    Description:
    Welcome to my next aesthetic map, Arcade. After creating and posting my previous aesthetics maps (Condo, Restoranf, and Bank) I felt it was time to to step it up. Actually it didn't take me too long to think of an Idea. I started working on a bowling alley (feel free to take the idea) and I was creating the a couple games inside the bowling alley. But I liked them so much I just went with the Arcade idea.

    Anyways, the map is in the shape of a square-ish rectangle. It has a front door and ceiling trim and a base-board trim all the way around the room. The Arcade has nine machines it also has two token machines. Please don't fail to notice the token slots at the base of every machine (except the "game-over machine"). Enjoy.

    Wow, you were in a rush to post this one. If it's ready, it's ready. Anyways, this is what I really wanted to see from you, I know you had some great ideas with the other maps but it felt like to me there was something more and I feel you nailed it with this one. Great work, I really can't wait to see what you come up with next.

    Edit: You posted it in the comp maps section? You might want to fix that.

    Beautiful, most definantly one of the best aesthetic maps I've seen to date. You found a new way to be creative with each and every machine, and you just left me astonished with your use of forge pieces on the screens.

    Also, you seem to have mistakingly set the canvas map to Anchor Nine.

    The Reach logo is INCREDIBLE!
    Not to mention the buttons on the pac man machine, and the dance dance squares.
    You deserve a pat on the back for this one.
    I passed out just from looking at this map!

    I... this is....
    I love you.
    But on a serious note, this map is very detailed, much like your others! I really have the feeling that I'm in an arcade whenever I load this up. Bravo, my good sir.

    The machines are amazing. This map feels like a real arcade not just a halo reach forge map. Great job keep up the good forging.

    That looks sweet, how the heck did you do the buttons on the Pacman machine?

    Its not the tip of the small antennas is it?

    how did you make all the small details?

    and so, it's official zathura's style is spreading,
    i was going to make something like this but it wouldn't have been half as good
    i like how accurate all of the games are and it looks really good, it just needs an arcade feel, add some lighting and colored objects to make it look really neon, it's a very creative and detailed idea and it's purely inspirational, i guess forge is gonna have more expectations now.... i would never have the patience to do anything like this, great job man.
    i guess forge world is in a new generation now

    Thanks man, Actually I do have some effect on, I can't remember which one though. I thought it was alright, because if you have anything like purple you just can't see anything.

    I wish you could have found some way of blocking in a Mongoose for the racing machine; while it wouldn't be the same aesthetically, it would allow you to actually get on the racing machine right and make at least that a little more realistic.

    Sorry about the delay with the post.The map has amzing aesthetics.Seeing you transform peices to unknown possitions to create machines as you hippsters say,was very "mind capturing".I cant wait to see whay else you have up your sleeves.
