminds me somewhat of SM with the 3rd flipper and deep rules. The rules do need to be overhauled. I mean there is a lot of meat on the rules, but needs to be put together better. Hopefully they are working on this. Just the fact that so much is fleshed out on ST rules so far is promising to me, if they could make some side quests like SM has as well as (IMO) let the missions continue 1-2-3 deep rather than having to constantly hit the mode start to continue along, maybe have the mode start shot only if you want to change the mode. This one rule change IMO would do wonders for the ST game.

I will have both ST and IM and maybe Met (not sure) but you can't go wrong with either.

Quoted from Eskaybee:

While IM and IMVE are the same game, it's the small things that make IMVE more enticing. One of which is a clear coated pf.

I wonder how many IM VE they made, it sure seems like a run away hit from the chatter here on Pinside.

Quoted from Gov:

Pretty sure he is talking about the Pro which doesn't have color changing LEDs. As for the GI being as bright, you are wrong.

Pro does have some color changing LEDs they are the mode arrows iirc

Quoted from DrZhivago:

Well thanks for all the comments and banter. I decided to buy MET pro but got overruled(not family friendly). So I am getting ST pro. Hoping that new rule set will come out in the next 3-6 months!

From what I can tell, if you're looking for a game that's good for the family, probably ST overall since it's not as brutal. And most (almost all) casual players like kids or guests don't understand rules or stacking or whatnot just want to keep the ball in play and make ramps and loops and IMO the ST is probably better for that and IM probably better for the more seasoned players.

Met is not family friendly with curse words and also AcDc not family friendly but both are great games.

Currently, I'd give the nod to SM over ST but would hope the newer code on ST would close the gap.
