    I love the way Zoo Keeper sounds. Very old school :D

    @nyastclair8174 7 лет назад +1

    It was wildly entertaining just watching you guys play these games. I really miss arcades how they were when I was a kid...I enjoyed watching the pros play more than blowing my couple quarters I would have.

  • @arcadesunday4592

    I sought out this particular video (again) as it always makes me feel good! Such a great vibe between Matt and John. Nice game play and overall discussion. Cheers for now!

  • @Riz2336
    @Riz2336 8 лет назад +1

    That was actually a pretty good video, reminiscent of the old days of arcades playing 2 players with your friends.

  • @terrencelabroix5272
    @terrencelabroix5272 8 лет назад +1

    The sound effects of Robotron are still awesome to this day

    • @Johnsarcade

  • @TNT_Mancave
    @TNT_Mancave 8 лет назад +2

    Lots of good advice on Zookeeper which I'm obsessed with at the moment - another good video John Also you have to run right at the tanks in Robotron - hard to do sometimes but the only way I have found of beating them

    • @Johnsarcade
      @Johnsarcade  8 лет назад +1

      +The TNT Manacle Thanks! Matt is really good and has a lot of great advice. Thanks for watching!

    Yaaaaaaaaay a new video :) Maybe I should watch it tomorrow... where supposed to get at least 15-25 CM of snow :)

  • @craiggilchrist4223
    @craiggilchrist4223 8 лет назад +2

    I used to play this loads as a kid, we used to pull our sleeves over our hand and slide over the buttons to run.

    • @Johnsarcade
      @Johnsarcade  8 лет назад +2

      +craig gilchrist I remember the comb trick. Have no idea how to do it today. :)

    • @darkside1exisle
      @darkside1exisle 7 лет назад

      I too did the comb trick on the buttons. The version I played had these raised collars around the backs of the buttons that was brutal on the fingers. The comb trick worked wonders on that game.

    • @craiggilchrist4223
      @craiggilchrist4223 7 лет назад

      Yeah, Buttons had to be pretty flush with the cab for the comb to work. Ive seen kids use socks on there hands with furniture polish on them to make em slide faster. Us gamers, if we can find a way, we will.

    @ryanmorrell7796 8 лет назад +2

    This would be a awesome "Vs. Series", every month or so.

    • @Johnsarcade
      @Johnsarcade  8 лет назад

      +Ryan Morrell Maybe. I'll see if Matt is up for it.

  • @JFD62780
    @JFD62780 8 лет назад +1

    PROTIP (Track & Field):
    When in the Long Jump and Javelin Throw events, you do NOT need to button mash as it does not help in distance. Thought you should know. ;)

    • @JFD62780
      @JFD62780 8 лет назад +1

      ...As for the High Jump...
      How the hell WAS I to know the running was automatic? AND the contest being the endurance-laden game of Vertical Chicken this session played out as? O.o

    • @Johnsarcade
      @Johnsarcade  8 лет назад +1

      +John F. Donnelly Nice! Great pro tip. :)

    • @TrickyZ33
      @TrickyZ33 5 лет назад

      I too was thinking the button mashing after the jump/throw was pointless.

      +Tom Hertz I do sometimes, but nothing is really the same as the actual arcade machine :/

      Would love for you two to film some games of MB's and shoot for a goal. Maybe even submit to TwinGalaxies. MB's is a great two player game.

    Really enjoyed watching you guys play Track & Field (was called Hyper Olympics in the UK). It brings back the memories! do you have it on a dual switch with Hyper Sports? :-)

    • @Johnsarcade
      @Johnsarcade  8 лет назад

      +Andrew Butler I used to have a Hyper Sports PCB that I would swap out. However, I really didn't find it nearly as cool as plain old Track and Field.

  • @haydnplus

    Hey John, was it YOUR idea to make the drums sound like a Nintendo game in the song Don't Feel haha

    • @Johnsarcade
      @Johnsarcade  8 лет назад

      Ha! I did the drums and actually most of the music in that song. Piano, Vocoder, guitar, etc.

    nice to see you again! John, what's the song you played out with on your latest vgo and ao? i thought the track was fabulous, and it sounded different to the kill screens. was it your track?

    • @Johnsarcade
      @Johnsarcade  8 лет назад

      +theorgandude Yes, it's my track. It's Matt singing. It's on our Soundcloud page soundcloud.com/thekillscreens/take-it-off-slowly-mix-2

    • @theorgandude

      john, this is your best work so far! the lyrics, phrasing and vocal performance from Matt is outstanding, your guitar riffs during the chorus is astonishing. love it!

  • @jasoomian
    @jasoomian 8 лет назад +1

    I could be wrong, but, I thought the rule of thumb was to jump on step 10? Does that not work as the bar gets higher?

    • @Johnsarcade
      @Johnsarcade  8 лет назад

      +Jasoomian Biped What do you mean? For the hammer throw?

    • @jasoomian
      @jasoomian 8 лет назад

      +John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech Oh, sorry, for the High Jump.
      Don't count the little stutter step at the beginning, but count the audible 'step-sounds.' ON his 10th step hit the jump button. Time your pressing of the jump button to coincide with that 10th step - I like to think that I interrupt the step sound with the jump button. I don't think that really happens, but, it helps with my timing.
      Should land you right between the M and I in Konami and leave you a good distance away from the bar for a good jump.

    I've been playin the saturn port of robotron alot lately. i suck way worse i dont see how people do it. i think my highest score is 200,000 n somethin

    • @Johnsarcade
      @Johnsarcade  8 лет назад

      +TVindustries5000 Is it good on the Saturn? Never knew that port existed.

    • @TVindustries5000
      @TVindustries5000 8 лет назад

      John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech I'd say so! part of the Arcade's Greatest Hits The Williams Collection. i first played it on the n64 in the Midway's Greatest Arcade Hits. im sure the ps1 version is good too. i think the n64 controller was one of the best for it because it kinda has a twin d-pad layout. on the saturn pad it tooks some gettin used too but i got it down now. s-video makes it crisp and nice. I broke 300,000 the other day it was awesome.

    There is a cheat on Robotron arcade game and also on the Williams greatest hits package on the PlayStation 1 on the brain's level pick up all the mommies that leave Mikey the kid alone make sure the brains don't process them into quarts but be able to kill all the brains off then pick up Mikey the last person to pick up the next level's nobody will fire a thing and it becomes a little easier
