i agree. If your other 2 are horizontal machines, a vertical setup will give you a lot more playable games, and IMHO, a lot more enjoyment.
i love gun games, but I would keep that in mind for my next cab... I'd definitely want a vertical cab before a gun cab.

So, even though I already have the vertical games that I want on the other
horizontal machine(Galaga, Commando etc), you still recommend it?

Yes. If you have a 25" monitor, the vertical "screen" is roughly the same as a 19" screen, but there's just something that feels "right" about playing on a true vertical screen.
If you were only making one cab, I'd say go horizontal, but if you have the option, I'd always prefer a true horizontal and a true vertical cab.

I DO have a 25" monitor, but I see your point perfectly.
However, that would amount to four machines all-in-all:
1 x 8-way horizontal
1 x 4-way horizontal
1 x 8-way vertical
1 x 4-way vertical
:dizzy:

go with a 49 way and get 4 for both x and + paterns and 8 way and 49 way. jusathot
