Quoted from ViperVS:

Jurassic Park is already really close to #1 and this one seems to be better in every aspect.

I think Godzilla looks great but my initial impression of JP was better. The JP layout/gameplay seems more balanced for one. I also think that the AIQ layout may be more impressive even though other aspects of that game fell short for me. It seemed like most of Godzilla gameplay was either shooting the building or setting up the left flipper for loop shots. It didn't really seem like the crumbling bridge or MechaGodzilla were as integral as I thought they'd be. I do think the lightshow is awesome and I really like how the pop bumper is integrated. The rules look fun but I don't know if I see anything quite as cool as the Paddock rules in JP or the ball eating TRex. Overall though I think Godzilla will end up being a top tier Stern game, I'm just not ready to crown it the new King yet. I'm excited to play one!

Quoted from truemagoo102:

Thinking about that - having a JP and a Godzilla side by side is the ultimate 1 2 punch- right flipper heavy game with a left flipper heavy game.

I agree. I think JP pairs with it well because it contrasts the most. To me Godzilla feels like a cross between Maiden and AIQ and I don't see too many similarities to JP. I sold a Maiden Pro prior to getting JP and regret it. I thought that having 2 KME games in a small collection would lead to a lack in diversity but the games play different enough and the rulesets are completely different. I could see picking up a Godzilla Pro at some point to take its place.

Quoted from LOTR_breath:

Agree. I'm not knocking Spooky. Just saying what I'm seeing. I played Ultraman. It should cost half of what Godzilla costs but it doesn't. Unless you're a huge Ultraman fan, if your choosing that over Godzilla you'll be very disappointed.

I'm not sure how you're getting that. Even the $7k version of Ultraman has a real backglass, custom powdercoat, premium sound system, multiple mini playfields, 4 flippers and way more RGB Leds than Godzilla. Ultraman is stacked!

I played the Pro for the first time tonight on route. Managed to put up the GC score and see quite a bit that the game had to offer. I did notice in that game that the magnet stopped working towards the end of the game likely due to heat build-up. That's really the only negative I found on the game. It was extremely fun to shoot and I enjoyed the callouts and video animations. I think the game will be a huge hit. I honestly think I would be content to own just the Pro on this one, it didn't really feel like it was lacking in any way. I thought the artwork looked great in person too.

The Insider connection worked well too. The only thing I found is that I had to raise the brightness on my phone screen for the reader to read the QR code. It's pretty cool to have the app keep track of your stats and achievements.
