I downloaded "Game Room" for Xbox Live tonight and played about with it a bit. It's lousy. It feels unpolished and jerky, you can't actually walk around the gameroom with your avatar so it's really just a giant 3D menu, and their pricing for games is outrageous. $3 for an Atari 2600 game? Give me a fucking break! They made some bad choices in arcade games; Tempest and Crystal Castles never, ever play well with a joystick. The emulation felt off to me at times, both for Lunar Lander and Scramble, as if it was laggy. The vector games don't look good on-screen either. In general the whole thing looks blocky, perhaps there's no anti-aliasing, perhaps it's upscaled, or perhaps both. The avatars don't look right either. Their lighting feels too flat and they also look jaggy. I could go on and on...
This morning the lady in the leasing office asked if I knew what a good price for a Demolition Man pinball was because she has one to sell. So if anyone in the south bay wants one, I know where there's one available. I'm going to arrange with her to look it over and assess its condition. I've no idea where she got it.
