EGM: Now imagine you've reached the 10th stage, and you're on your last life. Once you die and you put another quarter in, you don't just continue from there--you start all over.

Parker: Are you serious?

EGM: Yep. When you lose all your lives, you have to start over. You don't keep going.

Parker: And you guys back then were OK with this?

Dude! It's Galaga! That was the king of games for me. Of course I wasn't OK with it, but what are you going to do? Hack the machine? :)

Mmmm, I rocked at that game. I don't know how many quarters I fed it, but I started recognizing the patterns... I got it down to the bottom once.

Taught pattern recognition! O:>
