There's a lot of arcade game slash popcorn dispensers and things that we could get into. Yeah. So let me why don't you tell us what you nominated and what we'll be talking about in this episode. Well, I propose that we discuss Half Life 2 Survivor. That's what Jeff Probst in it, right? No, no, no. Unfortunately, this is an outlast, outwits or outsurvivor or what is still…
... this would rank near the top of the list of most obscure games that have ever been in an arcade. I think it's in the top one. I think it's the I think it's the most obscure game or ever. Maybe not ever. But so far, I've told it's it's if you say that I'll say challenge accepted. And we'll that wasn't a gauntlet. And they made an egg clock game that they only released a half of, you know, half of one unit only made its market. There's a lot of arcade game slash popcorn dispensers and things that we could get into. Yeah. So let me why don't you tell us what you nominated and what we'll be talking about in this episode. Well, I propose that we discuss Half Life 2 Survivor. That's what Jeff Probst in it, right? No, no, no. Unfortunately, this is an outlast, outwits or outsurvivor or what is still outsurviv. Oh, yeah, I mean, you can. It's essentially a side story half life side story. It occurs at the same time. The story of the game is you're another survivor in the half life world. And you are existing going through the same trials as Gordon, but you never really cross paths. You go to Ravenholm, you go to you take the airboat through ...

different and everything. And then the thing that caught my attention on it was the marquee on the top of the view looks normally like on the Street Fighter four once was like a clear, like acrylic, like a clear plexi thing. But the one that he had, like he walked behind it, and it had been flipped over backwards, I guess they converted the cab. But it had it said like half life to I'm like, what the heck is this? Like, did somebody put a computer in it and just put like a keyboard on the mouse, and they just…

monitor from Felix. Luckily, I was able to do that. So it limped along for a little bit as you know, my type X three multi cabinet. And then I was like, you know, I'm just gonna I'm gonna throw caution to the wind. If the universe wants this to be a half life cabinet again, we're gonna buy gum, we're gonna make it a half life cabinet again. And so I started looking around on Yahoo auctions, Japan, I was looking for different pieces of the the half life cabinet itself, there's still advertisements for it…

the view licks. So knowing that it's opened up a lot of possibilities for me to go out and try and find more setups. That said, I actually I'm about halfway through completing another setup. So that I can actually do multiplayer half life two in my arcade. That's that's going to be incredible. So one of the other questions that I that I had for you was I know again, I've never played this cabinet. I've watched gameplay footage of it. But from what I read was the you've got two joysticks and two foot pedals,…

over there? I need some measurements. Um, no, these guys can't count to three. So I don't trust them with with anything, you know, you know, joking aside, I don't want to bother valve valve had very little to do with this with this port. Case in point, not only was Half Life too ported, Counter Strike was ported to the arcade and left for dead. So left for dead was actually a Taito Type X3 release. And the cabinet itself had a Wii nunchuck for the movement and a mouse for aiming. We do have a couple of those…

of the other options look if you're in there and you're going to try and and you know steal half life three source code and and whatnot you may as well try and play that game too find their game room play it you know you're you're already committing felonies want to have some fun while you're doing it so i have a question for everybody including lemony will there ever be a half life three what do you guys think no you know i'm i'm getting i'm with the new gabe cube aka steam box you call it a gabe cube yeah dude…

by far it's it's pretty bad and it looks like they just didn't finish and we're like yeah it's fine just ship it it's kind of rough lemony it's all good points and it may happen i just won't believe it until i see it at this point well i mean we've been told so many times yeah we've been told so many times a half life three is coming and you know i made a joke at the very beginning of the the podcast that the valve can't count to three so why would i trust a company that can't count to three and it's very it's…

not Linux. Well, Lindbergh, Jared's a fan of the Lindbergh, that's a Linux cabinet or a Linux board set. But a lot of people just aren't as into it, just because it doesn't have that prestige of being a, you know, dedicated PCB or custom piece of silicon. Yeah, it's just it's, it's a hard drive. And, you know, a program versus a PCB with ROMs and all that stuff. But the half life one, just to go into a little more detail, the, you know, when you when you look up when you type the word view licks, you're going to…

boat well coolest decision ever rainbow so i guess uh from what i i've read and what i've seen video wise the the basic gameplay you can choose there's three different modes story mode battle mode and mission modes we've kind of talked about story mode is an abbreviated version of half life two um split into chapters i guess it looks like it's broken into 10 different chapters and then kind of just has the storyline chopped up uh here and there to to fit in arcade style you know some of the plot line might be…
00:45:31 - 00:46:04
... You know. But if they thought it would be successful they jumped on it pretty hard. I mean these these particular games must have been very successful in Japan because not only did they release the Half-Life 2 Survivor like I said they also released a Counter-Strike cabinet that legitimately used a mouse and keyboard. They learned their lesson. They they released three different iterations of first-person shooters that have the same type of control scheme. ...

... And that's really more of like an arcade kind of shooter. It's not like super accuracy stuff, but man like the control scheme is so important in games like this. Well I wonder if, and I don't know this had anything to do with it, but just the reception of Half-Life 2 and those type of games in Japan versus here. And if some of that was the reason for them trying it, then trying a different control scheme, them trying, like knowing they're not going to probably you know release as globally. ...
00:51:20 - 00:51:52
within the game where obviously they tried I think probably too much to make it appeal to users like the tutorials that are throughout the game yeah you know making sure that they know how to do this and know how to do it again and know how to do it a third time before you get through and I know that's a lot of what the game is doing like when you're walking through the hallways and half life too and it's you know kind of gets you situated but I imagine and Lemny can you know as the only person that's played…

... That went to, uh, overtime and, uh, there was just a fantastic drag move that, uh, the eventual gold medal score did on the last defender. She, she drug it, uh, which like a deke, which is where you move the puck with your stick, you know, but she did like a, she was going around the left of the defender and she got the defender to turn around the opposite way. ...

275 bucks which isn't that crazy for a board with pops and everything. And it's it's a really interesting game. This is a game that I have not been able to one cc but I can get to the very last boss and then I die there because the game is a cheating pile of garbage.
