    Arcade

    Platform »

    Stand-alone machines specialized for individual games. Arcades began the game industry and peaked in popularity before home consoles took over the gaming public. Arcade games usually cost 25 cents, or 100 yen, per play. Known for the most cutting-edge technology of their time, arcades have the largest video game library, and greatest variety of control methods, of any platform.

    Favorite Arcade Games, GO!

    Hmm. I'd have to say that my favorite arcade games would include:

    • Soul Calibur II
    • Too many other fighting games to choose from.
    • Gauntlet
    • Zaxxon
    • Galaga
    • Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
    • F-Zero AX
    • Robotron 2084

    Strider was good, but my favorites has to be Killer Instinct and Mortal Kombat 2. Played those two a ton in the Arcade. Oh and this Terminator 2 game where you used a gun, that was pretty awesome in 2 player mode.

    Time Crisis and Time Crisis 2, especially. I played them enough that I could beat them by only "continuing" once.
