Remakes are the same core, same cover, same thing as original.

Brick,

You think you know so much, why don't you ask anyone who bought the original One and then the re release of the One a few years later from Ebo. Most said it was not even close to the same ball.

Brunswick remade some DZs, Teal Rhinos, several Quantums. Guess what, different reactions.

Just because the material is the same, core is the same, etc, the machine making them could be a different line as Ebo has several lines. What if one machine is pouring the material at a slightly hotter temp? What if a manufacturing process changes since the original batch a few years (or many years) ago? There are MANY reasons a ball could be completely different. Heck, I have seen balls from different runs just a few months apart have a complete different feel and reaction.....this is years later.

Remakes are nice, but most of the time, there is nothing like an original!

Just wanted to point out, if my memory is correct, The One and the Encore to The One were 2 different balls....one came polished and the other came at 4000 Abralon....Not that I am agreeing with these prices and the comment about the machines being different could be the same with the original GameBreakers or any ball....I am sure the companies have more than 1 machine pouring these balls and cores. So even the same release of a ball at the exact same time could be different...

Kloss,

good point, but that is surface prep only. Remember the Super Carbide Bomb from Lane 1, which was a dull high load particle released back in 01 or 02? When USBC said nothing over .060 diff but all previous balls were grandfathered in, they could not produce any more new balls not already approved. Lane 1 said the ball was identical, just one was polished and the other dull. Identical core, identical cover material, etc. Surface prep is just that, surface prep and not a construction difference between balls. Now, if one had a wrap and the other did not around the core, then yes, they are different models. Everything here was identical except for the surface pre, which one spin on the spinner could have made them identical.

3835,

FYI, know enough to know better than to pay $300 for an original Gamebreaker and most others that know anything at all will also.

HAHAHA!!! $300 for a ball. Are these Lane #1 balls? Also the gamebreaker went for $120 new. Does Jr Team USA know your commiting highway robbery?

Brick,

I am not defending his prices, as I would not pay that for 2 balls undrilled. However, this is a free market and he can ask whatever he wants to ask for them. However, I was merely pointing out that simply because they say the ball is the same, does NOT make them the same.

Brickguy221 · « **Reply #12 on:** March 04, 2011, 07:34:58 PM »

3835,

We'll find out how close they are to the originals once they are released to the public and the public has had a chance to throw them. Right now there are none in my area and it appears only a select few have any, so it is too early to judge. Once the ball is out and widely distributed, we will see if it IS or IS NOT as good as the original. Until then, you are in no position to say that the remake is not the same as the original.

As for his prices, you are correct in saying it is a free market and he can ask what ever he wants to ask for them. However, I was merely pointing out that few if anyone will pay that unless it would be someone that didn't know better.

Funny how you can point out that until the remakes are released that I can't say they are not the same. Don't you think that then you are in no position to say they are the same either for the very same reason?

And for giggles, look back on the last 3 Ebonite rereleases. The year they produced 2 balls from their past, the Nirto R2 and the Puma? They hype was here we go, great balls, and they both flopped because the reactions were not what folks expected who had used the originals. Re release The One, and guess what, same deal.

When researching a thesis, you look for germinal and secondary data to support your hypothesis. My hypothesis is the ball will be different reacting and I have thoughts and reviews from indivduals on the past 3 Ebonite re releases that back the hypothesis. After three in a row, one would conclude re releases differ in some ways.

If it smells like chicken, clucks like a chicken, and walks like a chicken...chances are, its a chicken.

3835,

Reading is a skill. If you will go back and READ you will find that I said...."Remakes are the same core, same cover, same thing as original"....no where did I say the performance would be exactly the same as the original. Funny yourself how you can say it will be different just because something else in the past was different.....and maybe it will be different and you will end up being right, who knows? However until it is out and available for all to see and judge and not just yourself, you don't really know it will be different, you're just assuming so because something else in the past was different. Further discussion of this is fruitless until the ball is out and available for everyone to try, so this is my last post on this Gamebreaker remake subject until that time.....I'll leave it to you to have the last word here if it makes you feel better.
