2. Buy a dedicated MAME cabinet -- or build your own.
There's a guilty pleasure in owning your own arcade unit, so why not treat yourself to a MAME arcade cabinet? You get bonus points if you build your own, creating the ultimate Bubble Bobble machine, complete with dedicated Bub and Bob artwork.

I'll never understand why people make such a big deal out of Halo. Instead of wasting your time playing three generic FPS games, why not play something utterly unique before you die like GOD HAND?
Wow........ There are pretty weird things to be done when your a gamer. I'd dress up as a video game character sure, only on Halloween. That'd be fun! xD
Ahaha. I've done the bit where you beat Professionals at their own game. XD A nine year old little girl wanders up to a fighting game at an arcade, surrounded by teenage boys who collect the character cards, know all the special moves, etc - I beat all but one of them. It was awesome.
Hell yea I took a sick week off for Metal Gear Solid 4 let gamers be gamers
Ok Seriously people need to shut up and let gamers be gamers and as for the imbecile who came on here with this" your all losers if your a gamer" stuff.. at least gamers dont have to shorthand "you're" we know how to spell and clearly you dont as for most of this stuff.. done it once or twice.. even dressed up as ermac from MK 3 and again for those of you who will come on here calling us losers first off your the idiot whos posting a comment just so you can try and look cool when all you realy look like its a freaking moron, go play in traffic or something...
What trash. Did you write this 10 minutes before deadline, or 20? How much did Xbox pay you anyway, because I really feel like wasting money on one right now...
ok some of dat stuff is **** like pretending to be a girl online or dat vibrator thing... hell no. but i agree with cosplay if it involves me bout to get it on wit another chick lol
ok. first, cosplay ftw secondly, the pick up line thing. wtf YES Resident Evil. Bu you wouldn't get the joke if you haven't read the books.
Just tell your parents you missed their 50th wedding anniversary because you were doing Baal runs, they'll understand. Is it just me, or does it seem like everything has something about Halo? HELLO! There's a LOT more out there. Anyway, I'm totally dressing up as Link for Halloween, what could be more fun? And as for the comment about female gamers... if the guys don't get it by now, don't bother trying to get them to. Just pretend you're a guy. As a female gamer, I have to say a lot of girls are terrible at video games. Sorry.
you'll never gain proper respect for cosplayers until you stand in our shoes and see how it feels. but im a proud nerd. and atleast i have the guts to express myself via public costumes :]
