So what's the verdict on this game? I heard that currently Stalla change their approach to one comparable to Becker's CPA review with instructors like Peter Olinto? is that true?

I've used both.

CFA Level 1 - Fail, then Pass with Schweser
CFA Level 2 - Fail with Stalla.

Overall I like Schweser better.  They attack the LOS well and leave you feeling as if you learned the material, not just gamed it for the exam.

^^ Yea it seems everybody going with Schweser, I have a friend who passed both of L1 and L2 and he's saying the same thing, but maybe it's me but i'd prefer studying on video lectures, so the question is schweser's video lectures still better than Stalla?

I used both for Level 1, I like Schweser better.  But Stalla videos, just like Beckers were obviously superior.  Schweser for it's QBank and study guides.  They were pretty similar though.  I do think the QBank is superior than passmaster.  You can easily pass with either one, just a function of how much time you spend on it.
