first, several of your recent picks are all games I used to play regularly in the arcades.
second, they are also games I have/had score set that were good for first or second place.
...to then easily get beat etc. from these contests which I can't even participate in.
Today, I actually started leaning toward perhaps getting a used PC portable...perhaps in the 1-2 GHz range so fast enough for at least all the golden era games in MAME.
..cuz the $1300+ I need to save for a nice new G5 will likely be months down the road....and ideally nowadays I really don't need that speed except for MAME...so getting a cheap PC for that...and just continue to use this older, slow mac for e-mail, web, and other net crap seems ok for now.
Odds are I will get Panther installed and running on this old mac...so can still work on that project....but any version of that likely wouldn't be done before spring 2005 at the earliest.
Gee, Ian wins again...what a surprise Weehawk, can't you find a game that he is unable to play?
Unfortunately, I didn't have much time to play this week so I'm actually happy with third. I'm sure I could break 100K on this without too much effort.
