Whew..been a long time
I'm sorry it has been so long since I posted an update in here. Really, there isn't much more beyond the guide I already have up (other than there sure have been a lot of interested emails and questions of late). I'm currently trying to finish a second control pannel for the machine and trying to figure out how to hook in a gun control that will work for things like crossbow on a TV. ACT Labs has a very cool gun system for the PC, but it only works with VGA monitors, not NTSC or S-Video TV's (Damn, I wish I had paid the $$$ and gotten a 27" Princeton Graphics Arcadia HDTV monitor).. Additionally, Hagstrom Electronics now has a USB 36 key encoder with trackball support and also has a VERY cool Header board for the encoders (this will save a lot of you the complex soldering and small proto-board I had to make on my own) for only $15.

I have really been using my machine a lot, for M.A.M.E. play and for PC games (Motocross Madness 2 is just too fun on this 27" TV) not to mention using it as a dedicated server for all of our Counter-Strike, Tribes2, and Diablo2 LAN games.
