We
are still talking about a $10 price for the 1.5 Version of SH4, aren't we? A version which will undoubtedly see many continuing MODs of all sorts, and Campaigns, and improvements to MODs and Campaigns, etc etc etc...
A single 90 minute Cra&p movie at the cinema would cost as much, lots more if you toss in Popcorn and a soft drink.
I guess I just don't understand why anyone would want to stay behind with the 1.4 Version while the train full of Expert Modders puls out of the station. But...to each his own.
