| What more could you possibly want in hard hitting arcade action? Forget Mortal Kombat and Grand Theft Auto, these are the games that separate the men from the boys... Galaga - As far as I know I am the world's Galaga champ. I cannot walk past an arcade machine no matter where I am or what I'm doing. I just know that as soon as I put that quarter into the machine, I know where I'll be spending the next hour and a half. This is an incredible game, perhaps the greatest ever made. Go for 40 on the challange stage every time or you'll never catch me. And always double up your ships every chance you get. Shoot the aliens while they are forming up. By the time they start coming down, you should only have two or three left. Dig Dug - The Holy Grail of 80's arcades. This is the game that predated Mr. Do, yet will never be forgotten. Always drop rocks, drop as many rocks as youcan. It makes the vegetables appear, you get tremendous points for kills, and they get you out of tight fixes. At the arcade when you see 999,999 on the Dig Dug machine, you know it was me. Pac-Man - Hail the highest grossing game of all time. Though Ms. Pac-Man was the best version, Pac Man will bring you hours of enjoyment everyday. When you get the chance, purchase or download the song 'Pac Man Fever'. You can play it at your next Pac-Man elimination party. Pole Position - I spent a fortune on this game as a kid at the Circle K. Now from the comfort of my own living room, and without bullies and hangers-on over my shoulder, I can run the gauntlet of this superior driving game. Go into low around those curves bud, and never ever tailgate. |
