As far as the cost of the upgrade, several months ago I lowered the price of MA2.6 by $5, so that people wouldn't feel cheated to pay the $5 upgrade when MA3 comes out. MA2.6 will continue to be sold, for those whose machines can't handle 3.0.

But yes, it's a whole different program. Every line of code was re-written, and all new objects were created for the tank. It represents four years of work, and thousands of man-hours.

Regarding the Halo comparison, isn't there a monthly charge for online gaming? If I got $10 per month from all the SereneScreen users, I'd gladly make all the upgrades free.
