    That was a great article. Man, did that bring back tons of good nostalgic feelings. I turn 40 tomorrow so I can relate to just about everything Wil said on so many levels.
    Thanks for the link.
    The world has moved on and left me behind. Therefore I choose to retreat into the past.

    Those were some good times. Too bad even if the Arcades do ever make a comeback, the atmosphere just wouldn't be the same as it was back then.

    Even when the arcades made a comback in the early 90's, it just didn't feel the same as it did in the early years.
