I had a MB and now have a SS. I would say for the difference in price SS all the way. I am enjoying SS very much right now. MB was great but it was very expensive. I have learned to enjoy the layout of SS. The back box spider also makes the game a little more fun. They are both great though. They both have great sounds. They both have great light shows though I think SS has a little better light show. You can't go wrong with either.
