Console Obsession:
"The final game mode is something of an attempt to get to the family fun market. The game is essentially the same, but instead of having money up for grabs, forfeits are the aim of the game. By forfeits, the game refers to such menial tasks as cooking, washing up and going out to buy a better DS game. There are unlockable modes with forfeits for friends, for family and for couples, as well as a custom forfeit mode, in which you make up your own menial tasks to be completed by the loser. Unfortunately, I didn't get that far, as unlocking each mode requires you to win a set amount of money in the normal game. Given how deary a task this would have proven to be, you'll have to forgive me for giving up."
Some arcade them are truly innovative. Others make people wonder why they were even made. This is a list of some of those games.
Because back in the day there were no home consoles(Well, There was but they were hella expensive) so people loved going to the local place to play some arcade games...
Let's be honest... I miss those times...
I miss those times deeply! The best time was I was at this place called The Wooden Nickel and the whole time I was eating dinner with my family I saw this one guy beating everyone on Mortal Kombat II. So after I ate I got a couple quarters and beat that guy's ass. Then I went back to the table for dessert. I seriously doubt arcades will make a return but I hope maybe one day they will.
Ahh the time of the arcades, I consider it golden era of the social aspect of gaming. Every area usually had the same games but different sets of house rules so bragging rights were given to the most versatile. Playing with a stranger face to face led to having either close friends or even closer rivals (sometimes both in my case). Tournaments were great events where people went to a proving ground to cheer for who represented their local arcade joint.
It was a friendly time that wasn't marred by the cloak of anonymity or the jerks who flood the fighting game circuit as of late. There was trash talking mind you but it never left beyond the sticks and buttons of duelists' battleground unless it was a challenge. I honestly hope for a resurgence sometime before I die so my future kid could experience it someday.......

That was the last arcade cabnit I played on it was 2010 on holiday in spain and my hotel had this wierd game I spend atleast €30 euros on it!
Kind of a donkey kong meets mario type game! O.o
i don't see arcades making a comeback any time soon as long as these new systems deliver the arcade sights and sounds why would anyone pay for it? they may have had a chance if online play didn't exist, but it does. Now you see arcade machines at your local megaplex or bowling ally to pass the time while you wait for your movie, but it's usually old games that occupy that scene.
Deal or No Deal is one of the most successful game show franchises on television. The game was first introduced in Holland and had since been popularized by other countries all over the world. So if you are one of those who had been addicted to the watching the game on T.V. and probably even wanted to be a participant, you can now play Deal or no Deal online for free.
Gamezebo: Let's be honest here: at its core, Endemol's hit show Deal or No Deal is simply a game about picking some random briefcases and hoping you win something. That might be suspenseful when there's a chunk of real money at stake, but it's a rough concept on which to build an enduring social game.
