    Uwe Bol? I doubt he'd go out in public, unless he wanted to be beat up by thousands of pissed off gamers.

    I thought the original was by far the best :) 2 was ok but 3 was poor and those shotgunsd made it much worse. The machine guns may be good though.

    In the 3rd one they removed the shoot offscreen to reload feature... That messed up the gameplay (for me anyway)

    Got nothing against shotguns though!

    Still looking forward to the 4th but I'd rather get a home conversion of Virtua Cop 3

    Indeed.

    Still in the subject of Arcades, i went to the mall yesterday to meet some friends, and while i was walking in front of HotZone Arcade i saw some new games (finally).

    From what i could see:
    2x OutRun 2
    4x ReVolt
    1x The Fast and The Furious
    1x Cycraft cabinet (don't know the game it's running)
    2x Tekken 5 (don't care about this really since i have the game at home for the PS2)
    1x Rumble Fish (another Atomiswave arcade, since they already have Dolphin Blue and Demolish Fist)

    I'll go there tomorrow to check new stuff. I know those stuff are not the latest releases, but it's always good to see arcades alive.

    They closed one of my arcades, and one of the net cafes in the mall :(

    Virtua Cop 3 was released over 1 year ago in the arcades in Japan so it must have been around at least 6 months in the west.

    I really wish that they would bring more of the gun games home. I would love VC3, Ghost Squad, Brave Firefighters, Target: Terror... Hell, give me some of the classics too like The Lost World or even Area 51: Site 4. It's just too aggravating to have to play them around here in a poorly maintained arcade (Dave & Busters) where they don't repair or callibrate the guns.

    Why is that guy wearing what looks to be a magazine pouch?
     

  17. He uses it to keep his sandwiches in :)
