Yars Revenge was fun on Atari.
Tempest was one of my favorite arcade games.
Joust was fun, too.
I think Defender and Galaga were my all time faves tho.
I have a standup in my man cave that has most of the classics on it. It's fun to get high or drunk and pretend I'm 12 again. I have it set to free play of course but I keep saying I'm gonna make it take quarters so I can get the full effect.

Joust was fun, too.

I only played that on PC.

EGGS!

I don't mean to brag..

But I did make it to "master level" on F - Zero.

I used to play Street Fighter while Dad waited for the pizza pie.

Fun times.

Life before the Sony PlayStation and X-Box.

Anyone remember playing Tron: Deadly discs, Demon Attack, or Advanced Dungeons and Dragons?

They were commonplace in malls in the early 80’s.

Pity, the pay phone lasted longer than standup arcade games.

I AM FANTASY!
I am the shadows in your mind ... The gateway to your fantasies...
I am your dreams made reality ... And, the lust in your eyes...

You might get a kick out of Armada by Earnest Cline. Lots of old video games referenced and other fun Easter eggs. The premise is that video games are used by the government as a means to train millions to use drones to fight an alien invasion. Cline wrote Ready Player One.

My favorite classic ones for gameplay were Elevator Action and Zoo Keeper.

Just bought the remake version of Attack From Mars pinball. Really well-built machine, and something guests can hammer on without fear of it breaking down.

Colecovision and Vectrex gaming systems in the early days. The Vectrex games came with little screens you had to put on the display, to ‘colorize’ the game.

During the 80s I left two fortunes, in quarters, in the bellies of arcade games.

I've got the new Tool album on and I just got stuck watching that play out over and over.

I think I need to go lie down.
