| - This Gameworks location is great and is far better than almost any other arcade style restaurant venue anywhere near the vicinity of the Las Vegas area. Of the comments by others that criticise this Gameworks, it is often that this location lacks some of the greatness of other or past Gameworks locations. While some of that I agree with, the comparison should be Gameworks now compared to their competitors now, not Gameworks compared to themselves of the past.
The dining areas, bar areas, bowling areas, arcade areas, and the console gaming areas all look great. The arcade prices generally are about four credits per game, which is one dollar with no promotions or bulk purchase of credits whatsoever. Most generic arcades in the major hotels would have similar pricing, yet Gameworks provides a much nicer, friendlier and healthier enviroment than going inside a Las Vegas hotel/casino. In addition, they have deals, 190 credits for $27, making that one-dollar game just 57 cents. The pricing is good; I do not see where some of these complaints come from. It is a far better value than Dave and Busters located throughout the country.
The Las Vegas design is different than many other Gameworks, but that is fine. I personally do not understand the space given to console internet computer gaming, but that may appeal to others. If that does not work out as expected, a great idea would be to expand the arcade space, which is what many arcade enthusiasts want to happen. Maybe put in a clever time tunnel entrance and have some great, nearly forgotten games from the 80s and 90s in there that nearly no one has anymore (possibly locate a game list from when the first Gameworks opened, and replicate some of it). If management wants an idea of games, I would be glad to submit some ideas, or go on killer list of videogames dot com for a blast from the past reminder of games that once existed. Possibly, add a few more classic cabinets to overflow and transition between sections, so the place is not quite so compartmentalized. All of this is not a complaint, just ideas to make this new Gameworks even better and enhance it with some classic nestalgia from Gameworks past.
In closing, Gameworks Las Vegas does not deserve an average rating less than four stars. Those who live in the area should enjoy what it has to offer instead of comparing it to absolute arcade perfection. Again, compare it to what little else is present in Las Vegas family fun, enjoy the games and the environment of fun that exists inside all Gameworks locations. I do want to also mention that in my opinion many other Gameworks, current and past, deteriorated over time. Please do not allow entropy to set in here, please keep the games well maintained and focus on customer service and Gameworks will do well.
