I think that Donkey Kong is the best game ever.

Other than that, the new Gundam games with the giant pods that you sit inside are pretty cool. They link up to other pods in the game centre, and even to other arcades. You can just be a spectator and watch the action on a screen outside the pods as well.

The Time Crisis series is also a fun light-gun game. They're up to 4 now. I also like arcade Mario Kart! The Namco one with Pac-man. The sequel is out here.

I'm always loyal to House of the Dead (the first one) and after that is Area 51. Site 4 is alright, but the original is better. And of course, DDR.

1942, or was it 1941.

That is the game that got me hooked on video games.

Wow that gundam game sounds cool I wish we had it, I really liked donkey kong country but donkey kong not so much.

I saw House of the Dead 4 in one of my local arcades haven't had a chance to play it yet though, hear it's really good.

House of the Dead 4 is better than the third installment by far. You go from shotgun to machine gun Still love the first the most. Maybe cause I know how to play it.

Gauntlet.

A local arcade offered a 4 hour unlimited play session on Saturdays when I was a kid. Me and 3 of my buddies would spend the entire time every weekend playing through Gauntlet.

Now I have to play it, 1 was pretty cool and unique for it's time. I don't know FlaymSior I kinda liked 3 (must have been the shotgun?) but it got old fast 2 had a lot more variety, so I played it alot I must play 4 soon.

I wasn't that impressed with Time Crisis 4... seemed kinda lame? But it's okay I guess.

Yeah Odwin 4 player co op can't be beat I wish more modern games had that in mind.

I don't remember 2 much. For 3, yeah, the shotguns killed it for me.

Space Invaders, that one racin game with the steering wheel and when you hit a sign the car would flip
