Awesome. The 90's were the golden era for arcade games IMHO. The mid 90's were when I spent the most time in the arcades. I miss it a lot. |

The arcade was usually the only place to hang out (either that or the skating rink which also was heavily stocked with video games). What other period in time would songs about video games be played on the radio (ie Pacman Fever)? The eighties were the age of indulgence and excess. |

As I said, IMHO. Not much in the 80's caught my interest outside of a select few. That's why I said the 90's-the 16 bit era. To me that was the golden age. To each his own. :cheers: |

My only gripe about the 90's were that instead of the industry creating something unique, everyone had a tendency to jump on the bandwagon (ie fighters and shooting games). A game distinguished itself by it's unique concept and game play (ie dig dug, pacman, wizard of wor). But then again, I'm an old fart back when arcade games served the masses rather than the niche crowd. Though I confess that a good majority of my college years were spent at the college arcade playing fighters. |
