-> Hmm... okay... has anyone here played Metal Slug? This is the first

-> it is genuinely entertainin'. =)

-> How 'bout simulation racin' games? I would say my favorites would be

I loved metal slug. It was very reminescent of the good old days. Good 
animation and meaty explosions. One of my favorite games is Time Crises. But 
I also hate it because it eats quarters. So I'm never playing that until they 
make it 2 to start and 1 to continue, rather than 3 for start and 3 for 
continue.
I played daytona recently. And this dude shoved me on the side so bad, I 
turned around and drove backwards the rest of the race, ensuring that he got 
last place...other than me.
Play Virual On/Cybertroopers. I know this is a cybersled like game but this 
game executes it perfectly. This is such a fun two player game and a nerve 
wrecking game...which is great.
I loved going to the arcades a few years back, make that 6 years back where 
there were big crowds around games. And playing them in front of that big 
crowd felt oh so good. I wanna go back to the old days! Today doesn't have 
that feel anymore...
