Thought I'd get this thread back "on topic" -- got a question for BYOAC'ers:

What would you like to see in GameRoom? What's your "dream interview?" What machine would you like to see a retrospective on? Any interest in MAME stuff, or just restoration of classic arcades? Any non-arcade game room stuff you'd like to see more of?

I would love to see some DIY gameroom decoration ideas. It could be anything - painting, organizing, custom art, etc. I realize the news section kind of does this, but a more indepth article on a specific subject would be a neat read for a page or two each issue.

I've seen a couple neat custom items in the "gameroom of the month" section, and it always fascinated me to hear the backstory on them. The main one that comes to mind is the crazy guy who decorated his ceiling 100% with football helmets. I was wondering how in the hell he did that, then find he wrote a big section about it. That is kind of what I had in mind.

P.S. I might be able to have my arm twisted into heading this up. It would be sweet to be published!

I was curious, did anyone else feel that George Gomez came off a little too cocky and condescending in his interview? The way he phrased things kind of rubbed me the wrong way.

I think Jed Margolin would be a good candidate for an interview. The guy worked with Atari for "ages" compared to some others, so he should be able to tell some nice stories.....at least I hope :)

Kev, if that on-line/pdf version would become real I'd subscribe in a heart-beat. Especially when it will have the nice form of a real magazine where you can flip pages, easily zoom in and out etc. that you see regularly now on the internet. Much like this:

That still wouldn't be half as good as a real paper one, but coming close. I do understand that there may be some concerns about copying it that way....

Would it at all be possible to have the real thing printed over here and then distribute it within Europe ? With today's "on demand" printing of books you'd say it should be possible. Not sure how big the market would be here of course.

Maybe it's a nice suggestion to have an article about Euro cabs ? :D
