While this doesn’t look like the type of unit that was made for an arcade environment, it certainly would make a nice addition to the game room (if you can afford it) By combining 4 Xbox 360 consoles together, it creates a very arcade-like experience for Forza 2. Some arcade games that have done this in the past include Atari’s TX-1 and Sega’s Ferrari F355 Challenge. With 3 37″ 1080p LCD screens, a Bose surround sound system, a virtual wind system(to give you the impression that you really are driving, an Italian Sparco Monza racing seat and more the Virtual Racer X simulator is a nice way to get that arcade experience with some console games that will never make the transition to the arcade itself.
