[Somebody go back and get a crap load of dimes... oh quarters... right.]
Today's post is brought to you by the evolution of the Arcade.
By that I mean, once there was Pac-Man, then there was a room, filled with thirty something versions of Pac-Man, Space Invaders, Donkey Kong, et cetera. Then that room was filled with dozens of people, each had a pocket full of quarters and a smiling owner standing at the back office window.
Arcades are still around and still fun to go to. There's something about slapping in a quarter, or swiping a game card, and enjoying a few minutes of fun with your friends. [But we all know it's about the high-score.... not just the highest score, just having a higher score than the friend standing next to you.]
The face of the Arcade has changed is some aspects. It's basically an easy access to a large quantity of titles, of all genera. The X-Box 360 has one such version. Their digitally distributed titles offer the same range of games on a massively broad, ever evolving scale.
Some such games are straight from the old arcade machine, while others are rebuilt and revamped for maximum enjoyment, with a fresh technological polish. [And new game smell! Oooh cherries!]
Then there are titles built today with one thing in mind. Making the coolest experience you can get, on your digital arcade for a great price and jaw dropping graphics. Now I'm not telling you that you're gonna be looking at the Avatar of video games, but more like. "Jeez Louise this is a arcade game, no way!"
To which I'd reply. [Yes way, and stop calling me Louise!]
So, in-case you haven't guessed, I'm going to show you what arcades games look like now with a specific title. Honestly, it looks amazing. I caught myself saying. "X-Box Arcade?! dude....."
