+therealbountybob Posted March 20, 2016 Share Posted March 20, 2016 McKong's selection is plunged to the Round 6 Poll of gaming goodness. 3 Platformers, and we all know he likes them, including one of the best modern A8 games, plus a couple of classics Poll closes after the current round Sunday 10PM UK time RGB HSC Rating: U http://a8.fandal.cz/detail.php?files_id=7075 One of the best ever abbuc games. Eight levels, 2 difficulties. A platformer with a twist of colour! Press HELP to toggle fire/joystick up action. More info on RGB Moon Patrol & Moon themed bonus HSC Rating: 9 http://a8.fandal.cz/detail.php?files_id=2460 Version with fixed sounds and background colour (idea by Raster, fix by Fandal) We've played this a lot and it's a bit too easy for the top players so if this wins we'll have a Moon themed round with some bonus games Montezuma's Revenge HSC Rating: 9 http://a8.fandal.cz/detail.php?files_id=2436 There are two versions - we'll have to decide which to play - last time the Parker Bros one was played in the HSC, the Utopia ver can't be completed? but it's still good Desmond's Dungeon HSC Rating: 9 Superb platformer, 2 stages, heaps of gold grabbing fun. http://a8.fandal.cz/detail.php?files_id=1746 There is a fixed/full version "E.S.C." - the Creative Sparks release only let you get to level 11! Cosmic Tunnels HSC Rating: 7 http://a8.fandal.cz/detail.php?files_id=1622 This is long overdue another HSC play, multi-stage space gold grabbing fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McKong Posted March 21, 2016 Share Posted March 21, 2016 Really like Moon Patrol and Desmond's dungeon. I don't remember playing the others but they look good! I remember playing Moon Patrol in the first HSC round I ever played. I had to work very hard for my score, I'm not sure I would say Moon Patrol was too easy, although you did say 'top players' 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yautja Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Montezuma /Preliminary Monty is, certainly, the most popular XL/XE series´ game among south american atarians. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rod Tomato Posted March 23, 2016 Share Posted March 23, 2016 Montezuma /Preliminary Monty is, certainly, the most popular XL/XE series´ game among south american atarians. True, I'm from Chile, and when I got my first 8-bit in 1989, my first purchase was "Montezuma's Revenge" on a cassette, and my first purchase on diskette was "Alternate Reality - The Dungeon". Good old times 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good old times Welcome to the HSC (and Atariatge) Rod Tomato - if that's an Ultima III avatar you have already earned a HSC bonus point (where are you Goochman ) Pretty close poll this time with 4 games vying for attention Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
