## Road Trip ## GALAXIAN THEATER from NAMCO !!!

[Level42]

Sometimes reflections are actually very cool. If you ever played the Star Wars cockpit with the original cardboard bezel you'll know what I mean....

But I guess that wouldn't work on the G3 because your view is already almost completely filled by the huge screen compared to the SW cockpit.

[Superully]

Yes yes, jeez me. But you do agree that I have a certain point in the argument. The brain does need oxygen, and you need your brain to play well. I really hope that the circulation by the game fans will be sufficient, or I will bring my own oxygen tank into the theater.

are you really serious about all of that? are you thinking about suffocation when you're on the toilet as well?

[uncletom]

I have never played the Star Wars cockpit with the original cardboard bezel, so I don't know what you mean. Please tell me.

Ully, ofcourse. I'm very sensitive.

Mmmm, my toilet does have a connection to the central ventilation in my house  

[uncletom]

Come on guys, don't bring toilets into the picture, please!

Here's a picture of my SW cockpit bezel:



(Isn't it funny where you find back your own pictures, this is on an Australian forum )

THe "light" stripes are actually metal/mirror/shiny looking. When it's installed in the cockpit, the stripes will reflect the colors on the screen. It gives a bit of a "tunnel" like view. You will never miss it when you've never seen it before, but when it's there you don't want to play it without anymore. It just adds a little something to the whole cockpit feeling.

nobody is that sensitive. this monster is wide open. i would even play it without any problems if all the seats were in fact toilets.

[uncletom]

Ully, easy for you to say. You have an integrated breathing system in your helmet there.

Level, thanks for the pic. Awesome idea actually. I've never seen that bezel, I thought the cockpit version had a black paper-bezel just like the upright has. Well then, I'm really curious now. Do you have the game rigged up to play at home now?

... Is there a plane leaving for Holland today?

Level, could you film it for me, please?

[Etienne MacGyver]

He even has it running on a oscilloscope !

Sorry for going off topic Bruno

Of course my SW cockpit is 100% working

Oh and both sides of the cab are wide open 


Look at my Youtube channel for plenty of videos of my SW cockpit:

Thanks Level. I'm looking at your kanaaal  now. Awesome stuff.

.. but there's nothing about your bezel there.

I really want to go to Eurocade, but my Camilla wants to tour eastern europe this summer, so it looks like I'll be driving in the Czech republic instead.

[Q*ris]

I'm really concerned that you won't be able to breathe correctly in your car.
Don't forget to smash all the windows before leaving for vacations...

Cars have active air-conditioning, the G3 doesn't. When you sit there playing, starting to feel dizzy, remember that I brought the issue up. I mean, it's not difficult to do something about it, you can just put a regular air-fan from any store blowing air into one 'door', the air would circulate exiting the other 'door'. That would be sufficient. I'm only mentioning this for your convenience. Not as a joke.

the thing is wide open. if you are in an intense battle you can fall out of the chair, roll over and you are out of it. we played 4 matches with 6 more or less smelly men... no problem at all. did you ever play it?

Mmmm remember, the Czech border patrols hate tourist season:
