[QUOTE="Nesbro, post: 165189, member: 4605"] I recall Farsight saying AC/DC carried an astronomical license, but also saying Metallica was in their "someday list". I just find that strange since Metallica is just as famous as AC/DC. They would surely cost as much, if not even more, depending on how much all the licensed music is. Then there's the issue of keeping the E10 rating. It's not like Metallica is like some sort of X-rated table, but from what I know (sorry if I sound stupid, but I only played it once, and I didn't do too well, so I don't know much about it.), the callouts have a bit of swearing, and some of the animations on the table and such could possibly be considered violent or inappropriate. There might also be an issue with emulation. I don't know if the systems of the modern Sterns would require a lot of horsepower on the average PC, given they're a fair bit more complex than older systems. Don't mean to rain on everyone's parade, but to sum it up, Metallica and AC/DC seem kind of unlikely due to the expense and all that. If you ask me, The Shadow or maybe TSPP would be the most likely. They'd be easier to emulate and possibly less expensive. Both do have pretty big talent, but I think the JP, Metallica and AC/DC would be a lot more costly. [/QUOTE]
