Quoted from Deez:Did you read the thread? People are saying the games play like shit. Lol.
Everyone has a different opinion on gameplay. I have 2 on 90's DE machines with raised or lowered inserts and they both play much smoother and dare I say faster. I've felt no need to put one on my SWEP1 as none of the inserts have issues.
Gatecrasher is exactly right, the only downside is it's $100+ to test and see if it's for you. I've been lucky to get both of mine in group buys with free shipping.
Quoted from AlphaGeek:WackyBrakke what would you recommend for an older game with badly cupped inserts with raised edges? Would a playfield protector not be recommended for this scenario? Thanks!
For what it's worth, this is the reason I buy the protectors. Had some raised inserts on 2 Data East games and some sunken ones on a Genie. It was worth my time and the money and I feel they play better.
