Definitely!

But my first experience with it was when I bought a Japanese Dreamcast.  I think it was HotD2.  "Please be safe, G!"

Great games.

How old are you dude?  Almost everyone aged 25-40, has played or at least heard of the House of the Dead series. 

I remember playing it all the time when I was in middle school at the local aladdins castle.  I don't know if I ever even beat the 2nd level though, cause this game was brutal!  One of the worst quarter suckers of the 90s!

Yes. It was one of the original (I forget the word for it), games that was designed to only let you progress past a certain point based on how much you paid it.  That was the concept in a nutshell.   I don't think there has ever been anyone to beat the game on one continuous play through though.

Well that was basically the point of Arcade, wasn't it? :D

What kinda sucked was when they emulated Arcade games like that to the consoles where you paid the prize of a full game for em (like 60 bucks back then - I don't even know) and then at home on your console you walked through the entire game in like 45 minutes. :D
