For those of you who might not recall, the X-Men cabinet was comprised of two screens, side by side, and controls for up to six players simultaneously. The cabinet seemed well ahead of its time. I remember fighting my way through the gathered crowd just to be the next to drop his quarter in (and hope I wasn’t stuck as Dazzler). Now the app store supplies the same game for download on the iOS platform.
Pre-orders for the Arcade1up X-Men arcade game open on July 15, also includes Captain America And The Avengers and Avengers In Galactic Storm
A look back at a key moment in one gamer's life at the local video games arcade.
Ground Kontrol in Portland, OR. All ages till 4 or 5 I think and then 21 and over at night. Full bar, top floor is all pinball machines, lower floor is stand ups.
10 minute walk from my place downtown and I'll easily spend $20
Those parties were the best. I remember something similar where myself and a few friends finished Die Hard Arcade. Good write up. You have got me pining for the good old days
Back then it was about trying to get the top score and having fun hanging out with your mates and no one cared about how many pixels a game had

There are no two greater symbols of geek culture than comic books and video games, and comic book games combine these two unique forms of entertainment into one enjoyable experience. Like many other media combinations, some are good and some are awful, but the good ones stick out by letting us play as our favorite heroes, anti-heroes, and outright villains in fantastical settings.
These comic book games are just a few of the best out there, taking the things we love about comics and injecting them with the interactivity superserum that makes games so great.
