Sunflower said:T2 the Arcade Game as a 12 year old was pretty much futuresex for me. I loved it, never got to play enough. Amazing game for a 12 year old who loved the future scene in the beginning of T2.
I must have spent close to 50 bucks with my little brother trying to beat T2 in the arcades. I remember he had to stand on one of those little booster seats just to see over the massive gun lol. Finally owned Skynet and then ate some pizza. Good times.Micius said:The one with the two mounted guns? Didn't get to play it a lot but it impressed the hell out of me back in the day. I think I was 11 or 12 too when I first played it. Loved it even though my aim was awful.

This fucking thing was at the pizza place near my house. Soooo good.

Every week for about 1 year when I was 13 or something.

Played through the whole thing with a friend. We died countless times and probably spent like $20 on it, but it was fantastic. Screaming at each other, "OH GOD IT HAS ME IN ITS MOUTH, SHOOT IT SHOOT IT MAKE IT DROP ME!!!"
Probably my least favorite arcade memory was when I went to try some Tekken game for the first time. I'm playing against the computer, kinda figuring out the controls and some special moves, beat the first two guys. Then some dude walks up, clearly good at the game since he brought his own fucking stick, plugs into my machine instead of either of the two next to us despite the fact that I am clearly just learning how to play, and proceeds to absolutely destroy me.
Like, really? Do you feel like you've accomplished something by beating an absolute scrub and making me feel like I've wasted my damn dollar?
