We've been doing a lot of Top 100 lists and such lately, just wondering if instead, we discuss what ONE game you can't live without?

For me it's Marvel Super Heroes... no matter what MAME version I'm running (and as I've been tweaking my cab I've installed several different versions and reinstalled OSes etc. several times)... this is the one game I always load on first.  Can't say why other than it rocks for us comic book buffs.  Unlimited quarters has never been so much fun!

Joystick Jerk:
MSH is probably my favourite fighter. There's just something so perfect about the moves and combos, and all the characters are a blast to play. It's complex enough to keep you interested, but doesn't burden you with the crazy amount of options found in later fighters.

Beyond that, I always try to keep the Metal Slug games on hand. Maybe a couple of beat-em-ups as well like AvP or Final Fight. And if I'm in the mood, perhaps a shmup or two... maybe Dodonpachi.

Thenasty:
Even though I like alot of the 80's games (pacman,Ms.Pac,Jr.Pac,Galaga,Galaxian,Space Invaders etc....) I somehow always launch Asteriods. Maybe its the only game that I rolled over the score and the only game that I set the hi-score to the max  (999990) before rolling it over to zero and start over.

vidmouse:
I seem to have a little trouble with my system and running Asteroids
at full speed... seems like it always runs a little slow.  I'm using
Mame 0.53b on a PII 300MHZ system, 512MB ram, 32 MB video card
with all the default ini's more-or-less...

Asteroids Deluxe seems like it works ok at full speed.
MSH works ok at what I would call full speed.

Any ideas?

Thenasty:
set the sound from 44100 to 22050 or 11025. I have mine set to 22050.
