I had them in the same lineup for quite awhile too.

No, they are not too similar to have in the same collection. Two of the greatest pins ever made.

Quoted from taylor34:

That being said, I like AFM a lot more, I feel like it's more balanced scoring wise. On MM it's just pound the castle I feel like most of the time to get a good score.

There is no doubt that AFM has better balanced scoring.

But in a home environment, who cares? I always play MM and AFM for the wizard modes (Battle for the Kingdom and Rule the Universe) more than I do score. Of course to get to BFTK, it means you have to defeat all the castles anyway.

Quoted from taylor34:

I'm definitely in the minority in my feelings though, most people prefer MM.

Quoted from Aurich:

You're not that alone, I'm with you, I like AFM better too.

I agree, I don't think it is some kind of huge minority opinion to like AFM more than MM by any stretch at all.

I think AFM is the better playing pin, faster, and generally more in your face and challenging vs MM. But MM has a hell of a lot going for it too!

Quoted from o-din:

Is it a bigger minority to like Shadow more than both. I like it because of the difficulty. MM and AFM seem a lot like LOTR to me in the extremely long ball times. Shadow just cuts to the chase and kicks your ass! Last poll between the three, Shadow seemed to be gaining ground.

Say what?

I can understand saying MM has longer ball times. But AFM? Not in my experience. Maybe I just suck?
