Arcade Shit talking

[BuddhaBus]

Certainly in hell ain't talking about anything else!!

[Texasteel]

I stole Tex's Texas Hold 'Em title. Comin' to get my Pacman back!

Look again BB

[BuddhaBus]

Look again BB

Yeah, I already know. That game is kind of like a war of attrition. It's easy to keep winning, but you just get sick of playing. The dealer has a slight "tell". Congrats Tex!

I just put it up and played every once and a while when I was busy around the house. I'm retired remember.

Your one of the few (Galax comes to mind too) that probably spends more time on here than me! I wish I was retired so I could master Pacman and Ms. Pacman and rub truck's face in it like a dog smellin' his own mess!

I'm guessing you're probably about 10 years younger than me, which means I've got that many more years at being a true gamer. You know not this PS3, Nintendo Wii, XBOX crap. I'm talking actually having to insert a quarter in the machine in order to play a game type stuff.

You do realize there were this places called arcades right?

Nope, I was born in 1971 just like you. I'll be 39 in about 3 months. Of course I remember arcades. Spent loads of time in them. I also remember joysticks, Atari, Pong, NES, Sega Genesis, PS1 and... gasp!... PINBALL! I'm just out of practice on a lot of the older games because I moved on to X-Box and such. I don't have the latest and greatest now though. First X-Box is the newest. Too hard to keep up with the new stuff coming out and, especially, the cost.

You old bastard I never would have guessed you to be that old. PONG, now that was a game for the ages. My latest is the PS2 but my kids have a Wii (which they don't use), and I'm about to put it in the living room.

I use to be out of practice on the older games but alas, like riding a bike it comes back - quick like.

I still have my old PS1, Nintendo 64 and X-Box. I have some of the classic arcade games for the PS1 like Pacman, Galaxian, Dig Dug (we need THAT on here!), Asteroids, etc. I used to own the Sega Genesis, Nintendo NES and Atari. I just couldn't keep up with the prices. I'd like to get a Wii and an X-Box 360 sometime.

You might need some of those classic arcade games to help get you back in the 'swing' of things. Just captured the BIG APE High Score (122,500). This is my arcade now

Does it have anything to do with his immaturity?

I know who's bed I'm pissing on this weekend!

[stlrtruck]

and to be honest with you that makes me want to

But hey if that's what makes you happy, who am I to judge. But please wipe down the keyboard when you're finished

In the Halfway House, numbskull!

[stlrtruck]

Oh, it's on like Donkey Kong, oh wait I have that score now too!
Bring the meat...NO I've got that one too
Do you have any scores now adays?

[BuddhaBus]

Hey, I've still got three left and I would have taken the Texas Hold 'Em back again today, but I miss-clicked and submitted my score accidentally. You'd think they'd set that game up a little better. I've only done that about 7 freakin' times now!

[stlrtruck]

Yeah I feel your pain! I've done that plenty of times before myself.

[BuddhaBus]

The Hold 'Em game is the worst for that. The submit score thingy is right beside your action controls. Frustrating!

[stlrtruck]

Hey Buddha, I now rule in space too! Asteroids is now my new High Score.

[stlrtruck]

HEY BUDDHA

still standin' at 8, whatcha gonna do about it?

[stlrtruck]

In a word.....NINE

As in 9 Arcade High Scores.

[stlrtruck]

TENDid I mention 10?

Okay Buddha, have a go at any 10 of them!

[stlrtruck]

So the arcade expanded a bit more than the last time I was in there.

But I'm gonna put you all back on notice. The arcade may be here at Steelers Universe, but it's still MY ARCADE!

Just a gamer, that's all. Have been since I was a kid. I haven't walked passed an arcade without having the itch to play a game.

I used to be the same way with the older games...heck I have a hard time playing these games using the comp keyboard..my typing skills suck so to use the keys is rough.

I'm the same Sal. I struggle with the keyboard, but put a joystick in my hand and I can go to town.......................... Wait a minute,,,,, that didn't sound right.

Learning how to type in HS has been beneficial to my online gaming.

I took metal, wood and auto shop classes...stayed away from typing, sewing and cooking classes.
