Holy cow! That's absolutely unacceptable. Imagine putting your game on location and in a week's time the clearcoat starts chipping all over the place. Every Bally, Williams, Data East, and Sega game I work on doesn't show these kinds of issues. Typical insert wear is one thing, but immediate failure on a brand new game that costs as much as a car is infuriating. I'm still looking for a reason to buy Stern games, and I just don't see it.
