I don´t think this tactic is to cheat and i dont think it is an easier tactic. But this tactic makes the game boring. The only real challenge is the coconuts thrown by those darn monkeys. The Castle Hall is by far the easiest level (IMO) and it is the only way to get an extra friend + 10.000 bonuspoints. So i dont understand why someone would prefer to hopp between just two levels? Oyamafamilys tactic of avoiding the monkeys and playing the rest of the levels is probably the easiest way to score high. I agree that the game would get boring without the monkeys! I like to hit every level at least once and then do Jacob's red-blue-red-red sequence the rest of the time.

I have 2 copies of Porky's. One has the logo embedded in the back and one does not. Both of my copies of MASH have the logo.

In the level I created, our guys have a bad case of the munchies from all their adventures in previous levels. They must make it to White Castle and scarf down some sliders in order to restore their health and move on to the next level. However, you must help each guy past two sinister obstacles. Black clouds appear, and suddenly a razor-sharp pendulum descends from a cloud and threatens to decapitate your man. You must shoot the rope holding the pendulum right where the rope's end attaches to the base of the pendulum. But that's not all you have to do before your guy gets to enter the White Castle and indulge in some savory sliders from heaven.........Rabid dogs, attracted by the delectable aroma of sizzling burgers, appear on the scene. Unfortunately, these dogs are invincible, but you can shoot their fangs out to render them harmless. Once past these obstacles, shoot the doorknob and enter the wonder that is White Castle!

nice canvas!

Sharp shootin! I tries to roll me score, arrr... but lost at 540ks I got the drawbridge blues. Thanks. Yeah, you got to make a pretty good time commitment to get beyond your high at this point

Bonusville! --- 103,350

Well, I'm getting close to the bonus, anyway............ 73,200

I'd hate to go to the proctologist with that story.......

This doesn't apply to Stella version 3.3, does it? I tried to use Stella Emulator version 3.3, and I verified that the Difficulty Settings DIDN'T change for "Crossbow": "B" position means Fast Cursor and "A" position, Slower Cursor. The Cursor is represented by WHITE SQUARE. I NOTED that Difficulty "B" is the default when I open another cartridge. Thanks for checking this out, Oyamafamily. So, if I'm understanding this correctly, I should be using difficulty "a" since I'm using Stella 3.3? (I've tried both difficulty settings more than once and honestly can't tell the difference --- I suck either way )

surprised nobody suggested Yar's Revenge yet. Also, Adventure, Millipede, and Buck Rogers Planet of Zoom. If you haven't checked them out already, there are a couple of threads up in which people list their top 10 (or more) favorite 2600 games. Those would be good to consult. Enjoy.

There is an arcade game where The 3 Stooges throw pies and break stuff. It's pretty good. Do you know if its available on MAME? I think i tried downloading MAME once but something went wrong. Yes, The Three Stooges In Brides Is Brides is available on Mame. There's a thread in the Arcade/Mame HSC about how to use the WolfMame emulator. Here's the link. See post #8 and #12 http://www.atariage.com/forums/topic/178339-easter-tournament-funspot-xii/ Thanks, I'll check it out and try downloading MAME again.....

Cool game! I can sink my teeth into this one. First posted score: 31,050

You made quick work of that bonus! Were you able to get past those damn monkeys?

Now that I've made a bloody mess of this thread, I'll start all over, this time at the Intermediate level: 185,400

[/b]I retract my scores! I just realized I was playing beginner level rather than intermediate (I was wondering how I was doing so well so early!) Sorry everyone!!! Roadrunner, please strike my score from the list at the top of the thread. Thanks.
