Indie TERMINATOR 2D: No Fate (Multiplatform) **Halloween 2025

[HHJ]

In the Terminator Arcade gun game, if you tried to press the 1p start button with no quarters in it, Arnold would say in a loud voice NO WAY JOSE

This kinda shit is what people who didnt grow up in the arcade era are sorely missing

Yooo that shit was awesome! I went with my family to Universal and went on that 'ride' when I was like 12, I loved it

Yeah, the last time I was at Universal Orlando it was still there. I had a 7 day pass and I literally did it like 5-6 times per day. lol

Btw, that's the vastly inferior updated version with the shitty redone pre-show. They totally ruined it. Someone who wasn't James Cameron went in and "updated" the movie presentation bit with a new voice, new dialogue, recut bits, and "updated" effects. (I was horrified when I found out they did this. It made me sick. It's like Disney where they just can't stop fucking up classic attractions and making them worse rather than actually improving them. How about just leave it the hell alone)


Here is the classic masterpiece ORIGINAL pre-show. The one by James Cameron. (timestamped)

This game has very little replayability.

And now I feel a little bit vindicated.Nobody is talking about this game anymore. Nobody is documenting their hard mode runs or boss rush runs.The game was running on nostalgia and novelty and everyone has already moved on.

This in no way means it's a bad game, but the price for essentially 1 hour 50 of entertainment was a little silly.

I'm still playing it. But I also bought it knowing what to expect. It's an arcade game. You are meant to replay it over and over. I feel bad if you bought it thinking it was a massive RPG that would last dozens of hours for a single playthrough. They weren't hiding anything. You can watch the promotion videos, they were very clear about this being an arcade experience. I have a dozen or so hours in it so far, I've been having fun trying to get S rank in every level and doing things like boss rush mode and higher difficulty levels. I think Neon Inferno is the better run and gun game I've played this year but this is still a solid experience. I'd give it like a 7.5 or 8 out of 10.

And if we are criticizing the price please keep in mind that games like this back in the 90s were 60 to 70 dollars. My first console was Sega Genesis. All of the classics like Sonic and Streets of Rage were very short games and the price was far steeper. Sometimes I think we as kids did not appreciate the amount of money our parents were spending to make us happy. I think for 29.99 it's not a bad price, probably could have been 24.99 but I'm guessing they wanted to earn enough to cover the licensing fees.
