Actually, it's just Killer List Of Videogames.  It's an excellent arcade game information site.  Check out some of the obscure titles like Boong-Ga Boong-Ga (http://www.klov.com/game_detail.php?letter=B&game_id=12696).

Greetings,

Oh gosh, 'top'!. What was I'm thinking. Thanks adolescent. :-)

Yes, it said here:

A video redemption game where the player uses a paddle to whack a denim rear-end target and make on-screen chratcer react in pain. The game has eight different selectable characters including an ex-boyfriend, an ex-girlfriend, a mother-in-law, a gold digger, a child molester, a con artist, a prostitute and a gangster. A card explaining the player's sexual behavior is despensed from the machine after the game and prizes can also be awarded.

Obscure indeed. :lol: I wonder if that game was ever banned?

Regards

My favourites were:

Elevator Action
Gauntlet
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (only multiplayer, not single player)
Gauntlet (as above)
Ghosts n Goblins
1943 (I should have shares in it, I spent that much)
Time Pilot
Green Beret

That was a while back.

Over the last few years I have only played Point Blank, Silent Scope (1 and 2) and Time Crisis (2 and 3 only).

Top game for me (if I could have any one in its original cabinet) would be Silent Scope 2 (both cabinets, linked).

Edit: Starblazer was amazing when it first came out, I think in 1986. Would love to play that again. It was the first game I saw with graphics overlaid on video, and it had sound that hasn't been beaten even today.

Hey!, It wasn't just kids. I was in my early twenties back then, and believe me, my friends and I spent WAY more time, and money in the game rooms than the 'kids', cuz we could afford it! All day, everyday, at least, until we got our C=64s, and started writing our own games. :-)
