Can't be, its vertical... I've seen the game but the name escapes me at the moment.
pbwizard: I used a 19" 4:3 LG in my bartop. Seemed like the best way to get a large monitor in a relatively small cab. Its a 2ms monitor, so I don't notice any blurring or input lag. The biggest weakness I see with new LCD's is that they still are pretty weak at reproducing blacks.
I mostly solved this by using a tinted bezel. Heres the thread with screenshots of the LCD and how I mounted it:

Thanks TOK, glad to see you have joined the "dark side" with my thinking.

good start on your cab too by the way Droler

northerngames:

daphne dreamcast nes N64 ETC. there all made 15K and will display corect and best at 15K

LCD will not display any of them native and true as 15K

I just beat call of duty 2 and resident evil 4 I also have around 20+ new pc games that I play on a 15K monitor

if you dont mind stretched and squashed heads then lcd are fine but it will not display anything you mentioned better then a 15K  ;)

I am sure all those games you mentioned will run fine on a 15K also.

a used $150.00 27" 15K would not be bad compared to $550.00 and you may want to read all the small print on lcd warrenty's.

I also have a showcase but it is a 39" wells gardner  :cheers:

You play COD on an arcade monitor? I play COD on a 1080p LCOS but that's just me.

Squashed heads? Um I keep it at the correct aspect ratio, does that mean you stretch your vertical games?

A used $150 monitor + a $125 graphic card & cables + $25 cap kit = $300. Then you just hope it doesn't have burn in, or problems later on. Add in the time to not only "hack" it but the time searching craigslist & ebay means I would be better off actually showing up to work during those hours to make up the $250 price difference.

In store service plans = 4-5 years of no troubles for $45

Funny, I thought Mario was always played on a 480i TV set back in 1987.

PC games & visual pinball still suck on an arcade monitor no matter what & for some reason even Mario looks better on my PC then on my arcade monitors. TigerWoods & Virtua Tennis.............eh nevermind.


 :blah: :blah: :blah:

We can have LCD wars vs CRT all day long, I prefer LCD now but was once a CRT fanboy. I just wanted to see LCD's in other peoples cabinets other than Knievel's.

But kudos on the 39" monitor, thats SICK!!!!!

Well, I *have* the PC version. But that's not it.

That's the second time someone has asked me that - is it a faux pas to have a screen shot of that showing?
