James, I haven't played either, but I'm pretty familiar with the history of both. Keep in mind that Lakeside now is a far cry from the one seen on the Jones films. Mother nature had not been kind to arguably Behr's finest creation and other arch's have been in there and left their mark. Bel Air has had it's share of changes as well, not the least of which was the gutting of some of Thomas' coolest creations by Dick Wilson, namely the Mae West 12th. If pressed, I would rather play Bel Air, but I think seeing both would make me wonder what used to be.
