What year was this edition released?

It was published this year, 2018

Steve Jackson Games Illuminati 2nd Edition: Includes rules, 110 cards, 8 giant-sized reference cards, 2 sheets of money counters, and 2 dice.

There are 110 cards total in the game.

I see two versions of this game here on Amazon. Which will give me the better (more fun) experience?

As of 2020, the cultural references are a good bit less dated in the current version: the older one is basically 80s-era. But that's just chrome -- and subordinate chrome at that; general conspiracy zaniness is more dominant. The play experience of the two is not significantly different.
