It certainly looks that way in all the media I've seen...

Just like there are those who appreciate EM's, and those who like old SS, or early DMD... But this one feels a little "replicade" to me - not that there's anything wrong with that if it appeals to you. Me personally I'd like the original with the option to adapt a new ruleset to the board using that Nano board thingy. Somehow all the video distracts from the physical part of the mix...

But who knows - maybe if they come out with Centaur II.2 I'll need one to match my original
