I listen to Czaban every morning on Fox Sports on the way into work, and he mentioned he had a "Gargantugame" in his basement. Curious as to what it was, I decided to look it up.

Anyone ever seen one of these things before? What a beast...

You too can have one for the low price of $3790.

It does look like a bit of a beast but it's got nothing on a showcase cabinet with 32" monitor ;)
 
I don't get it. It's just a regular mame machine, every mame machine is like that. I don't get why they're acting like his is greater and larger or whatever.
 
I have something very similar but it's called an Arcade-in-a-Box, they don't make them anymore. It is MAME basically, and It really isn't like playing on the real thing and I can honestly say i never play it and was dissapointed with it. Here is a picture of mine before the T-molding was added.

Didn't you hear? That guy invented it. Like Al Gore invented the Internets. He, too (that guy), deserves a Nobel Prize. ;)

Its Fox Sports. They're not too bright. ;)

I bet he wrote the MAME code too. Hell... he probably wrote the damn operating system.

The fact that he hasn't won the Nobel prize is a freaking travesty.
 
Oh, crap. When I saw the title, I thought it was going to be this thing:

What a let-down, for sure. :(

Whoever took this picture must have been a pervert, huh guys? ;)
 
It was Call of Duty that's for sure. Who the hell would want to awkwardly play Call of Duty on an arcade cab though? Sure it can play all the latest games but with such a set-up it's just a waste in my opinion. I would rather hook a 360 controller up to the PC and play that way.

Shooters like WAR: Final Assault are pushing it for arcade use.
