Never seen that before. That is the second bug you found this season. You should be a QA game tester.

fakecortex #63 Posted April 4 Managed a little better on game 7, even cleared the board once and had to bounce around waiting for more blocks to come down haha. No luck for 5 tho. Game 7 - 1,164 Game 5 previous: 991 + Game 7 new: 1164 = 2,155 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheActivisionary #64 Posted April 4 Super Breakout Game 5: 1003 Game 7: 1081 Surprised I scored better on the one that was arguably harder! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
+jgkspsx #65 Posted April 4 I failed to improve my score, but not for lack of trying. My last decent score on the VCS: 764 (@JeffVav we love you but the way Atari Flashback Collection/Vault hides the last score is mystifying and frustrating) I did admittedly spend more time playing Breakout Recharged this week than 2600 Super Breakout. That is one addictive game. I also played the 5200 and arcade versions of Super Breakout at some length. It was a breakout week for gaming! 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I actually was a QA tester for Microsoft for about 20 years. Then they decided they didn't need QA engineers anymore and started having developers test their own code. We can see how well that's working... Now, I'm a high school math teacher. Edited April 4 by kermit73 Changed wording. 2 1 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
