With thousands of machines in bars around the country, Play Mechanix and Raw Thrills's Big Buck Hunter Pro is the stuff of legend. Between drunken rants and aggressive flirting, many a pub patron finds solace in this modern arcade classic, complete with plastic rifles. All it takes is a few quarters to blur into a few hours. Don't question its draw — the designer of Defender, Eugene Jarvis, took hand in creating this addictive beast. Big Buck Hunter Pro harkens back to those good ole days when "pick up and play" was part of the gamer's vernacular, no 20-minute tutorial required. Some thought arcades were dead, but Big Buck Hunter Pro proves that they’ve just switched turf.

Why is it so damn cool?!

Big Buck Hunter Pro celebrates the impossibly patriotic, something more domestic than even a super-sized double-cheeseburger and fries: The Great American Hunter. Clad in flannel and smeared with determination, these most manly of men stalk all sorts of prizes – bears, sharks, vampires. But it's their most classic of prey that we hold our muzzles to today, an homage to its antlered majesty. Its name is The Buck, and you are its Big, Badass Hunter – a consummate professional with rifle in tow, facial hair properly grizzled, and gut firmly tucked into overalls. Plus, it’s simply… fun.
