I doubt you'll be seeing one of these at your local arcade..
A team of researchers at the Max Planck institute have created what is supposed to be the most realistic F1 video game ever.

The "game" is actually a simulation of Ferrari's F12007, and uses a cockpit containing a seat, controls (with force feedback), a video projector, screen and speakers. This cockpit is mounted on the end of an industrial robot arm that has six axis of movement..
