    The first I ever played was the original Space invaders in '79. It was wheeled outside a shop in Dublin on a daily basis. Didn't last long with the rain. Doh!

    Remmebr playing that Star Wars arcade game (that you sat in and it had hand controls) where all the graphics were Tron-like lattices where the AbbeyMall/Epicurean Food place is now.

    Didn't get a chance until late in life but Metal Gear Solid and Resident Evil 3:Nemesis. Beaten them both more times than I can remember.

    The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the LORD your God.
