I'm happy with my MMR purchase but if there was an option at the time for a comparable MM at similar price point, I would have probably gone that route. But that's just it, before it was remade, we had no options other than overpaying for original MM's!
That all being said, the enhancements for the remake make it a good purchase too:
- Shaker motor (which is time well with the ogres and castle destruction)
- LED lighting (which looks tasteful, not overly blaring bright)
- factory double clear coat (which I'm sure is comparable to diamond plate)
- factory trim options
So in summation here is my advice to people on both sides of this argument:
Life is too short to bitch about such petty things. Play the damn game you own and enjoy it!
