Arcade Games of all time #12

This game is slightly more modern than what we have talked about but it is a blast to play but it is an arcade game and it deserves to be on this countdown. Hydro Thunder is an intense boat racing game that you can usually find at your local movie theatre or arcade like Chuck E Cheese. The over all goal of Hydro Thunder is to win the race no matter what. Hydro Thunder was created by Mid-Way game company in 1999. Hydro Thunder I think is famous for its actual race tracks especially the track of Flooded New York. This game is really simple it even does not have crazy complicated power ups, there are only 2 a red and blue booster. The blue booster is for a quick acceleration boost while the red booster is for a more continuos boost but the red boosters are really hard to find. Cool thing about this game is that there is a sub woofer inside of the seat which almost gives you a sort of in game experience. Though i have yet to see the sequel there is rumored to be a rare version out there called H2Overdrive so since it is a rare play why not spend that last quarter?
