Anyone remember the 360. The Sega R360 arcade cabinet that is? I only got to try this out once playing the afterburner clone game, but it was awesome, even though I died pretty quickly as I kept doing 360 spins rather than focusing on the game and it cost an arm and a leg for a credit . I wish these were still around but using modern games.

Please tell me there is a modern equivalent being worked on or out in the real world already.

Played this at the Disneyland Starcade.

I played it at an arcade at Blackpool, UK. Pretty sure it was £5 a credit which would be the equivalent of $15 or so in today's money. Still well worth it.

Wouldn't sticking your finger down your throat accomplish the same thing for much cheaper?

It's in Terminator 2. Got it cued up below. edit- wrong one.

I got to play the HOTD arcade where you're in a ride basically and the cart spins around. I think it was HOTD 3 maybe?

Total gimmick but was neat.

Anyone remember the Jurassic Park game where it just violently rumbles the whole time. It was painful as a 10 year old, can't imagine sitting on that thing as an adult, lol.

Nah that is those cabinets that move around a little like the original afterburner. The r360 was on a whole other level.

LOL, holy shit. You're absolutely right, my bad.

Never seen that before, that's hilarious.

Same.
I loved this thing.

I played it once, the game with it was G-Loc a sequel to Afterburner BUT it was a special short version of the game so you could only play a few minutes for your £5. It was cool arcade tech but it didn't feel like you were actually in the plane. You spun around a lot thinking this is awesome and then it was over.

It must be a blast to play, especially with G-LOC: Air Battle and Rad Mobile. They should have added Power Drift as well.

Like this post if you opened this thread thinking it would be another "Microsoft buys SEGA" / "SEGA Dreamcast 2 is the Xbox 360" thread.

Is there a way to buy a setup like that for current games? I am confident that as long as you have the hardware it is a matter of tuning drivers.

Looks like the world doesn't rotate in the game when the seat does, which I'd think would feel very confusing.
