What Was The Name Of That One Game? + Arcade Dominator Returns

Happy Saturday everyone. Nothing as far as “news” to speak about so I’ll just go with some fun items. Also if anyone cares, I’ve started a little blog on the side to talk about other stuff that doesn’t belong on Arcade Heroes that I’m calling Gaming Arcryphon.

First, I’ll share three images from some arcade games, they might be old they might be new but I’ll try and stick with something more obscure if possible. Often times you might remember a game you came across as a kid and you remember a few vague details about it but not much else – especially the name. There have been thousands of video arcade games produced since 1972, for this “quiz” I’ll stick to just 3. Can you guess what they are without first looking at the redacted spoiler? Have you given any of them a spin?

It’s promoting Infamous: Second Son for the PS4 and was filmed at a Round 1 location.

Speaking of videos, I don’t think I shared this on AH yet but here is my latest arcade game review for Sega’s new Transformers: Human Alliance:
