One new score for me, and my first sore thumbs score... Nova Blast - 45,050

Click on the graphic to see the up to date scores.

Usually don't hit the glitch until 3rd or later trip... Actually I take that back, I did ONCE get it on real hardware, about 6 years ago at about 24-25k.

I dont notice the "glitch" on real hardware, but I do notice it on emulation, so much so it must give the processor a divide by 0 error or something that causes an epic fail in the game, cause the score immediately appears once the glitch hits that crashes the game, so it seems Imagic knew about it. I'm trying to determine what precisely causes it to glitch (if its a spot like Yars Revenge) or something else.

no problem ed

On Nova Blast, you can use your energy beam to replace the shield on your cities below (even if the shield is temporary, it has saved my arse from time to time)

Here is my opening salvo (Demon Attack's score is low due to the emu bugging out and crashing on the 5th trip back to the moon) Scores: Ice Trek: 18,950 (damn ice bridge on trip 6, almost impossible to keep it going) (2nd) Demon Attack: 13,224 (game crashed, couldn't continue (had 3 lives) (2nd) Nova Blast: 35,000 (3rd) Overall: 99,348 (2nd)

Jacob, make sure ur using the latest Nostalgia emulator, if not the emulation is not perfect so it doesnt detect ending the level before you detecting being off the bridge.

np, if I remember right I posted that rom during HSC1

I personally prefer the 4k model of LNC as I like to hide out in the long tunnels, and pressing towards a wall will stop Lupin in the tunnel. The 6k model does not allow that to occur, but to each their own.

Limbo has one by simply walking left on the game start (Wrong Way achievement)

The next game is actually a three pack of games, all from the boys at Imagic Game #1 - Ice Trek The Youth begged the Elder, "Tell me again of the ancient ones who knew no far, of Vail the Avenger and Kalkron the Terrible. Tell about the theft of the lights that glister and blaze in the night, and of the new Ice Age it threatened. Tell me of the Avenger's many trials - of countless caribou and the majestic Wildlife Goddess, fragile ice bridges and the spectacular Ice Palace!" "Another day, young one. Now you must rest." With eyes closed tight against time, the Youth slept. Upon rising, he was clothed in ancient garb. A single mission consumed all thought: free the lights of night from Kalkron the Terrible! So began a legendary trek... Skill Level : Player's Choice. Game #2 - Nova Blast "Emergency! Nova 1 to Ground Control! I'm the last of the fleet! They've all gone down!" "We read you, Nova 1. Are the Capsuled Cities still standing?" "Affirmative. But air enemies and Water Walkers are moving in." "Status of Nova 1. Any damage?" "I can take about ten more hits, Ground Control." "Proceed on course, Nova 1. Save our Capsuled Cities at any cost! You're our last hope. Over." "I read you loud and clear, Ground Control. Over and out." Skill Level : Player's Choice. Game #3 - Demon Attack Earth lies in grave peril! Winged terror screams across mute space. Legions of creatures bombard Earth's final outpost: Moon Station Tranquility. Intercept and destroy these garrisons which breed destruction - or Earth is doomed! Survive the demon attack - then go on the offensive! Your Laser Cannon lifts off the lunar surface. You seek to track down Pandemonium, flagship of the Demon Armada. Its awesome bulk seems to fill space with menace. It spews vast armies of eternal night from its fiery Core. Attack! End the tyranny of the Demon Armada. You must prevail against monumental odds. Skill Level : Player's Choice. Scoring will occur for each individual Imagic title, as well as a combined scoring for best play thru all three Imagic titles. In addition, Imagic had it's answer to the Activision club, "Numb Thumbs". Each game was given an "Experts Club" goal for each of the games created. If a member sent in a photo showing an on-screen score higher than the standard for that game, the player received an iron-on decal. If a member sent in three photos from different games, he or she would receive an "Imagic Expert" t-shirt. And for six photos, the member received an Imagic Experts Club jacket. So for any scores meeting/exceeding the Experts Club Scores, the player will earn bonus points for the HSC. For 1 game - 2pts For 2 games - 5pts For 3 games - 10pts Those are total points, not cumulative for the bonus. The target scores are: Ice Trek - 25,000pts Nova Blast - 45,000pts Demon Attack - 20,000pts Scoring for the cumulative scoreboard will be 2x(Ice Trek+Demon Attack)+Nova Blast=Final Score If you missed games 1-3, this is the perfect time to get in and make your start. If you are low on the board, use this session to aim for the top, and if your there, you can make a long distance on your competition. Deadline for entries is : June 5th, 2011 @ 1:00 am Eastern time.

The easiest way in the world to tell if u have the 4k or 6k rom is the 6k has both the INTV and Data East Copywrite information at the bottom of the display, while the 4k only has 1.

The game will be posted by the end of the day with the same two week timeframe for play. I'm toying with bonus points (ala the 2600 hsc) Oh yah, I'm the new HSC head here for the best system around, the Intelli As for that wheel, each cart is on a slot and will be spun soon to be a random determination of game 4

Thats so like you Jacob... Only at 30,150 myself I hate this game on the VCS (love it on the arcade machine however)

Well, we've now seen 2 of the three ways this game can end (death of last life and time hitting zero)... anyone up for #3? BTW Congrats on the score (even more congrats for being just under mine hehehe j/k)

Get over and control Harry in Pitfall! then Love to have ya!
