CGQuarterly Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 I'll get around to posting the usual goodies, but I wanted to get the new round posted. I'm at work so I'll have to take care of the rest later... Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ClassicGMR Posted July 1, 2010 Share Posted July 1, 2010 5,310 I may take another couple of shots at this but as you can tell this is not my type of game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGQuarterly Posted July 1, 2010 Author Share Posted July 1, 2010 Honestly, games like this just have a learning curve. If you keep at it, your score will increase dramatically. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lauren Tyler Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 10,310 Not bad, given that I wasn't using the Konami Code. (This was the first game where I learned of it. I was reading a magazine and I noticed in the side about the code that would give you 30 lives. With this, I was able to beat the game. I remember the night a friend of mine and I beat it together.) Oh, and NO using the Konami Code, folks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightSprinter Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 What about auto/turbo-fire then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGQuarterly Posted July 2, 2010 Author Share Posted July 2, 2010 No using codes in any games. That should go without saying. NightSprinter, I personally have no problem with people using controllers that have turbo buttons. If anyone else wants to chime in on that subject, please feel free to do so.

mihcael Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 First go last night, but ran out of time so i had to kill myself. 97,850 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGQuarterly Posted July 2, 2010 Author Share Posted July 2, 2010 The gauntlet has certainly been thrown down. I don't have this game, but there is a store here in town that is selling it for $10. That's overpriced, but maybe worth it if it means that I can play along with the HSC this week... Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightSprinter Posted July 2, 2010 Share Posted July 2, 2010 I'll give it a shot on an emulator, but I definitely need to get an NES again so I can play it on the real hardware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mihcael Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 685,010 - probably the last chance i will get for this round. not quite what i was hoping for but should keep you all busy for a while Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGQuarterly Posted July 12, 2010 Author Share Posted July 12, 2010 Two more days on this... Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tr3vor Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 (edited) I hate whoever made this game, about the 5 times I've tried it, I got around 3,000... I'll see if I can get a better one. I'm giving up at 5,000, Too much trail and error for two days to get a somewhat decent score, so I'll let the older people that have been playing this game for thier whole lives to compete. After I gave up, I tried getting further into the game with the rewind function on nestopia, and found the brain boss rather disturbing. Usually I would see the brain as a final boss (metriod). At first I was avoiding its arms and then I look over and it has this large eyeball sticking out of the front of it and I thought, WTH is that?!

You have to shoot the boss in the eyeball a few times to kill it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tr3vor Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 You have to shoot the boss in the eyeball a few times to kill it. I know, but its just plain disturbing and creepy at the same time... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonic R Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 is it alright if I join in the NES score competition? I am also currently active in the Sega Master System score competition. here is my first submission for Life Force: 69,810 I hate the prominence stage!

Yeah, that is one weird looking boss. Maybe this will help cheer a few of us up and forget about seeing that boss. Here's a GIF of Charlotte Takes A Tumble And a link to the Youtube video clip.

CGQuarterly Posted July 14, 2010 Author Share Posted July 14, 2010 Of course it's alright! All are welcome. Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonic R Posted July 14, 2010 Share Posted July 14, 2010 thank you guys! I enjoy these competitions as it gives me something to play and focus on… dust off some classics and play them in a different light going for high score! I've enjoyed Life Force for a long time, but never really got good at it… in an hours time, I've seen improvement and even discovered some hidden extends! I can't wait to get home to play more before the deadline… I only regret that I didn't get started sooner… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sonic R Posted July 15, 2010 Share Posted July 15, 2010 a bit of improvement… 110,920 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CGQuarterly Posted July 17, 2010 Author Share Posted July 17, 2010 Sorry, guys. I was out of town on business. Just got back, and will try to remember to post the thread for the next game tomorrow. In the mean time, the list was already posted, so you can see what the next game is going to be (Bubble Bobble) and can go ahead and start playing.
