Well today I received an unsolicited trade offer from a local collector I have never met. Never played the game myself yet but was wondering what people here would prefer?

both seem to get a similar rating on ipdb. I recently just got my Mars working after sinking lots of money into replacement boards. Sounds like this guy has done the same with his. He is also claiming perfect playfield and backglass

I think at the min I should at least go and play a few games on his.

Both have lots of targets and pop bumpers with speech and multi ball.

Giving it a test run is a good idea...

Personally, however, I'd rather own an Embryon. Playfield isn't sparse, nice colorful artwork, and better sound effects in my opinion. If you ever decide to sell it in the future, you'll probably be able to find a buyer more easily for this one as well since it's more photogenic for your average Craig's Lister (if you ever decide to go that route).
 
I would trade a Mars GOW for an Embryon. I've had both and Embryon is far more fun. Embryon and Paragon were the 2 best widebody pins Bally made. --Rich

I have played Paragon before and that game is just badass. I don't know what is better the art package or the gameplay. I am going to make some arrangements over the holidays to go and play some games thanks for the input guys
 
there was a guy who was trying to get an official repro done but threw in the towel. it is like 7mb file if your email can handle it pm me your email address and i will send you the file i used.

not perfect but very passable
