As an open source developer I welcome this (the fact it's open from what I have heard) but the piece that gets me is 2 games for 10k. No it's really 1 physical game with different stuff on the LCD. The playfield layout will always be identical. So 5 different games is still pretty much the same core game.
People here bitch if stern uses a similar layout for 2 different games even with a retheme and different software. Could you imagine the exact same layout, base artwork, etc with the only variance being what's shown on the LCD? I can see the witch hunt now.
What made p2k interesting was the playfield was the module and a small piece of software. Take that modularity away and it becomes redundant to play the same exact playfield over and over regardless of what's displayed.
I think it's cool as hell personally.
