I was thinking that after finding Scramble here

I couldn't tell you though. They are pretty crap scores aren't they. You want to try Scramble without a joystick, it's almost impossible.

I'm going to keep trying though.

Oh yes boyo, nice one ......the old ones are the best

[1rep] class one at that

edit: will not let me give you a point

Hey Sid, how do you shoot on Scramble. I can drop bombs but can't shoot?

Sid · 09-05-2006, 06:22 PM

Shoot is control (very bottom left).

I've just got 75210 on Galaxians. Sad I know but beat that.

If i remember rightly my best was about fifty five thow but i missed the old bonuses which would have taken me to 150,000. They are not still working by any chance are they Sid?

I'd just like to point out that unless I'm mistaken I'm crap at the golf and can't really have the high score. Surely the person at the bottom of the table is the high scorer in that case?

No, it doesn't seem like the bonuses are working.

I'm still having trouble with the arcade, it keeps crashing on me half way through games

I wish I could have a go at it, it won't let me. Great Simon score by the way. It seems harder on this thing than it did when I had a real machine in front of me.
That's my excuse and I'm sticking with it!

The mechanical act of moving and clicking the mouse in Simon is more difficult than slapping the colour on the machine. I crashed out in the end because of a mis-click.

If that sounds big headed, it shouldn't. I actually used a bit of a cheaty method by using my musical technique. Once I'd assigned the note names C, D, E and F to Red, Green, Blue and Yellow it was only a matter of memorising the single lights as crotchets and the repeated ones as groups of quavers, which is something I do every day.

What chance do us muppets have then Relic ?

And the only game I have played has been golf.....and got a lower score than any others on display........ 39 I think......to your 40....so I want to claim my number one spot....unless I didn't save it.
