Internet Archive Brings Classic Arcade Games to Your Browser

If you've ever wished you could go back in time and play some of your favorite childhood arcade games, I have some amazing news for you.

The Internet Archive, which was founded back in 1996, is a non-profit digital library that provides free public access to collections of digitized materials, including websites, music, moving images, and nearly three million public-domain books, according to its Wikipedia page.

While that alone is awesome, the Internet Archive became infinitely more awesome over the weekend when they launched the Internet Arcade, which brings over 900 classic arcade games right to your web browser.

From classic titles like 'Super Pac-Man' and 'Missile Command' to lesser known titles like 'Route 16' and 'Snap Jack', the Internet Arcade will have you reliving your youth in no time. Odds are, your productivity will suffer immensely, too.

Sure, there are some bugs with a few of the games, which is to be expected, but that doesn't take away from how great it is to play some of the classic arcade games from yesteryear.

Plus, if you're more of a console kinda person, the Internet Archive also has The Console Living Room, which allows you to play some of your favorite console video games right on your web browser.

And, before you ask, the answer is 'Yes'. The Atari 2600 and Sega Genesis is available. Enjoy.
