Skippy B. Coyote Posted April 15, 2017 Share Posted April 15, 2017 Huge thanks to bradd1978 for mailing me a new cartridge connector for my Atari 7800 to get it working again just in time to participate in this round! Pole Position II is one of those "must own" classics for the Atari 7800 and the original Pole Position on the 2600 is one of my all time favorite games for the system, so I was really looking forward to playing in this round. I only had about an hour to spend playing each game today but I'm pretty pleased with my Pole Position II score, even if I wasn't able to finish the race. I did get a bit frustrated playing the original Pole Position though, because my all time high score in that game is 60,260 so I was really hoping I could get over 60,000 again. But alas, it was not to be. Still, with limited time to play the games this round I think I did alright. Pole Position II (Seaside Track): 63,790 Pole Position (B/B Difficulty, Default Settings): 59,110 Bonus: My copy of Pole Position II is one of the 1986 versions with the spring loaded dust cover. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skippy B. Coyote Posted April 16, 2017 Share Posted April 16, 2017 Practice makes perfect! After another hour or so of practice this evening I was able to finish the race in Pole Position II, and do it without crashing even once. I think I'm gonna call it good for the round with this score. Pole Position II (Seaside Track): 68,300 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
