Attract Mode's east coast warrior, Matt Hawkins, is curating a fine selection of games next month at Babycastles, NYC's best indie game arcade. Most of the games will be there all month, but the opening party is the must-attend if you live anywhere near New York. It's also the only night you can check out Super Hypercube due to all the specialized hardware involved. Check out the details below. Hmmm, I wonder how cheap the flights are from LA to NYC right now…

After 3 days of being immersed in videogames at E3, I decided to unwind with Derek and John at one of my favorite spots... Arcade Infinity. Not only has AI been stocking an impressive collection of new releases (Action Cop, BlazBlue, King of Fighters XII), but they've also cycled in some of my old favorites like Project Justice and Final Fight.
There was one game, however, above everything else I played that night, that I knew I had to share with you.
Yes, you just saw a Nazi tank fight some buff guy with a limp mohawk. The gallery at the bottom of the post shows an even better match up: the tank versus a nun wielding dual revolvers. The World War II inspired brawler is called Akatsuki Blitzkampf Ausf Achse. It's ridiculous, fun and actually a pretty solid fighter. If you are anywhere near LA, I recommend you stop by and drop in a few quarters.

Back in 2001, Rosemarie Fiore took long exposure photographs of classic arcade games with beautiful results.
