DO NOT POST ANY YELLOW-FACED EMOJIS EITHER. THEY'RE BASICALLY PACMEN AS WELL.

Hexbear emotes don’t count as emoji because they’re not Unicode characters… use those Hexbear powers, comrades!

The problem with PacMan is he's a cracker. :lmayo: We need a POCMan

:garf-troll:

.if Pengo is so good, why isn't there a Pengo battle royal?

[-] DayOfDoom@hexbear.net 10 points 1 year ago

That could be good. It'd totally work.

Arcade games are the original P2W microtransaction games none of them are good

[-] SorosFootSoldier@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago

I upvoted you but I totally disagree, arcade games are great, you just need to get into the dip switch controls and turn on free play when the manager isn't looking.

[-] buckykat@hexbear.net 11 points 1 year ago

Microtransaction games aren't bad only because of the literal financial cost of the microtransactions themselves, they're also bad because the presence of the microtransactions informs the design of the game itself. Arcade games are designed to eat quarters and waste time, so even if you're playing them pirated on an emulator they're still designed around that exploitative gameplay loop.

The Simpsons

At the end, you kill Mr. Burns.

[-] dditty@lemm.ee 8 points 1 year ago

It was so fun when I finally got MAME emulator set up just so I could finally play through the whole Simpsons arcade game with virtual quarters to keep continuing to the end

All you need in life is Shadow Over Mystara by Capcom, hands down the best beat em up ever.

The fact that so many books still name Pac-Man as "the greatest or most significant or most influential" arcade game ever only tells you how far arcade games still are from becoming a serious art.

[-] Seryph@lemmygrad.ml 11 points 1 year ago

Ikaruga was released in arcades right? Okay, just checked and it was, so Ikaruga.

[-] WoofWoof91@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

i'm very glad we didn't have ikaruga machines at my local arcade

i would have been banned for yelling at them lol

the union steward for the area I supervised ended her memos with "God Bless the United States and it's Military". she ended up getting fired when an Army-reservist Manager caught her taking dozens of unauthorized smoke breaks.

I LOVE D&D Tower of Doom. Even owned a 2-player arcade cabinet of it at one point.

I've also lost many hours to 1943, Cadillacs and Dinosaurs, and Virtua ACAB 2.

Hell yea

[-] lemmyseizethemeans@lemmygrad.ml 9 points 1 year ago

I really love asteroids deluxe. Galaga of course. Marble madness was amazing even the music was dope but it's hard to emulate without a trackball. Rampage and gauntlet OG multiplayer..

[-] JK1348@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

Galaga is my favorite

collaborationist capitalist roader unionists always uphold the revisionist conscious hitler particle know as "pac-man"

[-] Comp4@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago

I guess I would choose Street Fighter II

If this is real, your steward is breaking the law and you can probably threaten them into protecting you under "duty to represent"

Its Golden Axe unless you are some kind of bourgeois parasite and own a Revenge of Death Adder machine.
