Hurry to a park!
« on: December 17, 2010, 12:10:35 AM »
No roadtrip pictures but this just made its way from Denver, to LA, to Texas, across the sea to the UK to a few different spots, and then eventually to my storage place. I havent played it since 1990 and I'm very happy to have one here now. I sold ckong a nice 25 anniversary SI/QIX a while ago to make room for this baby.

Wow. I never played 720 (nor had I heard of it before I started this hobby) but I'd really like to give it a try to know what all the buzz is all about :P

Machine looks very nice!

Matter of opinion I guess. It's one of my favourites and you could never compare any of the console ports to the arcade version. Nor an emulated one without the right joystick.

That was a jerk of a thing to say by the way.

Nice catch, and welcome here.

By the way, I already sold the SI/Qix game. I did like it very much, but I had an opportunity to get a classic Taito Qix cab, in working condition, which of course I couldn't let go. So the Si/Qix had to go.

And I'm entitled to tell you to keep that shit to yourself, especially if its in a thread about someone getting hold of their grail cab.

Ckong: I completely understand. Apart from it being so nice and shiny and new it really is nothing like the real thing..!

I didn't know there were skate arcade games. Cab looks in really good condition.
Congrats!

I wasnt talking about the cab being shit, i think the cab is great, but i dont care for the game, and theres no need for foul language either mister, save that for JAMMA+ forums
