caveman Posted September 1, 2004 Share Posted September 1, 2004 It was NARC, until I beat it. Then it was NARC again- this time is was over getting it to run correctly on my emulator. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Radio F Software Posted September 3, 2004 Share Posted September 3, 2004 The Irritating Maze. Yes. It IS named that. It is indeed irritating. You use a track ball to get a spinning rod thru an ever changing series of winding roads WITHOUT touching ANYTHING. Very hard. Very irritating.

Cobra Commander Posted September 5, 2004 Share Posted September 5, 2004 SMASH TV! to fast to get mad, but when I'd get done I'd be sweating have blisters in between my knuckles from the dual joysticks, and I'd have to go outside and have a smoke and let my heart slow down.

Pixellated Ghost Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 Astro Invaders. Many years ago I got really frustrated playing this one, and kicked its coin door, hard. The screen went black. No one saw me do this, and needless to say I high tailed it out of there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stella+KDE Posted October 5, 2004 Share Posted October 5, 2004 robotron 2084,battle zone,stun runner and last but not least star wars all of which would make me just a little unhappy but i kept going back week after week for more punishment from the no-armed bandits. Ahh those where fun times, i wish "real" arcades would come back in style where you played for a .25 and not .50 to 1.50 a game !

uosipa llamxew Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Those f-ing crane games! Just give me the friggen stuffed animal!! LMAO!!! When I was in 9th grade, the arcades were full of crappy Street Fighter clones. They changed almost weekly, and it was rare to find any worth playing. During this time, my friend and I must've put several hundred dollars into the crane games. We won a lot of those stuffed animals, watches, and odd toys. Overall, for the price we paid, we might have had several of those massive overpriced stuffed animals you see in the disney store, decent watches, and money to spare! We never mastered the crane; I'm convinced that about 99% of them are rigged for the claw to open before the crane pulls up! :-P To this day, I have trouble resisting The Crane!

dgo Posted October 6, 2004 Share Posted October 6, 2004 Galaxian and Contra...I suck at those games... Weird though...im good at Galaga Same here... My Galaga scores are around 1.5M, but I hardly ever made it past level four in Galaxian. But then again, I never had the drive to really learn because I find it too boring.... And maybe it's just one of those things: Atari or Amiga Windows or Mac Galaga or Galaxian Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
