  1. Not bad! Never played this much before. 9,480.
  2. 38,850. Good version, but not one of my favorite games.

    4 players?

    Having a few friends over today... trying to think of any 4 player games I might have. Warlords is all that comes to mind. Anything else?
  5. No offence taken, Zero. It's my wife's camera and I know nothing about it . Anyway, this game's not getting any easier, so I don't have to worry about recording my amazing score any time soon.
  6. Here's a stupid question: If I take a digital picture of my screen to show my score, how do I post it so that it's not the size of a house? Just in case I ever get a REALLY good score, I'd like to post proof. The reason I ask is that when I posted my picture for my patch on Starfire, it came out HUGE. Any help greatly appreciated!
  7. Ok, THIS I'm excited about! Lunar Lander, Major Havoc, and ... Red Baron??? That one goes WAY back. Too cool. I have almost all the 2600 games, but it'll still be fun with the extra modes etc.
  8. DOH!!! Why don't I read the instructions?? You can only catch the cops in the corner ... once ... per .. board... DOH!
  9. Wow! I'm kind of surprised. I can't see why do this unless (like someone else said) there will be additions available... Hate the 7800 sticks. It's kind of funny that there was a thread in the 2600 section about this a week or two back. A lot of people were commenting (and I thought so too) that it was unlikely anything like this would happen. Go figure. Can't decide if I'd get one or not.. I have everything but Planet Smashers ... Maybe I would for the novelty of it.
  10. 22,900 is my best so far. I like how you get a free second or so after you do anything good (get treasure/trap cop etc.). I DON'T like that sometimes when you trap a cop you don't get points for it. Overall though, a hard and fun game!
  11. 26,030 ... This club is really good - makes me try a lot harder!!!!! Is it just me, or does the merry soundtrack make you feel suicidal after you carelessly loose 2 or 3 guys in a row ! ?!!
  12. Yup. I was surprised to find that it was quite a fun little game once I figured out just what the heck I was supposed to be doing! Yeah, it's pretty fun once you know what to do... I finally beat it (on easy ) and I still TRY to beat Spike's Peak periodically (I can get to the 3rd screen every now and again). The first screen on Spike's took me a while to beat, it's weird with all the timing stuff you have to do to avoid certain death from the bird and bear.
  13. I just got back in town... must... make ... time ... to play! Great choice - this is a great game.
  14. Unless you plan on selling the game (don't if you like it - my advice - you'll wish you had it again later!! ) Then there's no harm. You've got a nice fresh copy to play and keep until you want to play it again!! What's the point of leaving it in the shrinkwrap? And... If you never open it.... how do you know there's really a game in there? ... hmmm ...
  15. 1,358 - I'm not proud, but it's all I can do!!
  16. SIGN ME UP! This looks like fun, how have I been missing this?
  17. I don't know if this is already widely known, but it's new to me. I was playing "Off the Wall" and flipped the color/BW switch off and on and the game paused! Did it again and it resumed. I looked in the manual and didn't see that feature listed? Also, although it's very obvious, the manual doesn't mention that it keeps your high score on the title screen - this is always a nice feature!
  18. Never mind.. just found the answer (I think) on Video Game Critic ... Hold button down and press up... I'll go try it - thanks anyway!
  19. Help! I'm masochistically trying to enjoy my Ghost Manor/Spike's peak combo and I'm stuck on Ghost Manor. I get to the last screen with, uh, Dracula and I have the crosses... but how do I use them?? He just runs up on me and takes my 1 life while I run around pressing the button!
  20. How hard would it be (to any who know) to hack Space Attack so that you could : have a score - maybe points per ship, bonus for squadron, bonus for fast mission completion? And, maybe also a variation with unlimited waves? If I can ever learn enough about programming, I'd like to do it... if not, anyone else > It's such a cool game on both 2600 and Intellivision, but I want these features every time I play. Could this ever be?
