PLAYER 2 NEEDS FOOD BADLY!

I miss the old days when you could go into a video game arcade, find that guy who was always playing the four-player Gauntlet game and pump quarters into it to play beside him. The idea of cooperative play with someone you'd never met before was pleasing. I had met that guy before and he was a prick. He thought people loved to play along side of him because he rocked at all the games. I preferred to select all the remaining characters and take off running, deserting my hopeful companion. If you know the game, you'd know why you had to run; never walk away.

Gauntlet was truly the first game that you didn't have to be any good at to win. You could have no natural skill, no playing ability, but if you had enough money, you would automatically be awesome at it because you'd have lots of life. In other words, it was the first game that was exactly like real life.

I want the sound, "Green Elf needs food..." as my email alert.
