If I had to do it all over again I would buy ST again in a heartbeat! Maybe it's a little different for me because I didn't buy it NIB?

It's a top 30 pin right now and with a few tweaks it could be a top 10 pin.

Personally I like it better than MET and I really like MET. Does it need some attention? Yes....yes it does. There is a lot that could be improved. But like I said, it would go from good to great.

Quoted from snaroff:

Fact is, Stern will have some duds. I bought STLE because of the license, bling, and lead designer. Was clear to me after a couple weeks that it wouldn't last in my collection. The code needs a total rework and that will never happen...

Are you calling ST a dud? By no metric is ST a dud.

It's currently a top 30 pin here. With a good code update it could be a top 10 pin. Personally I love it and it's one of my favorites. I prefer it over MET and AC/DC (Please note the I do love MET and think AC/DC is pretty good).

It's got great flow, speed, lights & sound. Fantastic shots and interesting modes. Does it need a code update.....yes it does. Will I keep mine if it never gets one? Yes I will.

If ST was just released today and we knew exactly the current state of the code.....I would still buy one.

Quoted from Rarehero:

I've said this before - but they're not taking advantage of the SAM system - USB updates. Waiting for a big update made sense in the old days if you had to burn a ROM every time...but that's not the case anymore....I don't know why Stern is against "trickle" updates. Sure there's lots of stuff to fix....but code the Prem/LE flashers, and release that as an update. Then when the bugs are fixed release that as an update. Then when you make some gameplay tweaks, release that as an update.
Small updates every so often will squash this psychology of abandonment, make customers happy and keep us from badgering Stern about this stuff.

Why the hell are we arguing about the merits of Pro vs LE???

Different strokes.

I went Pro. Others like the LE........BFD.

Did you hear that new code WILL be coming?
