Once upon a time, three-letter demigods would etch their names in the high score lists of arcade games the world over. Defeating wave after wave of attackers, these heroes of another era possessed a skill that brought down the most sophisticated machines of the day. Their hand-eye coordination was a wonder to behold.

Alas, as the great arcades fell to ruin and rust, so did the masters. Forced into mundane worlds of management and simulation, they became slow and dim-witted; the skill of the true gamer rarely tested... until now.
