Data East made the worst pinball machines, bar none.

usually yes, but they had a few good ones like: Gun's n' roses pinball machine

maybe most playable pinball ever made beside Indiana Jones (Williams).


One shooting game that was bitch to play through was Aerosmith arcade game Revolution X.

I used to be an arcade manager in mid 90's and played enough of arcade games/pinballs and i still don't have xbox/playstation or pc-games... most of the new games are just boring with nice graphics.
Last pc-game i played through was Hidden&Dangerous:

Was it Ghost&Goblins where you were able to connect several machines each four players ? We also had some tank/mech game that was connected to several arcades through our own net. Too much ahead of it's time...

When Sega hit arcade markets with their Nascar, Rally and VF1 it was downhill from there, no story line or actual playing of a game, more like coin after coin to repeat something all over.

ET on Atari was basically impossible because it wasn't made correctly. I saw a documentary about thousands of ET games being buried in the desert. The makers of it didn't have proper time to get it out to the public.
How about "Adventure" by Atari? I was never good at that. Seemed fun, though.
I always thought Frogger was tough. And Pac-Man.

Some of those games finally got dug up, it was one of those rumours that was actually true, they did dump em in a landfill:scared Some of those games have actually sold at auction for decent cash.



And yep Frogger could get mighty difficult that was for sure.

It is rather amusing that EVERYBODY and I mean EVERYBODY that played this game says it was the toughest video game ever. Ask anybody that played video games at an Arcade and every single one of em will say they lost millions of quarters on that game:mj07:
