Title: Best games for the armageddon
Post by: Donkbaca on May 20, 2011, 12:49:08 pm: So the end of the world is tomorrow, what should I be playing tonight on my cab that will give me the skills necessary to survive the apocalypse?

Arcade games only please.

I am thinking x-men, because apovalypse is in it....anything else?

Ready... go!

I think Salary Man Knitarou is a good one....

Well, I personally think I'll play the Real Ghostbusters. Those guys saved us from the Apocalypse a number of times now.

Those shadows guys scared the bejeebus out of me.
They pop out and are all like, "UhhhhHHHHHHHHHHHH!"
Harrowing.

I hope the end is NOTHING like Ghosts & Goblins. Not anybody will make it if it is. I'm stockpiling my heart shaped underoos just in case.

I'm not sure if I want to get up before 10 tomorrow, even if it is to play one last round of Tempest.

It already happened. We were left behind :cry:

;D

That's interesting. I woke up this morning (it is now eight something AM) and my wife is gone. So it looks like the kids and I were left behind.

I get why I was left behind but the kids? And my wife?!

Oh well, guess I might as well go and loot some houses.

Wait... where the hell are the Zombies?! If I was going to get left behind, I was really looking forward to "killing" a few Zombies... And my Aliens?! Damn it!

I think May 21st stands to show that the crazies are still out there. Be careful people!

Post by: wonderalex on May 21, 2011, 02:49:23 pm: Hmm - happens to be my birthday. Well sucks to be me I guess. ;)

I'd fire up Diablo personally - but a classic arcade game? Hmm - Missile Command or Defender.

Be seeing you,
