Its not an easy call. Personally,saving $2400 by buying the AC/DC Pro over a Premium gave me a $2400 head start towards looking at a new X-Men title etc as well to add to the collection. So saving $$ here will be of benefit to some new machine collectors, but not to others. I felt getting the best of both worlds was better for me. A PRO version of the AC/DC or X-Men titles will get u a ripper of a game. U dont have to buy a LE/Premium to get great gameplay and features.
It would be interesting to see what numbers of each model have been sold in Australia (ratio of Pro versus Premium versus LE) ?
