hansolo77 Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 I've created and pinned this thread to the top of our main page so everybody can find it easily. Do you have a game or list of games you'd like to see us have added to our competition? We'd love to hear from you! This is YOUR competition, so give us your games and we'll make it happen! In the past, we've looked to our users to supply us with game suggestions for our competition. Recently, things have become difficult in the real world, and keeping a fresh competition has fallen slightly irregular. We don't like to see this. We like seeing activity. So in an effort to try and liven things up, we're going to try and go back to the old way with polls, and a GAME OF THE MONTH (with the bonus being that game the GOTM winner would like to see). Be forewarned. Your game suggestions might not make it into the competition right away. We hope to get a lot of suggestions, and feel it only fair to give each game it's chance to shine. So please be patient! So here our the rules for submissions: Please check and make sure the game hasn't already been submitted before. Going forward, this is a clean slate. If you have the ability, please play the game and verify it has some manner of high score table in game. If the game doesn't have an in-game high score table, at least verify it is capable of displaying the current score when you're dead. Please consider the controls. If the game requires anything more than a joystick and action buttons, not a lot of people will be able to participate. Sure we want Star Wars (needs a Yoke) or some racing game (requires a wheel or spinner). But we need to keep it simple so everybody can play. We may add more rules as we become aware of how this process plays out. But in the mean time, enjoy! We look forward to hearing from you! -GameEx HS Moderating Team 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExedExes Posted March 5, 2016 Share Posted March 5, 2016 Hi all! Now that the Yolympics are over, and my team came from behind in the last hour of the tour from 3rd to tie for 1st, I am more than excited at that result. I'm ready to return here!

Just a small handful for now I'd like to see: Rescue 1942 Raiden Twin Cobra Tiger Heli (Fast Chopper!!) Eswat Cyber Police Satan's Hallow M.O.

hansolo77 Posted March 5, 2016 Author Share Posted March 5, 2016 Thanks guys! This was a spur of the moment idea when I saw the March Game? thread. I tried to find the old thread we were using for suggestions, and couldn't locate it. So I figured I'd just make a new one and make it more official by pinning it. Keep those suggestions coming!

hansolo77 Posted March 6, 2016 Author Share Posted March 6, 2016 I'll add them, but I think Pacman was asked for years ago and we learned we couldn't do it because it doesn't have an in game high score table, or there was some other complications.. As for Moon Patrol, that was actually my chosen game I sent to GC back when I won the Punisher GOTM title. See here for the deets. So anyway, that game will definitely find its way into the competition soon.' @Adultery... I don't know if we should add Journey or not. I mean, doesn't it require a special MAME mod to be able to work, because of the audio cassette function when you beat the game? I'll add it with some question marks.

Adultery Posted March 6, 2016 Share Posted March 6, 2016 No one wants it, believe me. It's the mudkip of arcade games. I didn't know anything about it needing a mod, it plays fine in my cab without the fancy audio? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hansolo77 Posted March 8, 2016 Author Share Posted March 8, 2016 I gotcha. Consider it added! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smario Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Probably too special, but I'd really love to play Gradius or Gradius II. Oh, and Raiden II. And Wonder Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtkiii Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 Track and Field Paperboy - (there are some tricks to get it to control well but it is possible) HyperSports Congo Bongo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansolo77 Posted March 16, 2016 Author Share Posted March 16, 2016 I'm not familiar with some of these.. do any of them require special controllers? Like Track and Field, does it require floor pads? And Congo Bongo, does it use Congo drums (duh I know it's a platformer)? But seriously, I think I should add an extra rule that games suggested need to be easily playable with standard controls (so we don't get like Star Wars (yoke) or some racing games that need a wheel, or Arkanoid (but I WANT Arkanoid!)).

rtkiii Posted March 16, 2016 Share Posted March 16, 2016 Track a field just needs 3 buttons, nothing special. Paperboy would be the "special" and needs some fine tuning of the controls, so I understand if that never gets picked but I did get it working on my cabinet from a forum post...somewhere Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansolo77 Posted March 17, 2016 Author Share Posted March 17, 2016 Ok, I'll update the lists to show possible issues. Keep those games coming in! I'll try to get a poll going here soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

millerbrad Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 How could I forget Kicker? I loved that game as a kid. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansolo77 Posted March 27, 2016 Author Share Posted March 27, 2016 Crazy Kong will probably NOT make it to the lists... it's basically a recolored version of Donkey Kong with changed audio. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crazy_Kong As for Kicker.. are you referring to just KICKER, or MR. KICKER? I'm assuming the first one, but just want to be sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
