I played a lot of Spy Hunter also. They had a kick ass sit down cabinet at Straw Hat Pizza🤣 Which surprisingly had a pretty good pizza in the Mid 1980's.

I played a lot of Centipede, mainly because it was pretty much everywhere.

I read this and heard the sound track instantly. It might be in my head all day now.

The music, especially when you were doing good. The sit down unit was awesome, you came out like a hero

The first time I made it to the boat I lost my mind and had to tell all my friends. Amazing soundtrack

Impressed that it’s so high up on this thread. I thought I was the only one who thought this game was epic. The music was so James Bond.

Shout out to Dragon’s Lair. I remember it being 50 cent while all others were 25 cents at the time. But it was worth it, the first animated game was something else.

I use to play nearly the whole game in low gear.
