I used to love the Pacman that was like a table. Another arcade that I loved was the Track & Field. My fingers were numb for days after hammering those buttons for hours.
I was addicted to Super Mario Brothers, Paperboy, Pac-man, some motorcycle racer game where you could build your own tracks (wish i remembered the name), zelda, and kangeroo. I loved those games!! <img src="biggrin.gif" border="0">

Pac Man was definitely my favourite arcade game. I used to have one of those Atari consoles and played Pac Man, Commando, Space Invaders and all other kinds of really basic games which were so hi-tech at the time!

There was a Ms. Pacman table game at the pizza place where I hung out as a teen. Hubby says they had a Tetris table where he worked in high school.
Wonder who got stuck cleaning the pizza grease off the screens!

Galaga has a lot of sentimental value for me. I wasn't much good at it, but my bf and his best bud would play for hours... me doling out the quarters, naturally After I went to college I actually learned to play it myself, but either my reflexes were slower at 21 than at 17, or it was the beer, LOL

I was in Niagara Falls for a couple of days of meetings in early June. Someone's idea of a good team building exercise was bowling. They had this little arcade inside the bowling alley and Bogie became very anti-social when he discovered they had an old Galaga machine in there. They even had the black-light that made everyone's jeans glow. I felt just like a teenager again for a brief moment.
I played all afternoon and ignored my colleagues other than a couple of games of air hockey.
Your favourite 80's arcade game?
