Don't get me wrong, it was fun to play over in Anaheim but hardly worth that sort of price tag

It's a linear based game using rear projection on a curved screen with some wind feedback

But that's about it!

The Graphics were hardly mind blowing compared to some modern games

Your best bet is to save your money for a decent rig/graphics card and wait for BATTLEFRONT!

;)

It is so big and unnecessary!

It's not actually that big, here's a side view pic

Oh and this is it's cousin using the same pod design but for a fighter jet flight simm

Saw one of these in the arcade at Event Cinemas on Queen St, so they're definitely in NZ.

That's a definite possibility, but for us/me it'll depend on the suburb the midnight events end up being in.
