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!
Which makes us wanting it even more now.....
Peace is a lie, there is only passion.
Through passion, I gain strength.
Through strength, I gain power.
Through power, I gain victory.
Through victory, my chains are broken.
The Force shall free me.

Re: Star Wars Battle Pod
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
Wonder if it's cheaper

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.Harvey Mushman wrote:Does anybody wanna have a couple of games before Midnight Madness?
