One thing I like about the front end that I use (GameEx) is the 'similar games' that it will list when you select a game. I've found lots of new favorites that way. Also has lists built in for games by type, manufacturer and year. |

It gets overlooked a lot due to the fact that its one of the \"newer\" versions of this type of game. I believe it was only released in Japan, but I stumbled on it a few years back and love it. --- End quote --- Just tried it out, its bloody nuts! debating weather thats harder than ghost pilots |

It's a 2 x 2 top-down game like Hat Trick but with a bigger playing field and added difficulty of controlling a soccer ball. Don't forget to throw punches on defense! http://maws.mameworld.info/maws/romset/powrplay 1000 Miglia: Great 1000 Miles Rally is a fun joystick driving game. There are a few others in this genre that I don't enjoy nearly as much. http://maws.mameworld.info/maws/romset/gtmra Another good one is Desert War, a vertical flying shooter with the added twist of needing to land to rescue POWs. http://maws.mameworld.info/maws/romset/desertwr Also, +1 on Cameltry. It's a must try if you have a spinner (should work with trackball too?) http://maws.mameworld.info/maws/romset/cameltry Could Journey be the most ridiculous arcade game ever? It's actually pretty challenging and fun. Pump a few dollars worth of quarters into this one before giving up on it. ;) http://maws.mameworld.info/maws/romset/journey |

I could list hundreds but I recommend trying BLAZING STAR and ESCAPE FROM THE PLANET OF THE ROBOT MONSTERS (AKA the only two games I made themes for in Hyperspin). Also found a little game called Peggle (not to be confused with the PopCap game) that's slightly annoying in the sound-effect department but amusing enough for at least a look. |
