Title: Polybius anyone? Post by: UnwoundS3GA on April 17, 2014, 07:47:01 pm Does anyone believe in this game!??? I've researched it multiple times, and I can't make out if it's real or not!!???
Richie Knucklez just posted this video on YouTube, and I don't get it? It looks like a Midway cab (Pac-Man) shape. John do you know about this!? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iEPDixwaoKM Title: Re: Polybius anyone? Post by: John's Arcade on April 17, 2014, 08:06:44 pm It's fake.

Post by: Mr_Rampage on April 21, 2014, 07:05:39 pm It's most likely fake, I would however point out that I am the kind of guy who'd make one just to have in the arcade so that when people came in and saw it they'd @#$%! a brick. It'd be funnier than heck to listen to them go "whoa dude when i was playing it i felt all kinds of weird man" in the back of my head id be laughing so hard knowing the truth.

now I understand the world of desired collector fakes, paintings, ect... but a full on arcade cabinet ? what's the point, those in the know... know its fake, an those who don't are like its a dead 80's cabinet they never heard of... where is the payoff ?

In my case its an excuse to make a cabinet from scratch that id probably make into a multicade in the guise of a polybius cabinet. I'm still a firm believer in practicality.
