Amstari Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 I finally played three of the games. I still have to try Crypts of Chaos. I really don't like Spike's Peak but it sounds like it gets easier after the first level so I will try again.

DJT Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Wow... I almost threw this game out the window; but i managed to slightly beat my previous score for Night Driver 64 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJT Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Spike's Peak - This is a tough one. I had to go to the emulator on this one. Controls are rough had to use the keyboard. But I still managed to pickup 4000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss 2600 Posted August 5, 2011 Share Posted August 5, 2011 Ugh! I dreaded trying Spike's Peak after reading some of the horror stories. This game is frustrating in every way. Ducking, hiding, jumping, getting on the right road. It's too bad because I really like the graphics and, with better controls, the game play looks like it could be fun and unique. I managed to finally make it to the second screen (I know, pathetic). I'm not sure how much more I will be playing this one. 8,500 On a happier note, I kept getting 70 on Night Driver. I thought I peaked, but gave it another go and I surpassed 70 by 6 more points! 76 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostbite76 Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Just got my games in the mail today and good god is Spike's Peak not one of the worst games of all time. Why is it such a pain in the ass to get in the doors and barrells? Why does he move so slooooooow? Why is level 2 pure luck? I'm skipping this game because I've never played a game that made me so angry. I get more enjoyment getting kicked in the balls. Yes It's worse than Shark Attack.

DT Kofoed Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Ok, so I said I'd post at 10K, so this is a little early... but a wizard had me in a lair and I ran out of wand AND ring, so there's nothing I could do, and it's late: Totals so far: Night Driver [old] - 75 Spike's Peak [old] - 80,250 Submarine Commander [new] - 2240 Crypts of Chaos [new] - 9695 Jacob, looks like Chaos is between you and me! I believe my cumulative works up to 1,461,250 now, though I'm not sure how that ranks with everyone else's recent scores... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DT Kofoed Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 1st by season end, is starting to seem a reality! Unless it's a longer season then last year. We shall see... Season 10, I think many people can hit the #1 spot including you oyama (you're still in range of season 9, especially your top 5 goal) Gorfy and Frostbite have been top notch and keeping it (robot tank/frontline), Toymailman's always dangerous (now a Mac-daddy danger), and Stan is working hard and scores are flying up (spikes peak now). Jifremok is back and very tough to beat, same with Deteacher, Vocelli, DT Kofoed, Scrabbler... etc etc! Should be a very cool and violent next season. Everyones gettin' better with time. Hoping to be back for season 10! I will, unless forces stop me. Thanks for the shout-out ! Glad I made your cut-off in my [slightly late] debut season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJT Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 How do you guys organize your seasons? Set certain amount of games? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJT Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 Okay! Update to Night Driver: 70!!! I think I figured it out. On the difficulty we're playing, there is that one really tight hairpin turn with the house on the corner. If you play the track enough you can kinda *feel* when it's coming up. That's when I let off on the gas and begin to anticipate the sharp and narrow turn to the left. You can sometimes manage to pump the accelerator thru the turn and not lose too much time. I'm still working on perfecting the technique but so far it's been helping me improve my score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the Crypts score you just posted damn! Didn't expect it, I thought my 9ks would be almost unreachable... and you passed it! I gave Crypts another shot, yesterday... but I didn't like how it was going so I shut it off at 4ks. I'll try to give you a run for the money later tonight! Next season will probably be brutal competition, and game selection by Zero will pretty much decide who gets higher in the ranks, (anyones game). Though season 9 is still going, can't think too far now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JacobZu7zu7 Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 (edited) Zero says, If more than 20 people participate in this competition, I will extend the scoring (Similar to what was done with Stargate a few weeks back)... So bring your friends, and you might end up with twice as many points out of the deal! 4 people away from doubled scores! Sumbit now if you haven't :!: :!: :!: Edited August 6, 2011 by JacobZu7zu7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frostbite76 Posted August 6, 2011 Share Posted August 6, 2011 it's too bad were not playing Ghost Manor instead of Spike's Peak. Ghost Manor is very cool game that comes with the horrible Spike's Peak. Crypts of Chaos is very bad too That came as a shock to me since I love most of the Fox games.

oyamafamily Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 (edited) Since these games are not interesting for me, here are my final scores, because I reached my goal for this Variety Pack: 1 million points as Combined Score. Crypts of Chaos - 6,096 x 100 = 609,600 Submarine Commander - 1,710 x 100 = 171,000 Spike's Peak - 58,750 Night Driver - 67 x 2500 = 167,500 Combined score: 1,006,850 I went to 7800 HSC to try Galaga (Expert Mode), which is one of my favorite Arcade game.

Sitting in first place with the caliber of Atari players we have here is no small feat. Maybe I'll get my focus back next season and give you a run for your money. Or maybe I'll never touch the kind of scores you're puttin' up. Either way, it's a lot of fun. Nice job this season! :thumbsup: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

toymailman Posted August 7, 2011 Share Posted August 7, 2011 Couple of scores to update as well. I'm starting to really like Crypts of Chaos and Submarine Commander was a pleasant surprise (another fun one). I'm hoping to get some more time with them soon. 9k in Crypts is ridiculous you guys!!
