Quoted from adamsebas:

Finally played gnr....feels boaty and has no good shots. Something feels off about it. Its like a cross between a pokie machine and guitar hero!

That's funny the game I played , played fast and had great shots . I get the Guitar Hero bit but that was a hugely popular game , which I enjoyed , so I'm cool with that .
Don't forget the other modes like " do you want to play a game " and "carnage " . I haven't seen The Wizard mode yet because I don't want to spoil it .
Sorry for going off topic in this food thread

Quoted from romulusx:

Album sales aside the point he made about concert ticket sales is a provable fact!

GNR is playing at our biggest stadium later this year at the MCG , it holds 100,000 , only the biggest bands play there Rolling Stones , Michael Jackson , U2 , Madonna .
The next biggest holds 50,000 and bands like ACDC , Robbie Williams play there .
Most bands play at the tennis centre which holds 15,000 , Alice Cooper , Elton John , Fleetwood Mac , the eagle's .
And then there's Festival Hall which holds 1,700 people and Rob Zombie and The Beatles have played there .
I don't know anything about record sales , I'm just pointing out who has played where .
Regardless , I'm happy JJP went with GNR , because of Slash no other band pinball would have turned out as good .

Quoted from cooked71:

LOL to the tribalism on both sides.

Yep , it's like , everybody likes football but everyone has their own team .
Hate to be boring but I like games from both companies but this time jjp has a real winner .

Quoted from IdahoRealtor:

but I have yet to hear a convincing argument as to what makes them "higher quality". Other than bigger tv, and costs more, I can't think of any metric where they are #1.

You can argue about , better Shots , Fun games , Snappy flippers .
But JJP do put more effort into their cabinets , coding and hardware .
Jjp have full length tubular service rails , not little pegs to hold the play field up , they have quality wood in the base of the cabinets , not chipboard , Batman SLE didn't even have corner brackets , they have a headphone jack input , they don't try to save a few bucks on wiring and put the on off switch in the back box . AIQ LE has about 16 RGB' S , GNR has 350 RGB's .
When you open the back box on a new Stern you lay the LCD on the Playfield , with GNR it has a quality metal arm which swings out . They all have a second LCD screen .
Jjp have the best animations by far thanks to JP DeWin . Joe Katz spent 80 hours coding the lights for one song on GNR . Not to mention internet connectivity and Bluetooth and free ScoreBit for life .
I'm sure there's other stuff I'm missing .
I'm not saying Stern doesn't make fun games but jjp puts more into their games and you pay for it .

Quoted from snaroff:

I owned DILE for 3 years and just let it go. My son and I just decided we didn't really enjoy playing the game any more.

Di , you can play the game with your mobile phone , I owned a WOZ and it didn't do it for me , I ended up getting a hobbit and I just love that game . I understand not everyone loves jjp games but there's no denying they put more into them compared to Stern .

Quoted from Eskaybee:

their games require less maintenance, and are less prone to breaking. That quality is unmatched from any other manufacturer IMO.

Hmm.. what about the issues with the subway on Avengers , the diverter on Turtles , the Demi Gorgon and ESP lock on Stranger Things , the T-Rex on JP , the house in Elvira . Stern has as many issues as any other manufacturer . IMO

Quoted from jawjaw:

I think you are selling Stern a bit short. The newest Stern I have JP pro is put together pretty well aside from clearcoat issues.

Don't forget about the warped playfields .

Have you got your grinder and files out to fix your Icarus . That sounds like fun

Quoted from beelzeboob:

One piece of sandpaper. Five minutes. Done.

Relax boob , I'm genuinely happy you got your issue sorted out .

Quoted from beelzeboob:

People sure get touchy around here when the shoe is on the other foot. At least now I know what I'm dealing with. You guys say a whole bunch of words. I said one and seemed to have touched a nerve. Keep being defensive when people make jokes...it's very telling in more ways than one.

You're the one who comes across as being touchy and has a nerve being hit .
You implied JJP games are not fun , I gave a come back , with a smiley face .
And now you're cut ?
I never said anything nasty about Stern or Led Zep .
I've been cheeky but polite .
If you take things personally and get upset well .. what can I say .

Quoted from Jaybird815:

That’s a cheap easy fix, the crappy washed out lcd screens JJP appears to have switched to, probably not so.

Total respect jaybird , you know how to give a response .
By the way the screen on the demo I played , looked fantastic and the colours and animations looked unreal .

#225 3 years ago
Quoted from beelzeboob:

If I'm touchy, it's because every single game I get is trashed on this site by people who supposedly love pinball.

I hear you mate . I own fishtails and The Hobbit , I know all about it .
I don't care what anyone else says , at the end of the day it's me playing the game in my house . From my point of view I was having friendly banter , not trying to pick a fight with you .
Cheers Rich

The only pin in my collection with a splitting cabinet is my Getaway so...

I know that feeling .
