Give me a game in MAME to play, I'll write a quickie review of it. Go go go!

| GI JOE THE ARCADE GAME |
GI Joe The Arcade is... it's the dream we all dream of. Man vs machine in a world constructed entirely of scaled 2D sprites. It makes me think of a world where the 3rd dimension is portrayed with guile and imagination, not something as obvious and unimpressive as polygons. Also, I get to shoot thousands of people. I give GI Joe a hearty endorsement, then kill 50 Cobras with a grenade launcher.

I like to think of Mystic Warriors as a sequel of sorts to Sunset Riders - there's quite the crossover in aesthetics and intent here, I feel. Of course, this makes it an unacknowledged Contra side-story - and if you disagree with Contra, I will break you into millions of bitmapped gouraud shaded polygons then blow you up Lawnmower Man's arse. That's digital justice, son.

| thunderfox do it now |
This game has a pretty good flip kick - the flip kick of my neanderthal John Rambo-wannabe dreams, just perfect for taking out sinister floating spy drones. Why did the enemy arm their entire ground force with knives? Is it a Communism thing? I remember the music being better on Mega Drive, a driving John Carpenter-style theme. Thunderfox transcends it's banal visuals to being a very fun distraction of flip-kicking macho roleplay. Oil me up, Soldier!

Read the rules, dude. |
Yes, because you we have never discussed pirating video games ever. Also, these companies are going to die because I am pirating their arcade games from 1991. Drop the power trip. |
You two young lovers can take this bullshit and get it the fuck out of my thread, now
More reviews tomorrow guys, sorry |

Actually, it's OK to talk about them, but not to post links to them/request torrents. Furthermore, the full MAME ROM set contains many games you could play on a number of current systems, as well as Xbox Live Arcade!
If you have a problem with this, I urge you to PM Toups. He's a nice guy, I'm sure he'll talk to you about it. |

(also, one of the Gals Panic games contains underage animated nudity, which is illegal someplaces and pretty disgusting in allplaces) |

| I am quite enjoying Demon's World. Note that this is a "first-look" of sorts and not my offical review. |
