I've been to many arcades in Los Angeles and Las Vegas. Gameworks is fine, for an hour or so. Not much more. It's dark and sorta not so clean feeling inside. Not too many places for parents to sit, be comfortable and let their kids run around and spend their Vegas gambling money. GameWorks might get more visitors if they made it more parent-friendly--they've got enough game selections, but after all the casino walking--I'd gladly plunk down $50 to let my kid run amok here--but, where the heck do I sit? The restaurant is a 'gotta be starving or else"" kind of selection. The only reason I'll trek down into the dark cavern is the Nascar life size cars, which sometimes the game isn't even manned for 30 minutes or more at at time. I believe you can still find giant Nascar racing over at the Luxor Hotel arcade too.
Pros: can't think of any really
Cons: dark, not very clean, no sofas or comfortable chairs for weary parents
