Wanted to skip both but for some reason thinking of getting one of them.

If GB?

Buy pro, premium or LE?

If AS?

Buy pro?

GB or AS or nothing?

#2 7 years ago

AS for me!

My first NIB Stern if you can believe it.

#3 7 years ago

Too much risk. Bad PF, Bad Cabinets, Bad Code.
If you REALLY want a NIB... wait for the rumored Ritchie game.
My $0.02

No. Theme kills both of them for me.

#5 7 years ago

I got both GB premium and AS pro. Love them both.

How's your Aerosmith cab holding up? Any issues on GB?

#7 7 years ago

I like both pins but tend to be picky when making purchases of items that cost $7,000.00 + . I won't be buying until the qc issues are resolved.

#8 7 years ago

Just bought GBLE,with no issues.

I don't believe it! But thanks for asking...

I would hold off to see how Star Wars looks before pulling the trigger on anything. It might cause a lot of HUO games to go on the market to free up some cash, so there could be some good deals to be had. If you have to have something sooner, I would say that you go Ghostbusters Premium. It's the best value and experience of what you listed. I have a GBLE, and unless you're a super fan, the premium is a smarter pick.

I bought gb premium and I regret it. Just too many issues plus I have one sliver of ghosting.

#12 7 years ago

I've had my GB Premium since November and it's been solid. No ghosting on inserts. I had an issue out of the box with the display but got that replaced quickly. I absolutely love it.

I would hold off until they do something more interesting than that.

#14 7 years ago

I found myself actually interested in AS much more than I expected. It's a cool looking game. I would/will probably own a GB premium someday though. It's a cool game and premium all the way for GB. Pro probably on AS. Overall, I'm going to wait and get star wars before either.

#15 7 years ago

Own both GB premium and AS pro. Both are a hoot!

That's a pretty big 180 in opinion. "Too much risk, lots of issues, so go buy the game that comes out in a few weeks."

I can't read that quote without imagining it being read by Rick James "yeah I remember grinding my feet on his couch."

Aerosmith is awesome, and I would re-buy it again in a second. I've bought many NIB games over the years and Aerosmith LE has been one of the best so far. Other top NIB games would have been Monster Bash, Tron, and Metallica - so you can see my tastes in games.

No issues with the Aerosmith cab so far. Only issue with GB was slimer dragging, but Adjusted that out of it pretty well.

I've only ever bought 1 other new in box game before my Aerosmith Premium...and I'm having too much fun playing to answer your question right now!!!
