Cruis'n USA is a popular driving game made by Midway (well, Nintendo technically). You can drive through areas of the USA in single scenes, or you can cruise the entire United States. The digitized images taken from actual places and the force feedback steering helped give Cruis'n USA a good deal of realism (for it's time).

I have two sitdown units that are linked so you can race against another person. You can actually link four of these cabinets, but that's a lot of floor space (though my friend Rick Schieve has a picture of his set up here).

Eventually it would be nice to get a set of Cruis'n World boardsets, since that boardset can be played in these cabinets as well.
