How Do You Talk About Old Arcade Games, Here?

[JohnCrichton]

Cuz I played through three this weekend and I'm exploding with excitement about it. Frickin Sunset Riders... hello! Am I the only one who remembers the glory of Sunset Riders???

Or Aliens vs Predator! A completely outstanding Capcom game that deserved sequels upon sequels, and these were all beyond fun!!!

Last thread I made about it got deleted..... how and in what way can one talk about this stuff?

The world must know.... the wonders I've seen....

[Bird Boy]

it..was deleted? Weird. As far as I knew, this board was all about GAMES...as in the description:

Save your game and enter the forum dedicated to all types of electronic entertainment. Whether its console, arcade, handheld, computer, or internet... discuss it here!

I dunno how or why it got deleted..but whatever, I'm 100% sure you can talk about arcade games..

Odd... now it's back. 0_o

I thought there might be a problem, cuz the incredible games I had the pleasure of playing were through the... "E-word" on my friend's Xbox.

Still.... Sunset Riders.. up to four players! I haven't had that kinda fun playing video games in I don't know how long!


EDIT: Feel free to combine this underneath the other thread.... it's all about the same stuff....

I have all those game you have mention on my computer....um why would you need a xbox :confused: All you need is a ....... :D
any way you should try Gi Joe, Simpsons, X-men4players, T2acrade and my fave Marvel vs capcom :cool:

[JohnCrichton]

My computer can't handle that kinda damage... plus there's just something about being able to play these games on a television set instead of a computer screen.

It's more fun when you're with friends sitting on a couch and have it connected to a living room surround sound system versus a computer on a desk.

Again, please combine this under the other Arcade thread!

There's nothing better than the TMNT 4 players arcade game. I once was offered it for $150 and it was rigged so I wouldn't have to put quarters in. But I couldn't find anyone with a truck, and it would have fit perfectly in my apartment. Oh well.

[JohnCrichton]

Nice!

You'd have been the coolest kid in the neighborhood if you got that!

I can name a few better games..That Simpsons 4 Player game and the..X-MEN 4 player game.

Now those were awesome. I always got killed pretty quick in the X-Men game but I remember beating the Turtles and simpsons games both quite a few times.

[JohnCrichton]

We're saving X-Men for later, and my friend already jammed out Simpsons.. we were in the mood for Turtles.

John also try Capt.America and Avengers 4players, Knights of the Round Table 3players and Spiderman the Avengers 4players, Lastly the Punisher 2players. :cool:

[JohnCrichton]

Avengers.... I'll make sure that's on the list. I never did get to beat that.

It's pretty surprising how incredibly short these games are once you're not being forced to put quarters in the game.

Or telling your partner, "Hold out! I'll be right back!" as you rush to get more quaters before time runs out and your friend gets crushed with no more continues!

Now with the simple press of a button on my controller, the game goes on like... forever. :D

Where do you get the arcade roms? Just wondering.

[Killtacular]

GAH! Don't talk about ROMs. That will get this thread closed swiftly.

[Bird Boy]

Indeed it will get closed swiftly--this thread was already heavy with the talk of ROMS, but it was finally mentioned. Don't want to be the pooper, but if you want to continue discussion on the ROMS, please take it up via PM.
