Going to throw some love to ES. I have owned 2 JDs and on my 3rd and final ES.
JD was a lot of fun but for me got old fast, and that was with a cherry game with the dredd world mod. I think it’s the theme that gets old for me can’t really put my finger on it.
ES on the other hand is just a good solid design that is appealing to look at with a well thought out original theme and although easy play it is just fun. My third ES is a sample with original sinking building that has been total restored.
My vote is for ES and believe you can find a nice one in the 2 to 2.5k range.
