      Look, I know you think the world of me, that's understandable, you're only human, but it's not nice to call somebody "Vain"!

        Joust and Elevator Action were my personal favourites.

            Oh my god....this post brings back so many memories. I was a video game FREAK when I was a kid. Any oppotunity I had was to find an arcade and play video games. I woudl work for this guy on Saturday mornings for the local arcade chain from 7am to 10am counting the tokens for each machine. At 10am when the aracde would open, my payment was a key to all of the machines I would play for hours and hours. There is no way I could narrow down to one favorite. To name a few....

            Donky Kong Jr.
            Pole Position
            Star Wars
            Dragon's Lair
            Space Ace
            Track & Field(and Hyper Sports <--this was part 2)
            Punch Out
            Joust
            Defender

            I could go on and on....

                  Galaxian then Star Wars then Galaga. I got so good at Galaga I could do a full run of all the boards with a near perfect score (got all bonuses and lost no ships).

                                Last time I played an arcade...yesterday evening, Virtua Fighter 4.
                                Sat on a pile of deads, I enjoy my oysters.
