To All the Arcade Players out there!!

[Weapon_R]

There used to be a game many years ago where the player would construct a castle out of walls that resembled tetris blocks and race against the computer to build a better castle. Then after the time was up, the castles would shoot at each other and whoever lost their castle first was the loser. Does anyone remember the name of this game?? Desperately needed!

Also, my first computer game ever (on a 386 machine lol) was a simple airplane game. The airplane was a light blue world war II style airplane game and all that happened was you flew this airplane on the screen and dropped bombs on the buildings. It was incredibly simple, very small file but i was wondering if anyone came across this game also. thanks.

look on an abandonware site, you can probably find a copy of it. I think there were console versions too, you might want to look around on emulation sites too.

Doesn't U still have a arcade version of Rampart kicking around??
You still have an old NES?? I'm sure you can find a copy of it for NES.

If you like old games check out www.mame.net (Multiple Arcade Machine Emulator) , they have an emulator for arcade games.. I use that program and download ROM's from Kazaa and other sources. It rules!!

Yeah, DK was awesome. I just got 1500+ ROMs off of Kazza in the last couple of nights, so try that!

I think I remember seeing that castle game a few years back at the University aracade. It was back when the arcade was beside the den.

Dude, you got 1500+ MAME games??? I've been using LimeWire (same net as Kazaa), and I can only find about 400+ games. My complete collection right now is like 550+, but not all work.
You mind sending some over this way??

I'm REALLY happy I got D&D:Tower of Doom and Shadows Over Mystara games before they shut down the public software sites. I've been trying to get those two games for ages!
