I've had an XL for over a year, and it probably doesn't have 20 games on it yet. Not because I don't like it, but because I find it to to be very condition specific. It's way too much ball in one house, and not quite enough in the other. The midlane produced by the core is too strong for dry and the cover is too skittish for wet. The few times that it has matched up, it's been excellent, but it just doesn't happen very often.
