Spider-Man VE

The Walking Dead (Premium)
Stern, 2014I'm torn and looking for the collective wisdom of Pinsiders.... do I pick up Walking Dead LE (or Premium - I have access to a LE) or a Spiderman Vault
To give context, my current collection is as follows: Iron Maiden Premium, AC/DC Luci Vault, Metallica Premium, Tron LE, Lord of the Rings LE, The Simpsons Pinball Party, and Monster Bash.
Fish Tales is awesome but not getting the plays I thought it would with my family so its going and one of these is coming in.
What would you do?
Quoted from TheGunnett:I’ve owned both and had Tron at the same. The similarities between Tron and Spider-Man would make me chose TWD if I were you you. We have similar taste, themes are vastly different and should be considered. TWD definitely requires the alternate call outs .
I disagree with the callouts. I know a lot of people hate the announcer but I like it. And yes, I watch the show. He does a fine job.
TWD with the sound package upgrade, by a mile.
Both great but I grow bored with spider man after a few games or one good one.
Walking dead is a just one more for me
Quoted from brett:I’ve owned SM vault, good pin, but not even
close for me.
TWD LE is one of the best overall games to own.
Great code and with Cleland call outs, it’s my #1 pinball machine.
100% agree with Brett.
I've owned SM twice, a fun pin, great flow but no comparison to TWD.
There's a Walking Dead Premium with a bunch of cool mods and add on's for $5900 on the marketplace here. I'd jump all over that before a SM VE.
Have owned both. Still own SMv and it may never leave. TWD is a very good pin. SMv is a great pin.
For me, TWD had way too many shots that end in the useless pop bumpers, and the code relies way too much on the drop targets. Drops should have been used for either mode light or blood bath...not both. Felt like that was 75% of what I was ever shooting for. Other than that...amazing game. Those two things kept it from being a keeper for me though. That said, I would never say never for owning one again someday.
SM is one of my favorite games ever. The shots are all super satisfying and the code is fun. Nowhere near as deep as TWD, but it works perfectly with the layout. Owned a red, loved it but wanted a mint condition one. Sold it once the vault came out and was able to land one of those a few months ago. I love both forms...slightly prefer the vault, but the original as awesome too.
