Post by wip3outguy7 »

This is a video I had been meaning to do for a long time. Hopefully I did the place justice.

Thanks!

Hmmm, Austin's Park. It's pretty terrible. It has the potential to be a nice place to game, but the cabs are in horrible shape. My company threw an event there about a year ago and every machine, EVERY MACHINE had something wrong with it. Player one on the Soul Calibur 2 machine would work fine while player 2 couldn't block or move right. Player 2's steeringwheel would rock back and forth over and over on the Initial D machine. Crisis Zone's gun desperately needed to be calibrated and the display looked like someone pissed inside of it. The hydrolics on Sega GT were out on both cars, meaning you had to sit sideways to play because the car would lop over. They had one of those all-in-one mame style machines but diagonals wouldn't register on other side, making special moves impossible while playing fighting games.

This poor condition wasn't exclusive to the arcade area. The go-karts kept dying in mid run, too. I wasn't even going to try the Laser Tag.

The sad thing is, even with all of those problems, it's still probably better than the Main Event on 183 or any of the many Chucky Cheese...
