InsAnE iN tHe Mem...MaMe

Whatcha know about being a kid in the early 90's, dropping quarters into the TMNT game at the arcades like it was hot? Arcades? Remember... those old archaic rooms where there were about 20 machines where you had to stand up and mash the buttons numerous times? Do you remember games where you had a HUGE red or blue gun and stood 2 feet away from the screen shooting at aliens pop out from crates or criminals that are shooting you from a helicopter.

MAME stands for Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator. This is the definition of a true broke college gamer. No money, but internet access at school or at your parents house will get you every arcade game ever made. Let me say it again, EVERY ARCADE GAME EVER MADE! No need to go out and spend money on systems or games from the past, this is the real deal.

So in the end you get all your favorite arcade games on your computer and can play them right off. But wait, your 12" monitor is to small, no worries, you could hook up an S video cable to your plasma, hd, dlp, whatever tv and play right off of it (if you have this option available). Also if you have an xbox 360, you could play using your controls with an attachment piece.

Enjoy. And if you have any old school games you like, post a comment and share the love.
