    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.

    What would you say is the best Arcade period?

    Inferior? The linc is a shithole. Terribly designed. I will wait to see a game at ppl park, a more intimate and football like setting. Aladdin's castle was/is the best arcade, they used to have one here at the mall but it left many years ago. But I think they are still around.

    Okay I always disliked the Linc, it has a wind problem which is terrible for the late football season. but its a good stadium overall dude. i wish it was like a dome for the money the spent on it but o well.  
    its definitely a bigger and better stadium than the small one built for the Union.  but then again, 
    i think their new stadium is definitely better fit for them and probably better for the fans.  
     i dunno lol.  
     
     
    anyways, GO PHILLIES they just won!
