Hello guys! Today I have a race against my little sister on Dead Heat (sit down twin arcade machine by Namco) down at my local ten-pin bowling alley. Here we are racing on the "Chicago" track. I am racing a Ford Mustang (Red) and my sister races a Ford GT (Blue). It was a very fun race, that's for sure. It's also the very first time I manage to actually beat my sister on it too, despite playing one handed with manual transmission and it being a bad machine (steering calibration was all wrong and force feedback wasn't working)!!! I got so lucky today (I was out celebrating my 23rd birthday with the family, so maybe that had something to do with it. lol). I have played this many times prior to this and my sister has always beat me before, so this is the first time I actually won! :D

In terms of the game itself and my thoughts on it, I'd say it's decent. It's target audience seems to lean more towards casual gamers (it isn't something I would choose to play in single player). However in that respect it is a little better than the EU/US versions of Mario Kart Arcade GP DX and Cruis'n Blast, but certainly nowhere near as good as Sega's OutRun 2 SP or other Sega classics, or even some of the better Raw Thrills games. For £1.00 ($1.27) per player, I would say that it is "not bad". :)

P.S. I do apologize for any bad filming and/or gameplay as I was holding the camera in one hand and the wheel/shifter in the other. This was recorded with my Samsung Galaxy S6.
