A Look Back: Arcade Games

The idea of the arcade isn't what it used to be but they still hold memories for a lot of people.

Mortal Kombat and X-Men kept me in the arcades as a child.

NewJersian4697d ago

Loved playing the X-Men game as a kid. One of the best arcade games I have played

ZBlacktt4697d ago

Star Castle was my first favorite in 1980, then Galaga in 81. Then it took off after that. With Gyruss in 1983... the norms Donkey Kong, Frogger and yes Pacman.

It's too bad they are dying. Sometimes I hate that the home technology passed the arcades.

It's sad this comic book turned tabletop roleplaying game never got a good video game.

The Best Games You Can't Officially Buy Anymore

From Xfire: "It's been estimated that roughly half of the video games ever released on the market can no longer be downloaded or purchased. Whether this is exactly correct is not the point. Rather, we think that either way, the video game industry, as a whole, has done a terrible job at preserving video games and making older titles available to play for future generations."

You can play all of these games still lol. The headline is just misleading. Funny is that there is not one game in the list that you really can't play anymore due to it being online only games.

CorndogBurglar1819d ago (Edited 1819d ago )

Its not about games you can't play. Its about games you can't officially buy anywhere.

Terry_B1819d ago

The author changed it actually

Army_of_Darkness1818d ago

Who needs to buy these games anyway? Most of them are average at best and won't really be missed.

littletad1819d ago (Edited 1819d ago )

It says buy, not play though. You can't purchase Deadpool or the Simpsons game anymore. Unless you have a 360 for the simpsons or a physical copy of deadpool, or purchased it before it was delisted.

Look at his comment. It's from 9 hours ago. Article goes back 4 hours. Title might have been changed after realising the mistake

One you actually legit cannot play AT ALL is Noby Noby Boy. I miss turning my brain off and messing around in that game, was so psyched to re-download it when i rebought a ps3 slim, but you cant, even if it's in your downl library, along with a few other obscure PS3 games i had.

NecrumOddBoy1819d ago

The original memes to the moon game. Loved NNB on PS3.

I would replace Transformers Devastation with War for Cybertron and Fall of Cybertron tho.

Knightofelemia1819d ago (Edited 1819d ago )

Transformers Devastation was good but not as good as Fall and War of Cybertron they should be on the list. SH 2 I can play any time I want since it came free in a $10 Xbox I bought used. The Simpsons Arcade I have on my PS3 surprised the Xmen Arcade game is not on this list or the Turtles arcade game either.

CorndogBurglar1819d ago

I had the X-Men arcade game on my 360. I don't know if Xbox Live is still a thing or not, and of it is, I don't know of they still sell X-Men. But it was deinitely on Xbox Live at some point.

Knightofelemia1819d ago (Edited 1819d ago )

If you had X-Men before you can redownload it from your transaction history on the 360 Microsoft did not castrate the 360 from online. That is how I was able to redownload the old TMNT arcade game to my 360 you can't play it on XB1 or Series X but you can still access it for sure on the 360.
