Lookie here! An old Arcade thread! I just got an Atari VCS so I have the Atari Vault both one and 2 been playing a little Black Widow and Asteroids lately!
My favorite arcade games back in the day were Dragons Lair, The Simpsons, Lunar Landar was like the first, Star Wars Arcade the sit down immersive one, Asteroids, NBA Jam, Galaga and the old school Defender. I loved all the games back in the day but those are the ones that come to mind as standing out.
I do know this - xenforo dropped the ball by not keeping the vbulletin reputation comments as a feature. The loss of the Reputation comments data when we switched to Xenforo really was the death knell for the site when it came to all the users that left. I know I missed it so much and I got way less interested in the site when that feature was gone and I run the site.
I'm on a page about incorrect corrections, and spent the better part of like two hours trying to get someone to understand that -5^2 = -25, not 25, and then that post had comments get reposted because that group is self sustaining, and that person was in turn trying to explain what I just explained to them. And I'm taking that as a victory
