But I see all the criticism JJP is taking over this new LE and I look at STERN releasing 3 or 4 different versions of games and making each version almost an entirely unique game and I see it as different but the same. And didn't Stern release a new version of AC/DC... this LUCI pin?

I'm not siding with either company I'm just not sure I understand why everyone is talking cancelling orders with one company but seems to still be lapping up whatever the other one throws out.

Game in hand is worth two announced games in the bush.

Both are trying to sqeeze every last dollar they can out of games they have already produced....a good way to do this...is to change up the look a little.

Yeah, both JJP and Stern are now equal in this "crime" of trying to make more money! HOW DARE THEY!

Stern very recently committed the "crime" with this ACDC announcement, so give the haters time to hate. It seems that people assumed (up until now) that Stern's "premium" version of the game was the only LE-like version of the game Stern would sell once the original LE title(s) were sold. Now we know this is not necessarily true.

If there is money to be made, *OF COURSE* a company is going to try to get it! If it was your company, wouldn't you? (to nobody specifically)

It does peak more interest in a top tier game they still have in production.
