DarkFate Terminator 2 Soft-Mod Released!

DarkFate Terminator2 Mod

DarkFate is a brand new soft-mod for the Arcade1Up Terminator 2 cabinet. This is a completely different release by a different developer than the NoFate mod previously released. This soft-mod more closely follows the methodology that we employ with the rest of our mods, so the process will feel familiar and the end result will be much more stable. Credit goes to JoeyThug and MrChet for this release.
