Bermuda Triangle Info

Recommended Posts

Hi All,

 

just came across this ad : http://www.tomheroes.com/Video%20Games%20F...ads/bermuda.htm

 

and wondered if anyone had info on the manuscript and artifact mentioned? Just curious. Also does anyone have a bermuda triangle cart for sale, it looks fun and is a title I have never come across before. I'm in the UK so maybe it wasn't released here?

 

Thanks!

Never seen that contest before. Bermuda Triangle was released in Europe by Gameworld.

Actually hate to disapoint you but I once owned the entire set of Data Age games and that was one of them. The only Gameworld I owned was Rock N Roll escape ;)

Bermuda Triangle IS a pretty fun game, in my opinion. I know a lot of people hate it, though. The thing is, it gets wicked hard once you get to 10,000 pts. I'd be surprised if anyone scored 100,000 to win the "secret manuscript", much less 500,000. My highest score is in the 20,000 point range.

 

Ok, I just checked Twin Galaxies - Todd Rogers has the highest score on Bermuda Triangle, with over 1.7 million (in 2003). The second place score is only 17,200. Quite a difference. (Although maybe I should tape myself? I could take that second place spot!) Anyway, I'd imagine that no one scored close to 100k/500k in the early eighties when the contest was held...

Fox, do you mean you had a PAL Data Age Bermuda Triangle? I know it was in NTSC of course.

Thanks everyone!

 

 

So pretty much they just set a way too high score threshold & probably no one ever got the prize, one wonders if it even existed.

 

 

I have a PAL Airlock by Gameworld that says it's Data Age on the title screen(what an awful game).

Couldn't honestly say. My Encounter at L-5 used to roll a lot when I first got it but once I got a better tv it worked fine. I got Bermuda Triangle afterwards ;)
