Rally-X......I'm going for the WORLD RECORD!

Recommended Posts

Hey everyone,

I was playing a game of Rally-X today and I got the high score for my cabinet (easily achieved since it resets to 20000) but every time you do it a message appears that says something like.....

Congratulations you got the HIGH SCORE, now go for the World Record!!

Well it got me thinking...what is the world record? I quickly checked Twin Galaxies and found this score.

 

167,870 set by Chris Ranalla way back on 05/05/83

 

I don't play this game very often but I usually average 50,000 to 70,000 in the occasional sessions I have so whats another 100,000 right? Well it's quite a bit actually, this game gets unusually hard after a few levels. I don't think it's impossible though....like the Asteroids, Q*Bert or Galaxian high scores, those seem IMPOSSIBLE this one I would say with is possible with the proper trainig regimen. So it's official, training starts today. I'm going for it man, none of my other coin-ops will get the attention Rally-X does for the next several months because I'm officially in training. Another little thing I decided was to actually use quarters when I play. I will not spend them until I beat the record or 1 year which ever comes first. I think I'll use the proceds to get another dedicated cabinet and then try for another record but thats getting a little ahead of myself, this record has stood for over 20 years and will not be easily (if ever) beaten. Heres the cab If you haven't seen it yet

My high score today was 57390, nothing special but I haven't played this game for almost a year now. I usually just flip it on at party's but thats about it. Wish me luck man and I'll keep you guys posted as my score grows. If anyone knows any tips as well send them my way. Thanks man :)

That's what I said about Xybots.

 

I'd average 90k, WR is 180k or so. So, I figured, so what's just another 90k?

 

The highest I got one time was 120k and that was IT. That game gets sickening tough.

Yeah, this game is damn hard. It's going to take a lot of quarters.....and beer :D

I see why they made a new Rally-X that was less difficult.
