Just a reminder, cdg meetup is Wednesday this week... not Tuesday (today).

Meet onsite and Discord.  There is an interested button on the Discord invite to show you're coming. So far 3 are interested.

Also, you can additionally post up in this thread as well. I hope to see you here!

I've started on this game on mobile a few times and while I do love it and may possibly get it the Switch version at some point, it came out a little close to Pokemon Legends ZA so I haven't gotten it yet.

Every console I own, if Ms Pacman is available, I will pursue it, find it, and purchase it. It is the best of the Pacman series, IMO.

Quote from: BLUEVOODU on November 01, 2025, 01:38:11 PMI got ya @retro junkie i was more kidding based off your words of "never was in a local arcade."  ;D  While I knew what you meant, it also sounds like you were never in a local arcade. I was kidding with you 

Really, to be honest, when the arcade came into their prime, I was at a point in my life where I didn't spend any time around them. I was in occasionally but my interests were elsewhere. (hint) I got married in 77. When I did go into the arcade it was for playing Starblade inside one of those sit down cockpits. And there was Daytona or San Francisco Rush. So you are partly right, I was never there in a sense. My gaming really began on a Commodore 64. My real gaming days were at home.
Man I remember playing Stun Runner on a sit down cycle cabinet thing. That was so awesome.

PC Gaming and Platform / Left 4 Dead 2 Updates
Last post by BLUEVOODU - November 02, 2025, 03:18:57 PM
It seems there were Left 4 Dead 2 updates done in 2020 called the Last Stand which appear to be more community driven.  There were also minor updates in Feb 2025 called out on Steam.  This includes new achievements, campaigns, survival maps and bug fixes!  I think we are going to try to get all the new  (and old) achievements.

We have been recently playing.  Check out the last Thursday Night Game Session from 10-30-25:

Also, check out the old has anyone been playing Left 4 Dead 2 topic from the yester years:
https://www.chickendinnergaming.com/forum/pc-gaming-and-platform/left-4-dead-2-anyone-still-play

From this thread, @ThravRande and a few others mentioned it would be fun to get together again.  I know this was several years ago... However, we are trying to get others back into playing a versus or even additional people to play campaigns as mentioned in the last CDG Thursday Game Night topic.  It would be cool to get you back for that, Thrav!

Have you got the achievements or played the updates? 

Thoughts?  Comments?  Post it up!!

We ended up playing Left 4 Dead 2 and StarCraft 2 Special Forces

@SpartanEvolved and I played a quick round of Counter-Strike 2 and got curb stomped thanks to the goobers we had on our team lolz

As mentioned, I'd love to get @MegaDrive20XX @targetrasp @CreepinDeth and I believe we used to play with @Zidart and @HylianSeven as well. It would be awesome to get a group going here and there

Also - the the new Left 4 Dead 2 topic:

General Discussion / Tron: Ares
Last post by BLUEVOODU - November 02, 2025, 07:35:46 AM
Tron: Ares came out October 10, 2025. I was (am) very interested in this movie and lost track of release date with many lift events going on right now. This movie looked awesome and has Nine Inch Nails in the soundtrack!  The songs in the trailer sounded awesome as well.

I have not read many reviews as I don't want it spoiled and also get tired of the negativity.  I'm pumped to see this movie!  It looks like there aren't many showings left lol... so I need to get on the ball.

Has anyone else checked out this movie?  Are you excited to see it?  Waiting until it's released to the masses? What do you think about the soundtrack?

Thoughts, comments... post it up!

Bumping up an old thread.

In several topics, I talk about my oled switch and buying it in 2021 but never opening it. However, I bought the Switch 2.  So I opened the OLED Switch, hooked it up for a month and then... put it away after moving to the Switch 2.  This was to ensure it had a little play before going to the Switch 2 lol.  Yes yes... 1st world problems.

lol the OLED Switch is great ... but the Switch 2 definitely is a decent leap ahead of the OLED Switch.

Arcade / Ms. Pac-Man
Last post by BLUEVOODU - November 01, 2025, 06:01:25 PM
While Ms. Pac-Man was not my 1st arcade experience, it definitely was a major experience in terms of overall gameplay in arcades, restaurants... AND even dentist/Orthodontist Appointments (yes, not kidding).  The Dentist/Orthodontist had Donkey Kong Jr and Ms. Pac-Man.  That was pretty cool and you don't see that any more these days.

There was one at the old Chi-Chi's restaurant that used to be in town.  We would wait in line (back in the day) to get in ... and they had a Ms. Pac-Man sit down machine to play!  I put a ton of quarters in this machine... and got pretty decent at playing Ms. Pac-Man.

To this day, I have fond memories of playing Ms. Pac-Man.  What about you?  I literally had hours upon hours into this game straight in the arcade.  I held some high scores for awhile lol... at the "localized" arcade.  :great: It's been a long time since I have played this game on any format, but the old sit down cabinet arcade style game (with original controls) is by far my favorite.

Check out the following thread and post up your 1st arcade experiences!

WOW, it's been five year since 3d all stars was released, where's the time gone. Just put this together after griping about the poor showing for the 40th anniversary realizing this came on the 35th anniversary
