Call me Crazy but I sort of miss the arcades. With Consoles, computers and emulators you really need no need to ever go unless you wanna nerd it out on DDR, which some fat guy or asian kid will always be hogging it. Serious that game is not that good, Guitar Hero is way better! Now moving on, as I was saying I sort of miss that sense of playing tekken 3 in the arcade. Saying to myself ” awwww yes! I’m the man!” This was at a time when Tekken 3 was my king of fighting games, still is a top for me on fighting games. I always used Eddy Gordo, the break dancer fighter oh yeah he kicked ass! Just he was no Law.

                               As you can see DDR needs to go! Bring in GH!!

                             

 Now what do I miss of the arcades well destroying fools in the arcade. I may have wasted alot of quarters in my life, but after all the quarters, you stop using less. I recall a time when I got so good at Tekken 3 all I needed was a buck for arcade money. Spend a good two hours taking on challengers. Now my skills are not what they use to be. Other then Tekken I played arcade classics, simpsons game, X-Men arcade game and my personal favorite metal slug 2. Neo Geo machines ruled arcades, that was the best part for me. Neo Geo Machines always would have at least 4 games on one machine. So If you didn’t wanna play Metal Slug then play samurai showdown. Which was this awesome 2d fighing game, or king of fighters 94, or 97, either KoF game is a good choice.

                                                           Oh Neo Geo I miss you!

                                                

  Now what it’s all Halo, or any shooter who dares call themselves the Halo killer. I also play some RTS games it’s not all guns, but I had some good memories in arcades. Arcades will sure be extinct, I can never seeing them lasting. I can actually see myself 20 years from now saying to my kids, “Back in my day we had arcades.” kids will look up in confusion as they will say “whats an arcade?” Yeah  so well as consoles are great I’m sure you all have some epic memories of the times at the arcades. Well until then this is Shawn out. Take care everyone and have a happy Memorial Day!!

                                                  He’d be the best roomate ever!!!
