The 150 Best Online Flash Games

 

[daza_1973]

I live and grew up in southport and I have to admit most of my formative years were spent in seedy arcades, feeding my modest pocket money into such classic machines as Star Wars, Track and Field (see childhood arthritis) , Bomb jack, Nemesis, Ghosts n goblins, Etc etc .... oh what days -

 

[heatmeiser]

Crime Fighters was a classic too.

Kung Fu Fighter, rubbish now, but at the time was amazing. Plus the one near me you could get free games by shoving a lollypop stick down the slot.

 

[SLAVEN BILIC]

been playing games from that list for about 4 hours. mainly blocky, metal slug and pong. my head hurts.

 

[bluebloodinmyveins]

I have a site that can get any number of games if the Arcade was to return.

 

[NeoNaoNeo]

Voted both, purely because I could.
