Agreed tough call. Very different games. Demoman is all flow and speed, pretty shallow but still very fun to play. Tommy is a clunker but very good theme integration, lots of fun modes and the blinder is a really cool toy. for me I'd buy the Tommy just because I've already owned a DM. Or buy both and be done with it, it's only money  |

If you like fast pinballs, DM all the way! |

Not a big Tommy fan. The game itself is fun, just not crazy about the music. I'd prefer The Who singing instead of the musical score, but that's a personal preference. For that reason along, I could never own Tommy.
That said, I think Tommy is a better game and if you can get over the music --- I cann't -- it's actually quite good. When I had the game, I enjoyed playing it. After awhile though, the music and quotes started to annoy me.
You milage may vary.

Tommy hands down...every DM I had always had issues and seemed to be prone to breaking down in a million different ways. I only ever had one Tommy but I really enjoyed it! Investment value IMO definitely favors Tommy too.

If only Tommy had been done like GnR with original artists tracks. It would be a no brainer, despite not being the best playfield layout.
WPC the better choice. Not just any, but this one is decent. |

I'd buy the Tommy personally. It's VERY high on my want list. Great multiball, decent modes, blinders. I like the cab artwork as well. |

As someone that currently owns both, I prefer TOMMY. That's not to say I don't
think DemoMan is a good game. DemoMan is very fast, except for when the ball
goes into the claw, but it doesn't have a lot of depth and the rules really are
unbalanced toward the multiball. TOMMY has plenty of modes and like previously
said the blinders are a really neat toy.
I think if you like the sounds of TOMMY go for it, if you think they will drive you crazy
go for DemoMan. As far as reliability goes after getting them both working 100%, I've
had no real problem with either machine, except the mirror on TOMMY does seem to
require adjusting after several games.

Wow tough call but i have to go with DM.
I? find dm to be faster game to play and good flow. |
| Life is like Pinball!! You never know where you will bounce or where your going but sometimes you have that one amazing shot But on the other hand you have those darn gutter ball where you just get frustrated. |
