    Only CGC has directly exceeded WPC. Upgraded technology and features to the original games. I know some prefer the original, but it is upgraded in my opinion. Plywood bottoms, LCDs, big LCDs, colored dot emulation, toppers, more to come.

    Quoted from LTG:

    I called Williams. No answer.
    I called Stern, they answered.
    Stern succeeded. They kept open when Williams didn't. And kept open in the worst decade of coin op ever.
    LTG : )

    If Gomez, or Sullivan, or Eddy or Ritchie or Sheats.....answered when you called Stern, then Williams heartbeat is still there I say.

    Quoted from gunstarhero:

    Stern makes some cool games, but I don’t think you’ll ever see something like TZ or IJ or STTNG again... well, except from JJP.

    or CGC.
