The ability to go somewhere and actually have fun instead of seeing Beiber lookalikes all around jacking off on their stupid cell phones. Plus that game looks badass. I want to find it. --- End quote --- Can't blame them, really. I'm not any different, now. Why go to an arcade and waste quarters when I can play in the comfort of my home, with anyone I want online; without leaving the comforts of my couch, my fridge, and my pets? --- End quote --- There really is something badass about people huddled around a arcade machine in a dark room. Arcades were awesome. It's not the same as playing online. Quarters stacked up and folks claiming "next". Plus, when a 12 year old said he'd had sex with my mom; I could knock him out. You can't do that online. Back on topic : Ms. Pac-Man |

But you can't tell it's not more convenient to just play people over Steam or Xbox Live. That's why arcades are barely hanging on by a thread nowadays. |

I think a lot of it was when the home consoles started being as good, if not better, than arcades. I'm out of touch since I live in the sticks and I don't know many teenagers. Do kids still get dropped off to hang out somewhere? My parents occasionally dropped us off at the bowling alley with $20 and told us to have fun. Does that still happen? That may have been what killed arcades. Maybe it was just a different time. Maybe I'm just rambling. I'm not going to proofread this, so it may not make any sense. |
