Atari5200 Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 (edited) Welcome to the inaugural round of the TG-16 HSC!!!! The game is BLAZING LASERS. Probably one of, if not the best shoot em up on the system. If you have a TG-16 and don't own this game, I highly recommend you buy it. The rules are simple. Any system can be used, base, express, duo. Emulation is ok. Screen shots preferred but not necessary to submit score. High score after the end of the round wins!!! The competition will end on 9-14-2008. ADDED A WEEK SINCE I WILL BE ON VACATION WHEN IT WAS ORIGINALLY ENDING So lets get our TG-16's fired up and get blasting for those high scores.

NE146 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Too bad this aint 1989 because I used to be able to clear the entire game on 1 credit hint: "the SHIP Continues are key" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace_1 Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 (edited) Time to stick it in my TurboGrafx. I'll update this post with my best score. I currently have a game going. Once I Game Over, I'll post my score. And here's the final score: 3,398,620 Edited August 16, 2008 by Ace_1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artlover Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 I guess the original post doesn't get regularly updated anymore in these HSC's? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari5200 Posted August 16, 2008 Author Share Posted August 16, 2008 (edited) yes when I get around to it, which won't be today all of the HSC I run the leader board gets updated when I am able to do it or feel like it.

Yeah, you do run quite a few of them, don't ya. I'm sure you got better things to do then lurk around 24/7 waiting to update the scores and junk after every post. It's all good, just wondering.

bust3dstr8 Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Would Gunhed scores be allright too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace_1 Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 I know I'm not the moderator of this club, but Gunhed is Blazing Lazer's PC Engine(Japanese version) version, so I'm pretty sure Atari5200 would count you in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari5200 Posted August 17, 2008 Author Share Posted August 17, 2008 yep, import versions are ok as long as it's the same game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bust3dstr8 Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Cool, I think for the most part allmost all the PCE and TG16 games have the same gameplay. There might be some small intro or language changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari5200 Posted August 18, 2008 Author Share Posted August 18, 2008 i guess I suck at this game, so far I've surpassed ArtLover in score, but I can't get passed the 3rd level, so i'm scoring over 300k that's it, others are posting in the millions, I'm embarrased to post my score..lol. This is such a fantastic shooter though, I have to keep trying. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is such a fantastic shooter though, I have to keep trying. You see those powerups that "stop" when you shoot them and make a clanking noise? Keep shooting them until they turn into a glowing ball that floats upward. Then collect that ball and it will give you 1 ship-continue. In other words, if you die, the game won't stop (which it usually will do) and the next ship will just come out and you just keep on going from that point without interruption. I think this is the most essential tip to getting far in Blazing Lazers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atari5200 Posted August 18, 2008 Author Share Posted August 18, 2008 thanks for that. I got the complete game, guess I should've read the manual...nah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without that knowledge there's no chance I could've gotten as far as I just did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atari5200 Posted August 20, 2008 Author Share Posted August 20, 2008 boy i'm pissed, had a really good game going tonight, was over 1 mil points, dog needed to come in, i put the turbo express down and must've bumped the ac adaptor cord the wrong way and the damn thing turned off. grrrr, now i'm to mad to play again, will have to try later, but at least now I can get a respectable score.

Just put yourself in 3rd place with "over 1 million". Don't look like anyone else is playing anyways, and I suck at this game, so it would probably end up being right anyways.

bust3dstr8 Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 My first run of Gunhed was a little over 1.7 mil. After a few more games of practice I will hopefully be knocking at first place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ace_1 Posted August 23, 2008 Share Posted August 23, 2008 (edited) Can we probably say he used cheats? It certainly doesn't look like he was playing it on original hardware. Edited August 23, 2008 by Ace_1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
