I have not used both.

BUT as I expected...the Gamebreaker is a VERY low RG core.

2.45.

That is a heavy rolling piece of equipment and that is what I have seen.

The Thunderstruck solid is a more midrange rg ball.  RG = like 2.54.  Quite a difference in heaviness of roll.  I've SEEN both.

REgards,

I dont have both but I own the t-road solid and I have seen alot of gamebreakers thrown and I have thrown one. It seems to me that the game breaker is stronger on the backend but is still very smooth and it is earlier then the T-road which clears the heads very well and has a smooth and strong arc on it. Both are great balls planing on getting a gamebreaker sometime as well cause of how good of a ball it is. Hope it helps any other questions about the traod I will try to help or what not.

Gamebreaker is earlier and has alittle more backend, the t-road solid handles more oil and goes about 2-3 feet farther before hooking in the midlane.

I have both drilled identical 4 1/2 pin to pap and both at 2k no polish. It is a toss up for which ball is better, some days they work well some days they are ok.

if it helps i threw a game breaker last night at a demo day. for the money its well worth a try. for me this ball had pretty much the same move as the angular one except it read the shot earlier. The angular one is about 30 bucks on avg. more than the game breaker ,but the gamebreaker is totally comparable to it. Of all the balls i threw,nvs,total nv,raid,rsx300and the angular one if i were to buy one it would be the gamebreaker.Not a dry lane ball by anymeans.It is a ball that if there is oil you can play up the boards with it and if the shot calls for you to play inside it seemed more than willing to come back home with good carry,and for 90 bucks,man let me stop i dont need any more balls .

Gamebreaker is pretty condition specific. If there isn't alot of head oil, don't bring the ball out.. And as soon as there is dry, it will be taking off like a rocket.

Local shop likes putting the Gamebreaker in bowlers who come up the back of the ball and would use a T-Road solid for players with hand since it will push further down the lane for them.
