That Centipede ripoff reminds me of a Pac-Man ripoff I played on my Apple ][+ called Tax Man.  What's interesting is that the title screen said that Tax Man was made by HAL Labs.  Could I have been a fan of HAL Labs longer than I thought?

I remember walking to gas stations to play games like Captain Commando and Street Fighter 2 with friends.  Heck, even the local mom and pop video rental place (PayLess Video) had arcade machines in them!

I don't really know much about Metal Gear, so the only thing I can think of is that you'll need a good box to hide in.  Really the only things I know about Metal Gear is that Solid Snake likes to hide in boxes and has a frriend named Quiet.

You want to be cooped up in a little box, and then drooled on by little kids? :)

I'll probably have my Game of the Year Awards up here sometime in Janurary.

Would you believe that I actually have a real life Dig Dug arcade machine in my garage?  It's not in as good of condition as the one pictured there, though.  Yeah, I'm a freak.

Your pretend present is a real life Chocobo you can ride around and clean up after. :)

Whoo hoo!  I bet a date with Cammy would be interesting.

One of my brothers for Christmas got me a little chibi Mega Man figure of one of the bosses (Bomb Man).

Your pretend present is a limosine so you can drive me and Cammy around. :)

Yeah sorry it's not very imaginative.  The only things I know about Metal Gear is that Solid Snake likes to hide in boxes and he has a friend named Quiet.

Keep that up and you'll turn into a Skylander!

I got some PS4 games this Christmas.  I got the Storybook Edition of Odin Sphere, Dragon Quest Builders, and Tearaway Unfolded.  Although the version of Tearaway is the European version, so I hope it works! :)

And your pretend present is a box to hide in, just like Solid Snake!
