a tribute to arcade games of the 1990's Part IFXIIJ#




before the Republican led congress of 1994 demanded their removal from the American landscape, this land of ours was home to vast houses of wonderment called "arcades". Their Gingrich led destruction is sad because truly there is no better video game experience than running to the change machine to get five dollars (that's right five dollars that how I rolled in 1990) in change before the continue game clock counts all the way down on your machine. Plus you could meet people, the guys who hung out in arcades were also pretty good in shop class they carried themselves with that cool confidence so devoid in algebra

a great arcade game from the era: Final Fight. Which I guess was just a double dragon rip-off - but one taken to the next level that allowed you to play as a giant guy who could bash crap - and jump kick
