Local Arcades: Powersurge, Putting Edge and Family Fun Arcade

Here's some short info on some local arcades that I've checked out recently, consider it a precursor to more in depth coverage.

Powersurge
6081 Center Dr
Los Angeles, CA 90045
 (310) 410-2120

Might consider it the modern day arcade, it 's all current generation home consoles, excluding the PS3. The layout allows for a lot of room for jumping, dancing, punching using the kinect. Nice snack bar and it's right below a movie theater.

Putting Edge
6081 Center Dr
Los Angeles, CA 90045
(310) 348-9770

Mini-golf? Glow in the dark mini-golf? Yup, you can play mini-golf inside on a fun, but strange course, they also have a small, but fun arcade. Wear white and have a glow as the black lights get you! It's in the same mall as Powersurge, so it's near the movies too.

Family Fun Arcade

10363 Balboa Blvd
Granada Hills, CA 91344
(818) 360-0419

Mostly fighters and shooters here. They've got some driving games too. Well stocked snack area and you can rent current games to play on their home consoles.
