Title: 1942 Post by: Oz on August 05, 2008, 06:42:25 AM I just picked up this from PSN. if you liked the original this one feels pretty damned close. plus its fun to shoot down planes, and tanks, and automobiles in HD. It is a tad short, but its more about overcoming the challenge then about beating the game.

This is like my favorite cabinet game, ever. Work cannot end soon enough today. Title: Re: 1942 Post by: schild on August 05, 2008, 10:24:33 AM This is like my favorite cabinet game, ever. Really? Interesting. Title: Re: 1942 Post by: Ingmar on August 05, 2008, 10:30:44 AM This is like my favorite cabinet game, ever. Really? Interesting. Well, keep in mind that I stopped playing them long long ago. I'm sure all sorts of shiny awesome things came out after I stopped playing arcade games back in the Renaissance. Title: Re: 1942 Post by: Stormwaltz on August 05, 2008, 07:00:42 PM It's up there for me, but not as high as Galaga, Time Pilot, and Rampage.
I think I stopped going to arcades around 1992. Title: Re: 1942 Post by: Ingmar on August 06, 2008, 10:35:42 AM It's up there for me, but not as high as Galaga, Time Pilot, and Rampage. I think I stopped going to arcades around 1992. Does this mean we'll get a Galaga minigame in Dragon Age? :grin: Title: Re: 1942 Post by: Oz on August 07, 2008, 06:15:46 AM I would kill for an HD remake of galaga.
edit: i also picked up Wolf of the Battlefield: Commando 3. Not too shabby if you like the commando games. Title: Re: 1942 Post by: MisterNoisy on August 07, 2008, 08:29:12 AM I would kill for an HD remake of galaga. Sort of on the way: Galaga Legions (http://www.xbox.com/en-US/games/g/galagalegionsxboxlivearcade/) Title: Re: 1942 Post by: Bokonon on August 08, 2008, 02:35:30 PM It's up there for me, but not as high as Galaga, Time Pilot, and Rampage. I think I stopped going to arcades around 1992. You are my hero. I owned a Time Pilot cabinet 7-8 years ago. The game lasted 1 year before it went kaput. (I'd swap out Galaga for Gauntlet, but the others are dead on). Title: Re: 1942 Post by: Ingmar on August 09, 2008, 02:53:42 AM I hated Gauntlet as a kid, the constantly declining health seemed like an obvious quarter farming scheme.

"Warrior is about to die" "MOM I NEED MORE QUARTERS!!" Good memories. I miss mom. Title: Re: 1942 Post by: schild on August 09, 2008, 02:20:52 PM RED GIANT NEEDS FOOD BADLY.
I still say that all the time. But that's from Gauntlet legends. Title: Re: 1942 Post by: Bokonon on August 09, 2008, 02:34:12 PM I hated Gauntlet as a kid, the constantly declining health seemed like an obvious quarter farming scheme. Oh, absolutely. But the narrator was awesome. Dungeon Explorers and SmashTV did the sub-sub-subgenre better, but Gauntlet was the first |
