There is a guy trying to patent a flexible bowl screen with a projector for gameing, i watched a video of it about a year ago, but havent seen anything of it since (maybe even seen the link here?) Looks very much like this setup but for home use (and you thought a sit down cab took alot of room). Didnt know sombody had a coercial use fo it yet, looks very cool.

I saw a video of these gundam cabs a year ago or something via here I think. Yeah, looks neat. Bonus points to the first collector over here who acquires one.

I hear the US military are using those in a room full of teenage video game experts. The kids think they're playing a game called "Pakistani Border Patrol 2000". It's got REALLY realistic graphics.

It's got me itching to reinstall Mechwarrior 3 on my
cab when I get home... (yeah I know there's a "4"
but I never got 4).

I did it once before and it was fantastic... great
having a HUGE screen to play with my speakers
right up near my head for once, vs my normal desktop
setup.

I know Mechwarrior <> Gundam, to me the FEEL
is the same, if we're talking in-cockpit.

The Original Xbox version is pretty good too.
