Guest Boba Rhett Posted February 21, 2001 Posted February 21, 2001 I've heard about it. I didn't know it was that cool though. Doesn't the seat look like the cockpit? Like my new sig? ------------------ I live here ya know.
Pedro The Hutt Posted February 22, 2001 Posted February 22, 2001 I'm dying to try it, but I can't find it. And Boba: Yes, I noticed. ------------------ No! I am your father.
Jedi SuperBuen Posted February 22, 2001 Posted February 22, 2001 I have my own Pod Racer at home that I made and whenever I play Racer I have my girlfriend shake it with the motion of the game for true realism... Or not... ------------------ You can do it your own way Just as long as it's done just how I say...
Guest Kurgan Posted February 22, 2001 Posted February 22, 2001 Even though I haven't played Racer in a long time.. it would be great for parties with a bunch of friends. ; ) Kurgan [This message has been edited by Kurgan (edited February 22, 2001).]
Guest Jawamaster Posted February 23, 2001 Posted February 23, 2001 Sweet! How do the controls work? ------------------ Jawamaster
Guest Kurgan Posted February 23, 2001 Posted February 23, 2001 I don't know, haven't played it. I have never seen it live either (no arcades around here have it). I have read though that it has a control bar (see picture). I imagine it is supposed to be more like the "real thing" from the movie. But the gameplay is supposedly like the PC/console versions. But I can't say for certain as I haven't played it. Kurgan
Guest Darth Crater Posted February 26, 2001 Posted February 26, 2001 My brother has played it. He really had fun with it! I don't know if there are Camelot Parks where you guys live (it's a miniature golf place), but that's where he played it.
Guest Ikhnaton Posted February 27, 2001 Posted February 27, 2001 I've played it several times. It looks good, and the controls are more like the movie, but i had trouble with them.
Guest Jawamaster Posted March 3, 2001 Posted March 3, 2001 There is a Camelot right by a fries off the freeway, on, I think, Kraemer street. ------------------ Jawamaster
Guest Kurgan Posted April 19, 2001 Posted April 19, 2001 Man, I wish I could try this one out. ; p Arcades are disappearing left and right.. it's sad really. I love arcades! I noticed Dreamcast games are getting marked down (due to changes in Sega's corporate strategy), and I see DC Racer is among them. Anybody played it? Kurgan Star Wars Trilogy, another great SW arcade game... [This message has been edited by Kurgan (edited April 18, 2001).]
Pedro The Hutt Posted April 19, 2001 Posted April 19, 2001 Both are (as usual) Quality Sega Games. BTW, the Arcade Pod has 2 handles like in the movie, that's how you control it. BTW, DC Epi. I racer is basically the PC version with a newer graphics. Altough the Arcade version is a completely new game. (PLEASE SEGA, BRING THAT ONE TO THE DC!) ------------------ No! I am your father.
Guest Kurgan Posted April 22, 2001 Posted April 22, 2001 That would be cool. And since Sega is the company that did SWT, that would be an even more "natural" release.. ; ) Kurgan
Guest JediKnight_114[b] Posted April 24, 2001 Posted April 24, 2001 I played it once and was really disappointed. I expected something like my PC version, but it travels at the pace of NasCar, and handles like a hovercraft. The controls are twin handles where full thrust is both handles forward, to turn you pull back on whichever stick that is in the direction you want to turn. I found them very awkward. Anyway, I lost in about one minute since I couldn't make the checkpoints, and stuck with Star Wars Trilogy Arcade instead. Now that game rocks. Oh, if any of you are looking for a place that has Arcade Racer, I played it at Aladdin's Castle. So it might be there if you have one close by. Happy Gaming. ------------------ The Force will be with you...Always.
