Gamebreaker
« on: February 08, 2011, 05:12:03 PM »
I'm sure this post has been beaten to death before. I've heard rumors that the Gamebreaker is coming back out?  Wondering and hoping what I've heard is true

IMHO I believe the Mission is being dicontinued because once the Mission 2.0 came out, it more or less killed any future sells of the original. When the Domination/$250K came out, it basically did the same thing to the 2.0. So I am not surprised that it is discoed.

As far as the GB...not sure, but I had heard previously that the GB would be grandfathered in as far as the core is concerned, as it was released before the change. But do not quote me on this.

Im going to my distributor in a few days time, i'll upload a pic of the MASSES of gamebreakers they have in 14,15 and 16. Probably close to 200 balls in total. Maybe this was international re release? The new Gamebreaker hooks a little more in the back than the original IMO

 At the present moment, if international release, that would make sense that your distributor might have these balls.

MTD300 is correct. It was re-released here in Europe some months ago. I was surprised to hear on Xtra Frame that there were no plans for a re-release as I had already received my test ball. This is the flyer my distributor (Bowltech, same as MTD I suspect) sent out in November 2010 http://www.bowltech.dk/flyers/gamebreaker.pdf

 

It is the original V2 core and I found no significant differences between the original vs. the re-release

 

This is the review I wrote on October 19th http://www.bowltech.dk/ballreviews/ebonite-gamebreaker/. And if you look in the Ebonite section you'll find that the other three test staffers also wrote reviews late last year.

 

Hope this clears up the confusion

 Why would the Ebonite reps on this site not know about this?

Those that can do. Those that can't complain. Pimpin ain't easy, but it's mandatory.

Most things we like, we don't need. Most things we need, we don't like. Don't confuse your likes with your needs.

 The Gamebreaker that is being re-released is exactly the same as the original. One of the big shops out West that does a lot of Ebonite ball tests already recieved a case to test and do a video. I also saw a few Ebonite guys using them while out bowling the TOC a few weeks ago.

If I am not mistaken, I "think" Mika had a Gamebreaker in his arsenal last Sunday, but don't think he threw it.

Hopefully this is true, would like to get my hands on a couple of these since I was out of the game when the Game Breaker was out.....

Instead of "A Future For The Sport", it really should be "A Sport Without A Future"

I everyone was throwing them this week at US Open so I guess that's a good sign.
