@McKong I've added an ATR to the 1st post with the Marius PAL & his fixed flag graphic NTSC file versions Looks like you've beaten the PAL record already

 

Things to look out for in >>>Pole Position>>>:

Had the 211Mph bug(?) but I'm now thinking this may be a feature(!) - It happened after I'd overtaken two cars down the middle of the Final Straight - I felt that 'pull' on the car so am wondering if they coded in some sort of slip-stream feature to give you a turbo boost?

 

Managed to pull off an overtake on the inside kerb was very pleased with that. Reading the posts from last time PP was played here you can overtake on the outside kerb if you're lucky!

 

PAL users be careful not to clock up too many seconds on the 8-lapper as the timer bug can come into play - can't remember how many seconds this is?!

 

The 3 courses are all the same? There's only the one corner that is really tricky so break or use a bit of inside kerb to slow yourslef down.

 

Change from Low to Hi gear (pull back on stick) at 105mph - can't remember who it was who crawled round the track at 105mph! might have been you littlemanjack and push forward to go into Low gear after crashing.

 

When you crash try taking out more than one car, or a car and a sign - is it possible to do 2 cars and a sign - might earn you a HSC bonus point

 

Have fun!

Cheers will give it a go

88 392862. Maybe I'll try again the catch up round

[HSC9 Round 10: Crystal Castles]

88 version best I've done so far without Warps is 302k. I'll have another go at the weekend, haven't had much time this week

[HSC9 Round 10: Crystal Castles]

592732 - level 10 "The end"

 

 

Extra, super game. I love this game

 

 

 

Heavy Metal:

 

First game: only 2 Jewels.

 

With or without Warps?

[HSC9 Round 10: Crystal Castles]

Found it a bit difficult at first to get the 3D movement, first couple of goes were 60k and 66k then I started to get the hang of it.

Although something weird happened in the middle, I'm pretty sure I jumped some levels and my score shot up. Did I do a warp?

 

1988 Cart 523k

[HSC9 Round 10: Crystal Castles]

I don't get Heavy Metal. So far this game doesn't rock.

[HSC9 Round 10: Crystal Castles]

Which version are these scores on?

[HSC9 R9: Diamonds Jubilee & HiScoro 2012]

Getting into Diamond Mine (got the 2nd code) 54,425 really nice game

BDII had a crack on Level 4 Completed Caves A-I (9) and Level 5 Completed A-F (6) Gets really twitchy and nerve shatterinlgy difficult; C5 took a few goes to beat!

Just played my Final HiScoro Match McKong... I'll post first

My boys did good, but was it enough to life the trophy? (loser has to provide the trophy )

 

THIS HSC ROUND CLOSES 11PM BST FOLKS! Still time to VOTE - we have 3 strong contenders for the next game

 

Didn't think you were getting the day off Scalak?!!! I might have to play some more after the England match tonight

 

Finally someone likes Diamond Mine! Shame about the colours on PAL cos it makes it tricky to see where the walls are some times.

If we'd been playing this one on it's own I would have made an effort to get the last codes.

 

I think you were at a big disadvantage playing right to left, it's a shame they didn't build a turnaround into the longer games. Perhaps you should play again left to right?

 

Come on England!

[HSC9 R9: Diamonds Jubilee & HiScoro 2012]

Looks like I won the toss off to play now

[HSC9 R9: Diamonds Jubilee & HiScoro 2012]

HiScoro 2012

Final McKong vs trbb

1x 45 minute game on level 3 (no practice games)

Call heads or tails McKong - If I win the toss I get right to left play! (I've posted the coin toss result on Post #8 no peeking )

Would you prefer us to play on level 4? I'll be playing this tomorrow/Sunday as off to see RHCP (probably in the rain )

3rd Place Playoff Scalak vs Fallout_002

If you guys want to play there's a point at stake! You can agree on different game settings as you wish )

 

THIS DOUBLE HSC ROUND ENDS SUNDAY NIGHT (UK TIME) IF THERE ARE NTSC PLAYERS WHO WANT EXTRA TIME (UNTIL MONDAY MORNING PLEASE POST AND I'LL EXTEND THINGS A FEW HOURS

 

Tables Updated

 

VOTE H*E*R*E for the next game

 

Ok I call Tails. It better be level 3 cos if I lose the toss it'll be embarrassing playing with team 2 on level 4

[HSC9 R9: Diamonds Jubilee & HiScoro 2012]

Ok so I played my second and third game of football

 

Level 3 a win 1-4

and Level 4 a loss 7-1 shouldn't have played two back to back!

[HSC9 Round 10 Poll]

I don't think I've ever played Crystal Castles! I've got the cartridge so it would be nice to play that version.

 

Pole position is a great game but it get's boring quickly. I think it was the first game we had on disk all those years ago!

[HSC9 R9: Diamonds Jubilee & HiScoro 2012]

Ok after a quick practice of back to front football I played my first 10 minute game on level 3.

 

A win 1-3

 

Definitely tricky playing the other way

[HSC9 R9: Diamonds Jubilee & HiScoro 2012]

Tables Updated - it's very very close too close

[HSC9 R9: Diamonds Jubilee & HiScoro 2012]

Played my 3rd game in the HiScoro Quarter Finals a narrow 2-1 victory (I will extend this round 'til

TUESDAY morning folks - if you play less than 4 games and it's equal on points the one who has played most games will go through)

Still impressed by the new BDII title screen

 

p.s. JC/emulator users try using PAL video setting on games that don't seem to work - can someone confirm they all run (I'm short of time today) Thanks.

Are you not going to goal difference as the first tie-break?

[HSC9 R9: Diamonds Jubilee & HiScoro 2012]

Ok my games of footy four in a row all level 4
