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.

    We really are working on the same wave length. When I sent you this I was thinking exactly of the:

    Atari ‘TX-1’ – http://www.klov.com/images/11/1181242177295.jpg
    Namco ‘Drivers Eye’ – http://www.klov.com/images/10/1035740638.jpg
    Sega ‘Ferrari F355’ – http://www.klov.com/images/11/118124210641.jpg

    Yet again, arcade did it first, and to be honest better – as once I found out how much the consumer system costs I could buy two classic arcade cabs!
