Contra.

How exactly is this game supposed to be beaten?

Thanks, Konami.  Now I can't make my car payment.

Centipede.

Five minutes into the game...

All I wanted to do was play Golden Tee.

Joust.

It's all fun and games until you play an 8 year old.

Fuck Joust.

Galaga: Old-school BEAST

After hours of game play today on one of the greatest arcade games ever, I conceded myself to the machine piquing at level 196.

I need a Band-Aid.

Donkey Kong - Hardest. Game. Ever.

I can only get to level 7 or 8.

Daaaaamn, Donkey Kong!  You tough!

Original Pac-Man Arcade Game

Today, I stopped to get me a tasty snack from a local corner store and what did I find?

Suffice it to say, I ended up staying there for a good 3-4 hours drowning myself in 8-bit nostalgia. $5.00 later, I ended up getting farther than I ever have before.  

In fact, I had so much fun playing, I think I am going to find a local arcade to start playing all of the classics I oh so loved as a kid.  

More old-school arcade gaming adventures to come!
