Youth N Asia 0 Report post Posted October 29, 2005 I went down to Gameworks the other night and realized how much I used to love the arcade. So what's everyone's favorites. Silent Scope. I suck badly at it, but I still love it. The Ambulance game...dunno the official title. But you start at the scene of an accident and have to rush the patiant to the hospital. And when you get bumped or crash it shows them rocking in the back. It's great. I just played this 6 person indy car racers that I fell in love with. 6 cars lined up and the cars move really well to go along with how you're doing on the track. Galaga...who doesn't love Galaga?

Guest Smues Report post Posted October 30, 2005 No love for Gauntlet Legends? I wasted close to $100 on that one summer (since the game so kindly tells you how many credits you've bought when you beat it). I also used to waste a lot of time on Toki and STUN runner.

devo 0 Report post Posted October 30, 2005 The constantly diminishing health in Gauntlet Legends really pissed me off. Game's pretty cool otherwise, made for a decent rental once it came to consoles. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChrisMWaters 0 Report post Posted October 30, 2005 For me, since I don't have much arcade experience... Mo-Cap Boxing. That game helped me cut weight for wrestling. Plus, I loved "kissing" the glove before the final punch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

AlaskanHero 0 Report post Posted October 30, 2005 X-Men (I remember helping to beat it with 5 strangers as each of the X-Men) TMNT Simpsons Wrestlefest Mo-Cap Boxing And my personal all time favorite game is Virtua On. Sitting there in the booth, using the dual joysticks to fuck other robots up was just too much fun. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ced 0 Report post Posted October 30, 2005 - I got some serious tennis elbow playing MoCap Boxing the first time I played it being oblivious to the fact that punching power has no impact in the game. Then I discovered the glove tap trick and all was good. - Can't believe I forgot the other Bemani games. DrumMania remains my favorite and I really wish a IIDX machine would appear in a more convienient position around my place. - Boon, the helicopter game you're referring to is Gunblade NY if I'm thinking of the correct game.
