Arcade or Console Man
I grew up in the early 1990's, and as such Arcade gaming was the king. With great graphic games such as Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat and SNK's back library, it was the only place to play games.
Now a lot of arcades in the UK have become places for casino style fruit machines, and console gaming's the way to go, but I miss the social aspect of arcade games. Which do you prefer, console or arcade games, and why? |

RE: Arcade or Console Man
Well I've mainly been a console person from the start, but when I was growing up I always liked to give the arcade machines a go, especially when I was very young. The experience felt more "real" when the game was played in the arcade machine rather than at home. And this still holds true for light gun and fighting games. It's not the same playing Street Fighter or Tekken with that lame controller versus the arcade stick and all those buttons :)

RE: Arcade or Console Man
Quite right mate! I can't stand playing them on controllers (I've got Street Fighter 2 for the Wii Virtual Console, and the classic controller is terrible). I bought a arcade joystick to play my many fighting games I bought for it!
I love driving games, and games ahve gotten better for the arcade. Anybody played Afterburner Climax? You have to strap yourself in to play it. |
