Default Re: Best Arcade Games

Why? I never understood why Dragon's Lair might be fun. The directional pushes just seem like guesswork to me.

It was the first laser disc game and as such had the best graphics at the time. Most of the games at that time were just move and shoot (pacman, tempest, donkey kong, etc.). It also had a story line (not just hit the shoot button). There were patterns in almost all of the scenes you just had to learn to recognize them. I put enough money into this game that I was able to beat it.

I'm sure the modern games are much better but dragon's lair was at the top when I quit playing.
