That takes the cake. Best cockpit ever. Even cooler than the frex systems.
Wow!!!!
 
Lol, I was getting ready to call you a spammer until I the video finally showed the cockpit. I to give it to the guy that's a pretty cool setup and it's not in the way when he's playing other video games. Love the carbon fiber upgrades too :)
 
Honestly I prefer a more simple setup. To me that's just over kill.

There is no such thing as overkill when making your cockpit.
You have to admit, his setup makes you green with envy. I would love the whole setup he has. The only thing stopping me is the time it would take, and the know how. I wouldn't even know where to begin.

Well everyone has there own opinion. I'm being dead serious though. It honestly does not make me green with envy at all. I would much rather have a much more simple setup than that. I just think that's taking it way too far.
 
How do you not know it's just a 2 seeter movie theater. Nevermind I hadn't watched it all. It would be bad if you couldn't see over the top of the steering wheel. I think that person stole it out of an airplane! How much does that cost??? It's awesome!!!
 
Meh that cockpit overdoes it plus it looks nothing like a real cars interior..

This looks so much better.. its "wtf im nameless'" cockpit from here on the forum! :) They way you feel enclosed with full controls and a dash makes it so cool... Lots of work must have gone into it.

Very Nice set-up! He must have some cash... I like the Battlefield 2 Helo scenes as well. BF2 for the PC is the best war game ever!!!

Seems like it's too low though. It's in the floor and the screen is quite high up.

wtf im nameless definitely has the better setup.

Plus i'd be paranoid of it malfunctioning and closing while i'm in it!

I do think the ultimate cockpits are the ones that uses a cars dash (or entire car cockpit) and have all the gauges working.
 
Yeah, I'd much rather have a simpler cockpit as well.

Give me a playseat, G25, GT5, and an LCD TV, and I'm good. 5.1 Dolby would be a plus, though. 👍
 
I cannot believe the people here saying they'd like a more simple cockpit. I wish I could do something like this just for the sake of space. I don't want a car in my living room/game room. I don't want a playseat to take up space, or fold up or whatever. this is genius if it can be afforded. no question. I've seen pictures on this site of guys with a set up next to their bed or in the middle of the living room.

I have to agree with you on that. I love seeing cockpits with working gauges but I still think this guy's cockpit is pretty bada55. Much better than the ones with just a playseat and steering wheel.

+1 you'd get a sore neck after 20mins with that angle.

Yep, I agree. Sat in hole in the floor looking up about 6 feet above the natural line of vision forward is hardly realistic. But the main thing is that he is happy with it. And you have to admire the slickness of the work.

Personally, I find my Lotus G25-based cockpit with a 37" LCD in direct line of vision offers a good simulation – but I don't have to hide mine in the floor.

(Only trouble is, my Lotus is lhd and in GT5 Prologue, as it is a british car, it is only rhd. In the full GT5 game I hope they will do both versions for all cars – it wouldn't take much more data to do that.)
 
that thing is totally a novelty setup. cool nonetheless. doesnt compare to the Frex canopy screen. I would rather have a Frex wheel and pedals on a table rather than G25 with a bunch of work. And why wasnt it finished nice? looked like cheap carpet lol
