MIDWAY![edit]

Hey guys - I've been working at Midway Games in San Diego since October 2003. The Monkeystone web page is very out of date and Monkeystone isn't even in operation anymore - we shut it down 2 months ago. I'm working on Gauntlet for PS2,XBOX and PC right now. Search the web and you'll see. --Romero

I'll post a message on the talk page of Monkeystone Games to this comment, but I doubt very many people watch that article. So it may be a while until someone gets around to updating it. I might get around to it sometime, but time is sparse.

BTW, I added your sig to the post above, but you should do it whenever you post a comment. You can do this with 3 or 4 tildes (~~~ or ~~~~). The latter is generally preferred, since it also leaves a timestamp. :-) — Frecklefoot | Talk 16:32, Mar 22, 2005 (UTC)

Chrono Trigger[edit]

I find it amusing that Romeo's favourite game was Chrono Trigger, as I always assumed he'd like FPSs or action adventure games Red dwarf (talk) 03:30, 6 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
