Found the video... that's not the same Vertigo I played.
(I wished I had owned a camera when I was a kid)
I've played Vertigo at Bally's Great Escape in Lakewood; the one I played was in a full motion cabinet (btw... this is before Galaxy Force II).
I was talking to Gene at Vintage Arcade about it a couple months ago, and he remembers seeing the version I played at a tradeshow one year.
I wish I could describe it better, but the only thing I can remember is the cool cabinet, and it was vector. And that it was awesome, and I was sad when I went in one day and it was gone.
RELAX and just have fun. Remember, it's all about the games.
