None in CT, dam. lol. But a dollar to play, what happen to the good ol' days of 25 or 50 cents to play. Well, Arcades are dead anyways.

Wow a dollar to play SF that is crazy. You know if you was next to that arcade you could not resist though.

DirtyLary6487d ago

And most have a 6 win lock.

ParanoidMonkey6487d ago

Hm, don't know if I'd commute to San Jose for a game of SFIV, but it sure is tempting. I'm surprised there isn't one in San Francisco.

Damnit Capcom, release the home version already! I need my SF fix.

catalyst_nc6487d ago (Edited 6487d ago )

They keep adding more locations to this list as they come in too.

So if you don't see a place near you right now, you might want to check back every so often, they seem to update it with new places a couple of times a week.

(sigh) No where near me. . .I could take a trip to PE but then I'll die a lot inside knowing a went states over to play a video game.

It's important in life to maintain a broad palette when it comes to culture and the arts. Hideo Kojima agrees, as he continues to use video games like Death Stranding to introduce people to music and other elements they might not otherwise discover.

In an interview, SEGA Sound Team lead composer Tomoya Ohtani revealed that Sonic’s global music success didn’t come from chasing trends overseas.

I think this is how Japanese devs need to think. Catering to the west is a terrible idea. I personally, seek out Japanese developed games because they bring a unique experience to gaming. They just stand out more that way.

Eonjay58d ago (Edited 58d ago )

What do you mean when you say this is how they 'need to think'. I understand the idea of wanting to do them without worrying about Western sensibilities but I also think a Japanese dev can do whatever the hell they want. They don't have to 'think' the way some westerner in a forum says they have to think. You think you are giving someone a compliment but you are really being weird. Its not about who you are but what you do. Last year's GOTY was a western studio that made a JRPG. You didn't see any Japanese people claim that a studio in a Western company had to think a certain way. And yes, I do understand thats not what you were saying but I think we should always challenge our own viewpoints. Personally I have love the unique experiences that devs in Japan bring and I agree they don't need to cater to Western sensibilities. I only take issue with you saying how they need to think. Thats dangerous.

What he’s referring to is when a company like Atlus does a game and one of the characters per se ; call one of the other kids a retard , they shouldn’t have to censor the final product because of snowflakes all the way in America that are constantly ranting on twitter . None of these folks are real fans and only look for stuff to cry about . If you start pandering too much they end up taking more than a leg and an arm . Japanese humour is so funny but I hate when it’s censored because of “ western sensibilities “

Everyone understood the meaning behind the message but you. “I think” you need to go to the mirror, look yourself in the eyes call yourself an idiot sandwich.

Profchaos59d ago

The sonic music is iconic the mega drive games were some of the best on the system but i wouldn't say they were free of western influence especially since 3 was composed in part by Michael Jackson

But honestly most of the crush 40 soundtrack music lives in my head rent free

Sonic 2 Emerald Hill ❤️

drizzom58d ago

Please. Doesn't hold a candle to Chemical Plant Zone.

Stopac58d ago

Uhhh that's a strange thing for him to say. Even in the interview he admits to listening to a lot of western music.

NotoriousWhiz58d ago

Inspiration and trend chasing are not the same thing.

Eonjay58d ago

I think its strange that the topic of Western catering comes up with Sonic at all. Sometimes things just are what they are.

TheCaptainKuchiki58d ago

Authentic japanese spirit is the right path
