Title: What software do you use?
Post by: SirPoonga on March 15, 2002, 01:19:45 pm
I'm thinking of other games to put in my arcae cabinet.  So far this is the list I've come up with:

Mame (go figure)
Mess
ProPinball
Micro$oft Pinball
Armagetron
NFL Blitz
PGA Championship 2000
Goldent Tee Golf 3D
Impact
New Frogger
New Centipede
Atari Classic  (Hmmm, like I got a pack of atari games or something)


I thought of this question as I am rewriting the AI for Armagetron.

Castle Wolf. is a lot of fun to play in my cabinet.  Put the kids to bed, turn off the lights, and grab a few beers.  
Great game.

(other than Mame)

Impact -all the roms
Modeler - all the roms
S11emu - all the roms
Killer Instinct
Killer Instinct 2
Golden Tee Golf -PC version
Mortal Kombat 4


NFL Blitz would be a cool one, I'll have to look into that...

Black and White is something I'm looking forward to.... once I have my trackball in a control panel...

I'm hopefully going to be the owner of an analog controller soon, so then I will proabaly bring on some flight games (Apache).

I was considering making a control panel with all keys on it and play EQ and DAoC... but thats just because my EYGO monitor is so much bigger.

flight sim games always work pretty well in an arcade cabinet....
as long as you have an analoge stick that is

mortal kombat 4 is great too

oh any virtual fighter cdrom or any of the cinematronics games (either mpeg rips or for those who aren't working yet the cdrom versions) work good

i've tried black and white too, but realized it's kind of too slow paced to play on an arcade cab.  

your favortie flavor of quake/doom is good to

also those atari re-makes are really good, like pong, frogger, ect... iv'e heard the new pacland 2 is gonna be ported to pc as well

Mame (3256 games... yes I own all the boards)
Playstation w/some cool games including Frogger
Coming Soon:  Microsoft Pinball, Pro Pinball (w/pin buttons on side of cab)
Coming Soon:  Golden Tee PC
Coming Soon:  Dreamcast (TONS of arcade game ports, as good an arcade system as Mame IMO)

I have a 19" monitor with a nice desktop system so I see no point in playing PC games on my cab unless they are arcade ports or arcade-like.

I would play flight/space sims on it but I'm saving those and racing games for my future custom built cockpit.

Hmmm, black and white with a trackball, that would take getting use too.  I love the idea of black and white, but the game was dissapointing for me.
It works best and fastest using a graphics tablet.  You can do gestures quickly and naturally.

What's a good analogue stick to use with those?
