I usually play at Cybertown at Firewheel Town Center in Garland. That used to be a pretty hot spot but now there's only a few of us regulars who still go there, and a whole shit load of n00bs... ugh. I've tried checking out a few other locations that I know of but not much luck. There's Adventure Landing in Dallas, on Coit Rd near the Bush Turnpike, I guess some regs used to go there cuz I saw some pretty good times, but everytime I've gone the place is dead. Gameworks Grapevine has turned to shit. I've gone a few times before and have been pretty impressed, but today I went and the machine was sooo busted. Left side was unplayable, the brake kept engaging. Right side was workable but with a pretty screwed wheel, like when you turn the wheel a little it's hella tough to hold it steady. I brought all this to the attention of the techs, one guy took a look at it and saw the same things I saw, so hopefully they'll work on fixing it. I also know of machines at Putt-Putt by The Parks Mall, and at Main Event Fort Worth, but that's pretty far to drive. I'd drop by for sure though if I knew there would be people racing it up. So that's my question for you folks, where y'all at? Maybe waiting for the Gameworks machine to get fixed? Cuz I know there used to be a crowd there. Or some other location I don't know about? Maybe you guys could drop by Cybertown, that machine is in pretty prime condition. Or Adventure Landing? They take pretty good care of their stuff too. Post up! |

The card reader is broken on the right side, wheels are getting worse, and I hear the machines aren't ever gonna get fixed. Instead they're gonna sell the machines maybe this month. Sure ID4 is on the horizon, but that's gonna be February at the earliest if they get Japanese machines. Gameworks, on the otherhand, has fixed their machines, and today they were in the best condition I've ever seen them in. I'll be going there more regularly now, especially Saturday afternoons and evenings. I'll probably go there next week, so if anyone wants to race or just chill, hit me up or just show up. =) |

I've been going there regularly lately, mainly Saturday afternoons and nights. The machine's in good shape, got a bit of a crowd of regulars there, it's pretty kickass! It's mainly been time attacking, but maybe if a few more people show up, we can get some battles going! ... okay I'm getting a little tired of talking to the wind here. I seem to be the only person from DFW on this forum, but I'm sure there're some lurkers out there, right? |

Request Title - PM Mods Group: Members Posts: 377 Member No.: 5,336 Joined: Feb 1st 2005 Location: Irving, TX | Update on current status. Cybertown: looks like Jacky is gone. Dunno if he quit or if he got fired, but apparently they weren't happy with him. From what I understand, they're now having the San Antonio tech come up here like once a week. Both card readers work now, and they were going to work on the pedal and wheel problems this weekend. So hopefully these machines will be fixed up good. Also, Matt tells me they're going to import ID4 and have it here in March, also Wangan 3. This may become the hot spot again. Gameworks: machine went downhill kinda bad. Problems with pedals on one side, problems with the wheel on other. I talked to the tech though, and they had already ordered the parts for the wheel. Sounds like the machine should be fixed up soon. I haven't heard anything about them getting ID4, but they know ID is popular, plus Gameworks is owned by Sega so... I would think they'd get it. Adventure Landing still seems pretty dead, which is weird to me considering the machine is still in great shape. I did notice a new name though, "ALEX" driving an Evo4. He has some pretty good times. Also saw his name up at Gameworks. I'd go to this place more often but no one else is ever there, and I'm tired of time attacking. Alright you lurkers, post the hell up. It's been too damn long since I've had a good battle, and I'm tired of having battle level 31. Who wants to RACE?! |

I usually go there Fridays and Saturdays, with the occasional Thursday night thrown in. Definitely thinking of hitting it up next Thursday night, since it's spring break and all. |

Request Title - PM Mods Group: Members Posts: 377 Member No.: 5,336 Joined: Feb 1st 2005 Location: Irving, TX | I dunno. We did the same thing last year though and there was a pretty decent turnout. I'll try to spread the word around the east Dallas/Garland/Mesquite players. This post has been edited by Ke6dRt on Mar 4 2007, 04:22 PM |

yo mama Group: Advanced Members Posts: 1,883 Member No.: 19,246 Joined: Jul 30th 2006 Location: Texas | >.> I think most of the regular ID players go on thursdays and at half price hours. I have pretty much quit though cause the machines were always worked over good, even after getting fixed. and I know why, it's because there are some people that lose a race or whatever and get mad and start slamming their fists on the wheel and the screen and stomping on the pedals. it's stupid and scary to say the least when you see people like that. The WMMT machines are usually in pretty good shape though so I have switched over to playing that. I still have my cards for IDAS but just find that WMMT is a bit more fun and generally the people playing aren't total psycho. I've run into quite a few psychos when playing IDAS up there. But the WMMT players usually seem a bit more relaxed and don't go nuts on the machine if they lose. |

yo mama Group: Advanced Members Posts: 1,883 Member No.: 19,246 Joined: Jul 30th 2006 Location: Texas | I saw a guy get pissed off for losing to Keisuke in story mode the first time you race him on akagi there. I was like WTF YO.. and always I see alot of really shady looking people playing on IDAS. and it's never just one or two guys. it's always like 4-5 guys and only like 1 guy is playing and the others are just like hanging around him because apparently they all have to stay at the same game even though there are other games right next to it.. I just don't like going into a group of people like that when they are acting shady or freaking out. I've never had that problem with WMMT and the WMMT machines are always in good shape when I go. I have only once had a problem on the WMMT machines and it was that the steering was slightly to the right so I had to hold the wheel to the left just a tiny bit throughout the races or else the car would just make a long slow turn to the right. it did slow me down but I wasn't too worried about it. |

Request Title - PM Mods Group: Members Posts: 377 Member No.: 5,336 Joined: Feb 1st 2005 Location: Irving, TX | Not sure if I'm going this Thursday or next. I think most people are having spring break next week, so I'm thinking of going next week instead since there'll probably be a better turnout. Hope you guys are gonna be ready to RACE! |

Request Title - PM Mods Group: Members Posts: 377 Member No.: 5,336 Joined: Feb 1st 2005 Location: Irving, TX | Yup I was there during spring break. I was splitting my time between Initial D and DDR, with a smattering of Indy 500. You may remember me as the one using a S14K that day. I'll be there tomorrow, and a few other Initial D vets may be there as well. It may be pretty kickass. Oh yeah, and the Sil80 will be in action tomorrow. Come on out y'all! |
