Galaga is on that list. But if you needed to put in a quarter every 30-45 seconds, you suck. And really, all those games required was a bit of practice.

I have no problem with old people making these lists, so long as they've played the games and lived through most of the late great arcade era. Better than some snot nosed kid who's arcade virginity was popped playing Dance Dance Revolution. (Which should also get a mention based on just how popular it was.) And from some of the more modern games on the list, like Golden Tee Golf, I think they mostly got it right.
