Basketball sharpshooter!
I keep watching this over and over and I still think it’s fake. But how do you fake this! I’d like to see this guy play one where the hoop actually moves around! [Discuss on the Forum »
Street Fighter IV continues it's record breaking trend
I’m not sure how many location tests Street Fighter IV has had up to this point but either way it’s had numerous public appearances and each time the game gets a lot of positive attention and of course, sets or breaks previous records as far as a location test goes. The official Street Fighter »
New images and site for Taito's D1GP racer
I had been hoping to see a game or two from Taito at ASI (especially Chase HQ2 which I’d really like to try out) but no luck on that front so we’ll just have to wait until they hit arcades. Unless you live in Japan of course, where they make sure to publicize location »

Konami's Jubeat could be a record breaker
Konami is really pushing forward in the coin-op game sector these days and if the trend continues they could upset Namco from the #2 spot. This will certainly be helped by the unique game Jubeat (pronounced “You-beat” BTW) which has just gone through initial testing in Japan. From that test, all indicators point to »

Missing In Action: Tanks, Planes, Mechs and more
Missing in Action is an editorial series that discusses the kinds of games that at one time were prevalent in arcades or the types of games that would make great arcade games but aren’t being made as the industry prefers light-gun, racing, standard fighting titles, etc. Previous articles have taken a look at Space »
A new arcade fighter – Dark Presence by Galloping Ghost Productions
It is rare to find someone willing to take the effort to produce their own arcade game. Most developers, indie or not prefer to bring their efforts to a platform like the PC or a console these days. So when I come across the rare instance of an indie arcade game development, I like »
Shaggy's Review: Blazing Angels by GlobalVR
I had the opportunity to play GlobalVR’s Blazing Angel’s arcade today so what better time to review than when the game is fresh in my mind? There are a few pictures in the review that I took with my camera phone so if you see a low quality shot, that’s where it came from. »
