Yeah Trip, I was half asleep when I posted that and didn't even see your score. When I totaled them all up I couldn't believe it. It actually made me feel bad b/c I don't have a way to capture pics. Then I wondered where I got that extra hundredth of a second. I was seeing things. But anyway, that was a very good run by both of us. Jeff and Rockman are freaks. CV

What are some good games to look out for, Trip? (or anyone else) CV

Best I could do was 10-0 2:12:46 Cousin Vinnie

(I know this is not an appropriate place to post this, but I wanted to give my 7800 brethern a heads up) If you live near an EB, (Electronic's Boutique) they are giving away free Dreamcasts with a purchase of 3 Dreamcast games of $4.99 and more. I was skeptical at first, b/c I figured most games were 15-20 bucks still, but I left with a new DC and 5 games (Sega Bass Fishing, Shenmue, Crazy Taxi, Space Channel 5, and Toy Commander) for 27 bucks. Pretty sweet! Check it out, peeps. Cousin Vinnie

Hey Trip, it's all used, but still, that's a damn good bargain. My Dreamcast makes ALOT of noise. I mean ALOT. Is this normal? Or is there a reason they were giving these away? CV

There are several cups and things to get in on, not just the overall points race. We would love more people. It would be moderately easy to get into the top 5 in a few weeks time if you get a few games you and your son rule at. Just post a score when you see a game you dig. Cousin Vinnie

I meant "time" instead of score in the sentence... This is an example: Hello. My name is Jedi Jeff. I defeated the hardest computer droid 10-0 with 2:56:34 left in the game. Good luck everyone! Have fun! Cousin Vinnie

Since we have played a few games that aren't very popular in the last few weeks, I have decided to let everyone have a big ole time with Ballblazer. We will play Ballblazer on Droid 9 setting, with a 3 minute time limit Your score should include the final score, and if you defeated the Droid 10-0, it should include the score as well. Ballblazer will offer points in Overall Standings Atari/ Computer Classics Standings The game will end Saturday Night at 11:59PM Enjoy!

A'ght, gonna end the big Pete Rose week tomorrow. To sleepy now. Cousin Vinnie

To encourage people to still join up, I am announcing some added features to our High Score Club that people who join now have a chance at winning/ placing in something. Not only is there the overall, arcade, and atari/ computer game cups the Atari fools can win, I am adding genre cups to the mix as well. These will include: 7800 Sports Cup Champion 7800 Shooting Game Champion 7800 Puzzle/Driving Game Champion Also, once a month we will be having Double Down Week, where a combined score in two similar games will be added up to see who gets the points! This way, even if you only have one game or you really rock in one game, you can still compete and have a chance to do well. Double Down weeks will also feature games that we have already played, so if you missed it the first time, you can try it again. Since we have not played many games in each category, there is still a chance for people to join now and make a move at medaling in these cups. Cousin Vinnie

DK! Donkey Kong! DK! Yeah, Donkey Kong is here! Check out the Atari 7800 High Score Club Homepage for more info: www.flipsiderunner.com/7800/highscore.html This isn't the best version of the game, but NE146 proved to be the best version of a gamer we had around during Donkey Kong week.
