So the gameroom isn't quite finished yet and I get a line on a nice 4 player game. I am mainly a classics man (Galaga, Ms. Pacman, Donkey Kong, etc.) but I was looking for a good multiplayer party game that would interest everyone. On top of that, many of my friends are sports fans, and more importantly Blues hockey fans.

Enter Craigslist yet again. I found a game that didn't sell for awhile so I made a lowball offer for it. The seller countered for $25 more and I accepted. The game in question is NHL Open Ice - 2 on 2 Challenge. I don't have any sports games so this is also a plus to attract non-video game players. It was sold with a broken button but I fixed that within minutes after I got it home.

This was the first game to enter the new gameroom after it was finished. The great part about this game is the year it was released in 1995, that's when Brett Hull was on the roster. I couldn't tell you why, but people really didn't seem to enjoy this game, despite the hockey theme. It didn't last very long in the Vintage Vault Arcade. Because of this fact alone. THIS GAME IS NOW SOLD.
