Ah... Sweet Arcade nostalgia! - Logan Darklighter - 05-06-2007
This is probably only going to be truly appreciated by us old fogeys. If you went to High School in the early to mid 80s, like me, then the Arcade was possibly the heaviest draw on your free cash other than going to the movies. This guy has done a stunningly done tribute to those days.
Take the time to load the quicktime movie at the bottom that he's made. It's really like taking a walk through an arcade of the times. This is some truly cheesy goodness!

Ah, yes, I remember it well.
One line in the writeup reminded me of something I've been meaning to ask... Does anybody know of a Q*Bert game for any modern platform? (I'd really like to play that one again.)

Not just the 80s, but 1984.
o.O
O.o
-.-;
I was born in '84.
That's... really more than a bit disturbing, I think.
