| 2003-02-15 | Agent RuenOne | My last secret mission to locate arcade classics was in Reno, Nevada, January 15th 2003. I talked to many locals and people visiting the casinos, but I did not get many leads, so after hours of coming up clueless, I went deep-cover and began searching casino after casino for hidden arcades. I wondered into Harrah's and pretended to enjoy gambling so security wouldn't notice me. After playing a few boring "games," I saw my chance to make my move. I asked for the "bathrooms" and "pay-phones" knowing they would send me walking all through the place. So I'm walking around on the second floor and a younger security gaurd spots me, but I hold my cool and walk right by him down this long hall, I could smell it!! I knew I was there! And low and behold at the end of the hall was a nice size arcade with 4 classics. I knew security would be on to me, so being short on time, I picked Dig-Dug, it worked like a charm! And the machine was in great condition. I blew up as many round dudes and dragons as I could, made it to the 3rd level and died, which would have been fine, but I was jumping up and down going crazy!! (No games were hurt in this mission, I am strongly against all arcade abuse and vandalism!!)Security came in from all directions, I jumped through the window and activated my hover pack, a few scratches but I'm okay. Thats pretty much how it went down, till next time!! RuenOne signing out |
