[QUOTE="The loafer, post: 294308, member: 1434"] now you guys are dabbling in my VR waters "and he saw the light and the light was warm and felt freaking good" SYT: I only mention those for the guests who come over. I don't disagree, there is no need for 4000 mame games but... some titles just gotta be on there. A while ago I was participating in a colecovision high score competition. I didn't do rather well lol BUT it forced me to play some of the classics for more than just ten minutes. This in turn made me rediscover why some of these games were so damn good and let me to kind of change my opinion on a few of these. One such example is Pitfall. Sure the gameplay is that of a cheap "too basic" platform game but forcing myself to play it more, the years rolled back and I got caught in its web! next thing you know after maybe 4-5 hours of playtime, I was able to get 100K and almost finish the game. It felt great. Did that with a few other Colecovision games and now started doing that with some of the mame classics and even some pinball games on the VPX pincab (and in VR). I found doing so brought me better appreciation for these games but also for the developers too. Pinball especially has been an eye opening experience because even though I was a pinhead back in the day, I didn't spend hundreds of hours on EACH of the pinball games! So some you discover "hey, there's more ruleset than expected for this old game", etc. [/QUOTE]
