Death Race can still be found at the Museaum Of the Moving Image in Queens.

AWESOME. You hit pedestrians they turn into little crosses what more do you need?

Tempest shouldn't be played in MAME unless you have the right controller.

True. It's near impossible to have a satisfying game of Tron.

does the Museum Of the Moving Image in Queens have a Spy Hunter machine? i always look for one when i'm in coney island.

I don't know...I didn't fully check it out. They used to have the whole history...now the really old games you could never play anyway(too rare, like Space War) are upstairs in the museum and downstairs they have both video games, including Star Wars, and some home consoles. It's crazy, because my girlfriend works at museums, she gets in free, so we go there and can check out the exhibits, some of which are fucking amazing, and watch a movie (most recently...X: The Unheard Music, which was fucking amazing) and play games, though you have to pay for them and I haven't had the time to.

Barcade in williamsburg had a Spy Hunter, I think.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Friday, 9 February 2007 17:22 (eighteen years ago)

I wonder if someone has made a website where you can find arcade machines by location?

MILLION DOLLAR IDEA JON RETIRES IN 2008

― Edward III (edward iii), Friday, 9 February 2007 17:34 (eighteen years ago)

Barcade was my idea. During the dot-com boon I was like, "i'm gonna open a bar that's gonna have 80s music and vintage arcade games and all the dot com geeks are gonna love it because they can play dig-dug instead of talking to girls and I'm gonna call it Barcade". Then 4 years later it opened in Williamsburg...friends were calling me like "hey, is that your bar?". Nope. My other idea was an obvious one...a movie theater in Williamsburg. It's being built right now.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Friday, 9 February 2007 17:35 (eighteen years ago)

Yea, I was thinking something like Yelp.

Also would be cool = a program that would OCR cameraphone shots of high scores

There's a pinball database for DC/MD/VA, and I'm pretty sure when I was looking for it once, I stumbled across similar sites for video games

Of course, such a system would eventually fall victim to the fact that such communities degrade in their usefulness to the quality of their worst members

When I was interviewing at Kenan-Flagler in 95 (HI I'M OLD), one of my friend's sisters worked at 411 (italian restaurant) on Franklin with 2 of the guys in Polvo (not Dave or Ash). One of those guys had opened up a vintage video game arcade that served alcohol and fixed the machines to take nickels and dimes instead of quarters.

I wonder if that's still around.

A Simoom is a strong, dry, dust-laden desert wind that blows in the Sahara, Palestine, Jordan, Syria, and the desert of Arabia. It is also known as a samiel, a simoun, or a simoon. Its temperature may exceed 54°C and the humidity may fall below 10%. The storm moves in cyclone (circular) form, carrying clouds of dust and sand, and produces on men and animals a suffocating effect. The name means “poison wind” and is given because the sudden onset of a simoom may also cause heat stroke. This is attributed to the fact that the hot wind brings more heat to the body than can be disposed of by the evaporation of perspiration. Simoom kills like lightning. The desert soil is a sea of flaming sand which is why Arabs wear turbans and robes and stay in their tents during the day. The Simoom is a deadly wind which stifles travellers and all sorts of animals, unless they fall prostrate on the ground. This wind rises between the 15th of June and the 15th of August. It whistles with great violence there, appears red and inflamed and kills every living thing that it strikes. But the death which it causes is not its most horrifying effect. The bodies of those who die by it are dissolved, without losing, however, their shape of color, so that it would seem as though they were asleep. If one touches these bodies, the part which is touched remains in the hand.

Herodotus writes of the Simoon, a red wind which blows across the Sahara. It enters and coagulates in the locks of pistols. Sand from this wind has been known to blow as far north as the southen coast of England. The wind can appear so thick that Mariners have referred to it as the "Sea of Blood."

1) Charles Bonnet Syndrome: old people hallucinating munching cows and blue streamer-fish.

2)

Nifheim Niflheim ("Land of Mists") is the realm of ice and cold in Norse mythology. It is located north of Ginnungagap and there dwells the hrimthursar (Frost Giants) and here is also located Hel. The tree Yggdrasill has a root here in the spring Hvergelmir, and it is gnawed away at by the serpent Nidhogg.

Niflheim is ruled by the goddess Hel, daughter to Loki by the giantess Angrboda, personally appointed by Odin to rule over Niflheim. Hel, also called Hela in some cases, rules over Helheim in addition to this. Half of her body is normal, while the other half is that of a rotting corpse. Possibly, Helheim and Niflheim are the same thing, but this will not fit in with the nine worlds of Norse mythology mentioned in various mythology books. Niflheim is broken into several layers. One level designed for heroes and gods, where Hel would preside over the festivities for them. Another is reserved for the elderly, the sick, and those who are unable to die gloriously in battle and enter Valhalla. The lowest level resembled the Christian version of Hell[citation needed], where the wicked are forced to live forever.

I keep bouncing back and forth.
I was shockingly emotional when this new ILX happened. Like - crying. In a good way. Thank you, everyone who made it happen.
