Midway has arcade classics like Mortal Combat, Terminator 2: The Arcade Game, and NBA Jam under its belt, and a former employee is looking to Kickstarter to support the development of a documentary to look back on the company’s glory days.
"If you love Midway's arcade classics as much as I do then you may want to watch this new documentary that's full of interesting stories." - A.J. Maciejewski from Video Chums
Still can't forget the first time I saw mortal kombat in action in a convenience store.
Had to pick up my jaw off the ground.
NBA Jam for me. Seeing those "big" heads that looked just like the player. My mind had never been so blown!
We all know about the Sega Mega Drive, Super Nintendo, Atari 2600, Sony PlayStation, Xbox and many other popular consoles that have appeared in the last 40 odd years of video gaming. But as with any lucrative industry, there’s always somebody else who wants a piece of the profit pie. For every great console out there there’s another one that failed miserably and so I thought it would be great to have a look at some of the most obscure examples.
Some of these consoles have really weird looking designs and controllers, especially the View-Master Interactive Visions and Bally Astrocade.
I thought maybe 3d nintendo thing, and next year they can add stadia to that list loool. Gosh it's almost like i do it on purpose haha
Now that a movie based on Midway's classic giant monster arcade game is releasing for some strange reason, it's a good time to take a look back at the Rampage series. Get ready to kick a few buildings down and let's destroy this city!
The game had almost no story , it will be interesting (I guess) to see what they add . I loved the game in the arcade
Lol another game to big screen adaptation that noone asked for. Out of all the ideas hollywood could have chosen and they chose this. Even warcraft and assasins creed bombed, i dont know what makes them think this will not bomb as well.
I'm sure the movie will be terrible but I hope it's the kind of terrible that's fun to watch (ie: so bad that it's actually entertaining). Either way, I'm looking forward to watching it because you don't see many movies based on long-dead video game franchises - there hasn't been a new Rampage game in 12 years.
