There's no doubt that Operators as well as the Home market were part of Stern's decision. It is a very good one. Metallica was a huge seller, Star Trek didn't take off to the heights they would have expected and then there's there's the ford dealer's machine - Mustang, which no one outside a Ford dealership would be interested in other than a few ops. So I see Iron Man as another "run", and Stern have the right to do that. It was a Pro - if they re-run a "limited Edition" then I'd be VERY annoyed if I owned an LE. But Iron Man only had one version. So I think it is a great idea. It is not a remake. It is a re run. There's no new technology except finished code. I would seriously think of purchasing this title if they did a LE version, but the pricetag is still too high.

I think it is a strategic market decision. I have no problem with it.
