 As some have already noticed, the arcade has gone missing today. We are in the middle of replacing our old arcade system with a new, more robust one. Currently, we are just testing out the games and making sure the system is functioning as we had hoped it would. During this process, we felt it was best to NOT carry over the scores from the past arcade system. Sorry. We had A LOT of 'drive-by' high scores and we wanted to give everyone that calls this place home a good shot at some arcade fame.
The new arcade allows for easy tourney support (up to 8-players), a whole bunch of new leaderboards, PM notifications, High scores under your avatar, etc. We hope that this new system will help foster some cool arcade action here at PGL. Whether it's just some friendly tourneys to competitions for free SWAG. Whatever we can come up with. It shouldn't be long now until you all can compete for high score icons and some braggin' rights. All scores will be reset once we go live with the arcade. Peench just wanted a head start on everyone else. 
Sorry for the down time and stay tuned.

| How about making it so you have to have have more than just 2 posts to play the games. I've seen a few of the high-scorers/drive-byers here on other boards as well. I guess they just travel around and inflate their ePenor. | |

| Not a bad idea Namehater. What do the rest of you all think? Higher than 5? Is 20 a good round number? | |

This looks pretty cool, but I'm confused. I've never used the arcade function. Is it something you play here on the site, or is it something you play on the xbox, and then your scores post here? | |

Join Date: Sep 2006 Location: Nazareth, PA Age: 35 | I'm all for raising the required post count for the arcade. Yes, it's an area with Flash games. So far it's looking fairly good. I have only encoutered one issue with a game. Black grass in Rabbit Hunter. But, it's playable. I lloking for a fix though and some more games. We're trying to test out the Tourney function as well. It shouldn't be long now. | |
