Nice site here!!

Midway is the BEST company for making good arcade games IN THE 80s!!!!!!!

Its sad that everything has gone downhill,games today are garbage in my opinion......... (Arcades are filled with crap .. Fighting games,etc)

I am wondering why Midway doesnt have Flash MS. Pacman online --- That is the BEST MS. PACMAN EVER!!!!

Other games i would like to see online are

Galaga,Galaxian,Donkey kong..... I mi$$ those games like crazy and would like to be able to play them again!!!

I love classic games happy

Nice site here!!!!

Welcome to the forums! Let me clarify some important points about some of the things you mention.

Midway is the BEST company for making good arcade games IN THE 80s!!!!!!! Yes. They brought over almost everything over from Namco in Japan and licensed. Theres also a mysterious racing game called TX1 floating around somewhere but I do not know.

Its sad that everything has gone downhill,games today are garbage in my opinion......... (Arcades are filled with crap .. Fighting games,etc) This is true for the most part, but now there is Gametap (http://www.gametap.com) to play and relive these classics. Ultracade (Global VR) may have found itself in some arcades featuring classic Midway games but the younger generation of kids put them to shame by demanding games with more flashy graphics.

I am wondering why Midway doesnt have Flash MS. Pacman online --- That is the BEST MS. PACMAN EVER!!!! The American distribution of PacMan and Ms Pacman is now exclusively distributed by Namco Bandai Games and Midway no longer has the distribution rights because once a certain game falls below a certain distribution target amount the property reverts back to its original owner. As in the case with Robby Roto.

Other games i would like to see online are

Galaga,Galaxian,Donkey kong..... I mi$$ those games like crazy and would like to be able to play them again!!! Again , Galaga and Galaxian are exclusively Namco property, and Donkey Kong belongs to Nintendo. However not to long ago these games were re-released by Namco Bandai in arcades in a collection machine.

I love classic games happy Same here

Nice site here!!!!

Well like this one i found here in flash

http://anonym.to?http://www.sluniverse.com/php/vb/arcade/Ms.Pacman.swf

Notice how the 1/2 the sounds are right (The background sound while eating dots,the sound after you eat a ghost,etc) The only thing is: THEY DIDNT COMPLETE THE WHOLE THING sad (No intermission,etc)

I have heard people running the game itself off Emulators and quite frankly,they sound like crap!! (This flash game above is 10x better (Even though its not complete))

Ah well.......

Emulation is wonderful when done properly and legally.

Digital Eclipse was the first company to legalize emulation for private home use in game collections such as Williams Arcade Classics for Sega Saturn and PSOne.

~ The Dick Cheney Pigeon Hunt ~

Concept:

One or Two Players
- Choices are - Dicky C or Georgie B

The scenery is located at a freeway ramp in New Orleans. As the masses of Katrina victims make their way down the ramp, you must shoot them in the face with your shot-gun. Higher points if you are able to shoot the Bill O'Riely or Shawn Hannity. Highest points for clocking George Tenet or Condi Rice before they get onto the ramp.

Whilst playing two players - if you shoot the other player in the face it multiplies your score each time.
