If you’ve got a penchant for racing games, hanging around E3, hoping for a scrap of GT5 news, isn’t the place to be right now. Instead, you’ll want to grab yourself a flight to Lyons, France where you’ll find the I-WAY… arcade? It’s actually kind of hard to describe the place, which took 4 years to design and build, since it houses a spa, conference rooms, restaurants, lounges and even office space. But the real attraction of course is the 18 6-axis simulators featuring full-sized versions of Formula 1, rally/touring and endurance race cars.

To me it looks like a Chuck E. Cheese for anyone over 21, and since single races start at around $73 (€60) and racing packages run as expensive as $770 (€630) for 10 races, you can rest assured the place won’t be swarming with kids with pockets full of quarters.
