  1. OE HSC 2024- Star Wars - Death Star Battle (default) eegt97 37,046 BUSTED New- RB5200 38,331
  2. This month, we march forward in 1984, with probably our best game of that year. Robotron. Play on defaults, using real 5200 systems, and Atari Mfg controls. Use of period aftermarket sticks allowed, with a -1 HSC pt penalty. Only modern exceptions are flashcarts/SD loaders, running original Roms. Pics preferred, but not required, except for HSC wins and records. Round ends when month does. You'll need the finger rest, for a future month. Current HSC record- Bust it for a bonus point! Robotron 2084 -(Level 1) (2 Controllers) rubeon 689,200 Current scores- Current Standings- DamonicFury - 21 RB5200 - 21 jeremiahjt - 16 nitrohepcat - 14 RangerG - 12 rubeon - 10 zylon - 8 Robotron 2084.BIN
  3. It always does the heart good, seeing records still set using original equipment. Exactly that, was done here, by RB5200 in bagging this month's win.😎 Thanks to all who played, and next game coming up... Final scores- 38,331 RB5200 +1+11=12 19,019 DamonicFury +10 7,184 jeremiahjt +9 2,505 nitrohepcat +8 1,686 RangerG +7
  4. This is one of my 5 faves, and I've explored it extensively, trying all sorts of things. No matter what you use, it comes down to skill and timing. If you play too good, those bugs will activate, so I never ruled against them. I don't run this often in OE, as a month of it is just too much, lol. Clearly one of the 5200's top shining stars, even today.
  5. It does tend to alter the progression of time. You get kind of a "matrix" feel in playing. It takes a few consecutive near flawless laps, to trigger those. 211 is first, and if you complete one like that, 227 is next. Otherwise, I use full speed and cut corners to maximize time.
  6. 211, that's sooo slow, lol. It can't happen on qual lap, only in actual race. Wish I still had that pic, but I used cx52 with old rev 7 flexi. There's two patterns of cars for the qual lap, one is easier than the other. At least for me, anyways.
  7. Been a long time since we ran this, so in the spirit of 1984, we'll run Death Star Battle for 5200, on defaults. Use real 5200 systems, and Atari Mfg controls, use of other period aftermarket controls costs -1 hcs pt penalty. The only modern exceptions are flashcarts/SD loaders, running original Roms. Pics preferred, but not required, except for HSC wins and records. Round ends when month does. Shortest round of the year, but y'all get an extra day, so it's a split. Current HSC record, bust it for a bonus point!

  8. Well, our year begins with former several-time champ squeaking out the win, in a round of several tight battles. 😎👍 I never get past the diagonal tire level. Some things never change, lol. Thanks to all who played, and continue to keep this little piece of the 80's alive and well.

  9. If only a stage fire select was in there. Guided for the horizontals, and straight on the verticals. Even toggle on/off function.
  10. Our first game of 2024, was one of the earlier releases of 1984, on our 5200's, Megamania. Play on defaults, with player's choide of straight or guided shots. Use real 5200 systems and Atari mfg controls. -1hsc pt penalty for use of period aftermarket sticks, such as the Wico, or Comp-Pro. Only modern exceptions are flashcarts/SD loaders, running an original Rom. Pics preferred, but not required, except for HSC wins and records. Round ends when month does. ** added an alternate Rom for cx52 only** Current HSC record- Bust it for a bonus point!

  11. OE 2023 trophy goes to RB5200 with 135 season points
  12. well, our what-if round, and thus, our year comes to a close, with RB5200 taking both 🏆👍😎 Thanks to those who play along, and make this timewarp possible. Congratulate our new champ, when y'all see him. New for 2024, Comp-Pro sticks also allowed, under the -1 deal.
