This doesn't really fit into either PC or Console gaming but there's more activity in here so...

What are your absolute all time favourite arcade games?

Soulja · 17 Dec 2007 at 15:29

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles & The Simpsons

My number one is Daytona USA, I simply cannot walk past a Daytona cabinet without blowing all the cash i have on it. Its horribly dated but still so much fun to play and i still get a kick out of using manual gears to initiate the perfect slide

.

Final Fight, Captain Commando, Operation Wolf/Thunderbolt, Blood Brothers will all usually have me hooked for a while if i spot one.

Sega Rally, Street Fighters and have also spent a small fortune on Robocop and Ghouls 'n' Ghosts over the years too.

I played a game on holiday when I was 11 which I was addicted to but I have no idea what it was called. It was variation of pong, kinda like dodgeball except you had to dive from left to right and stop the ball(?) from getting past you. The quicker you collected the ball and quicker you threw it back the more chance you had of getting it past your opponent.

That and Virtua Tennis

Aye I think that was it, looks very familiar! I thought I remembered being at the bottom of the screen with the opponent at the top, but obviously not.

Cracking game anyway
