ajs510 122 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 I'm a centipede grand champion. I once played for 16 straight hours on the same game.I can distinctly remember setting the High Score at my local Pizza Hut when I was about 8 years old. I was so proud of myself that I made my Dad take me back there the next day so I could see my initials up in lights on the machine. Yeah, they unplug it at the end of the day, resetting the scores. Bastards!!!Kind of shattering for an 8yo, like running into Dirty Dutch at the park in it's level of permanent damage. Link to post Share on other sites
Ron_Mexico 4,238 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 when I was young, there was an arcade withing walking distance, I was absolutely addicted to Frogger. Link to post Share on other sites
SBriand 4 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 I loved Frogger but sucked at it.I also really loved Pole Postition II. The place that sponsored my dads soccer team had one so after everygame we would go there and eat dinner and I would just play it all night long getting the top score on every track.

insano 0 Posted July 24, 2006 Share Posted July 24, 2006 Remember this: Whatever game you purchase, the novelty will wear off. Make sure and pick one that can be played with a lot of friends, beacuse after a while, that's the only time it will be used. Link to post Share on other sites
