[OT] Mission:Arcade

I wandered upon this site awhile back and the Arcade Salutes had me ROTFLMAO.

Mission:Arcade

How I Reclaimed My Childhood With 3 Sheets of MDF

Basically a couple guys, Rene and Matt, from Canada chronicling the building of an arcade cabinet. Along with reporting progress there's a section called Arcade Game Salutes which is funny as hell. I happen to like Crazy Climber but to hear Rene crack on it is hilarious. The other 4 'salutes' are good as well, sharp writing. Look on the right hand nav to get to them.

Anyway, funny read for the retro game enthusiast and the building stuff is interesting too.

haha this cracked me up

the arcade game salutes are indeed very well written and i had to laugh out loud about the comparison of the sneaky pool player and the sneaky capcom programmers trying to pull the money out of your pocket
