what's the best arcade game?

best arcade game is chiller, if any of you loved the classic gaming from the early 90's and late 80's then look this thing up, it's sickening and amazing

So did I. But back then, arcade graphics and gameplay kicked the crap outta home consoles.

I had an NES. I didn't really play arcade games.

just checking out the playstation store today and guess what I found....

tmnt: turtles in time re-shelled

same game with new graphics and a 3d engine (so you can attack at an angle), and nothing else. downloaded it, played through the first level (twice), and recognized everything. they even got the foot soldier colors right. very happy.

sorry for the derailing. just excited.

TMNT
X-Men
Darkstalkers (actually all the Capcom Fighters)
Soul Blade (now known as Soul Calibur)
MK 2
Star Wars arcade (ALL HAIL THE HOTH LVL)
House of the Dead

T2 the arcade game!!!!! SWEET!!!!

Lethal enforcers!!!

Area 51

I loved the light gun games

I loved hanging out in arcades back in the day. Here in colorado we have this place called NIckle-a-play. Classic Arcade games that are free (you pay 3.50 for entrance). They have some cool games, but my favorite cool old school games are:

X-men
TMNT the arcade game
MORTAL KOMBAT II
Captain America and the Avengers
Donkey Kong
Pac-Man
The Simpsons
Marvel Vs. Capcom
the Time Crisis Series
Street Fighter II Turbo
Star Wars the Arcade Game

(sigh) I miss arcades.

lol when I saw this again a minute ago, I remembered a story that my Dad told me. When he was maybe 20-ish, a person in the neighborhood had some arcade machines in their base ment. They'd let the kids come and pay to play these games. When the kids got older, the owner of these games, gave all these kids their money back... It payed for them to go on missions (church missionaries) lol I thought I'd share that because... really because I'm bored... and tired

my liost is long and consist of a lot of things already listed so Ill just say something I haven't seen on here yet that I love
