It was my first time ever going to cedar hills for anything.

New extreme machine in Lake Oswego... about a minute from my house,  or from the Lower Boones Ferry I-5 exit.

At an arcade / bowling alley / food / pool lounge place. They use a card system, games cost $0.75 most of the time but they have happy hours (gotta find out when they are) where all the arcade machines are half price. Pads are pretty much perfect, volume is a bit low, though they might change it I haven't asked yet. They also have: Time Crisis 4, House of the Dead 4, Target Terror Gold, some loud motion simulator roller coaster ride, and a decent amount of attractive female employees.

Lake Oswego finally has an arcade... 2 Years after I stopped hoping for one -_-

Err, better mention- the place is called Players. Take Boones Ferry East from the I5 and it's just a couple blocks down the road on the right. Across the street from Carls Jr/Taco Bell - next door to Walgreens.

Doubt anyone will ever go there but me though

I dunno, man, I'm not sure if I can handle $.375 a game on DDR.  That's seventeen and a half cents more than normal. ;P

People in Lake Oswego can afford to play DDR at any price.

I wish I had a hae-penny.

What is that, Gaelic?

Something like that.  It's a half a cent.

AKA $.005.

ohhh, then you could wish on the wishing star for, for, TWO hae pennys. yay for hae pennys and there milloin dollar uslessnes.

Please download Firefox 2 ASAP.

lol, Steven doesn't have a computer.

All he spelled wrong is million and one.  It's grammar and conventions where he fails.

Steve, you've seen that movie too?

pennies. their.

He's homophobic.  That's too close to penis.

he forgot the apostrophe in penny's

^college student

I just want to say that Century 17 went to shit. The machine isn't even on any more.

jesus that sucks, all this time I was hoping to go play a dollar a Didder hhahahaha. if you mean the animaniacs movie then yes, yes I have... and I think we should go find kevin fuckin smith and rock the god damn casbah.

Flaunt would infer that it's a positive  :lol:

There was a time when I was given a hard time because I was the young guy.  I'm merely completing the circle of life (queue lame lion king music).  I'm sure Tofu knows it's in good phun.

DDR at Players in Tualitin.  Their website is http://www.eatdrinkbowlplay.com/

It's like Bullwinkle's only not.  They have bowling, pool, a bar, a dining area, private party rooms, 47 42 inch plasma's and an arcade.  They have a DDR extreme plus that is 1.00 for 3 songs but during happy hour it's half price.

Milwaukie currently has:

DDR Extreme (20 cents)
GF 11th (20 cents)
DrumMania (15 cents)
Jumping Jackpot (20/40/60 cents)

They're supposed to get DanceManiaX soon too.  SHOW THAT YOU LIKE ONLY HAVING TO GO TO ONE ARCADE TO GET YOUR KICKS AND PLAY AT MILWAUKIE GUYS.

what the FUCK, GF 11th for 20 cents? Is drummania just DM1st?

edit: wow, I completely missed something so I'mma just edit this out



YUP

DDREx was off this weekend.  Probably won't be there next weekend.

20 cents! Man...maybe I should have stuck around Portland longer instead of moving back home (Central Cali). lol.
But ITG's pads @ Tilt never seemed to work well. Maybe it was just 'cause I was so out of practice. *shrug* I didn't like the atmosphere much either. I remember my second visit to Tilt (and experienced similar events after), I was playing and some jerks started touching me from behind while I played, I told them to stop, but instead the group just became more rude, to the point the guy working in the arcade had to kick them out. Thanks, whoever u were.
On top of the pads, the mean onlookers, the BRIGHT light that seemed to want to blind u, I stopped going.
I never could find Ground Kontrol. I followed the address in the phone book, and tried to call; I wound up going to the location, only for it to be non-existent. The phone books lie, I tell ya! They LIE! They LIE, like rugs! LOL

I'm thinking about moving to Seattle now. Heh. Anyone here think that's a bad idea...ITG-wise?
I didn't like reading off itgfreak that the machine in Seattle doesn't have a USB! Of course all the others in WA do, but for someone who relies on public transportation and my feet, that doesn't sound thrilling.
Also..the pad ratings were awful!
I should post this in the Seattle forum. Maybe it's not such a far trip from [area of choice] as it seems on the map. =)

Thanks ITG of Portland, for at least...some...fond memories.
I did enjoy the city. It's very green and your transportation system is WONDERFUL! oh heaven.

@ phylicia: From a discussion back in..what...February? (I didn't have a computer while in Oregon. Just the library. Nice one btw), I was in North Portland. Although, I realized shortly after living there that the 500$ a month rent for a tiny room was a rip off (for Portland prices)! What I'd give to pay THAT now!!! ok...side tracked.
Anyway...wish we could have met. Maybe one day I'll go back to Portland and find this infamous Ground Kontrol. Where in the world was it?! I probably walked passed it a million times. lol. Silly me. 3.5 months was too short a stay.

I kinda miss Portland. :roll:

Does anyone remember the ~2-3 week period in 2003 when Gateway Wunderland had all of this at once:
Pump It Up Premiere 2
DDR 4th Mix Solo
DDR 5th Mix
Dance Maniax
Dance Maniax 2nd Mix Append J-Paradise
Guitar Freaks 3rd Mix
Guitar Freaks 4th Mix
Para Para Paradise 1st Mix Plus
Beatmania 6th Mix
?

Just thought I'd reiterate how far downhill Wunderland has gone. Pop'n Stage, Techno Motion, and Mambo a Go Go were pretty alright games too. I wonder how long it will be before they gotten rid of all their music games.
