  1. Oh definitely. There’s so many glitchy circumstances in the game. It’s unplayable.
  2. For sure, the green screen will end your game no matter how many frogs you have left. but if you have 5 or more reserve frogs at 100,000, your game will glitch out before 110,000. if you have 3 or 4 reserve frogs, it will glitch out before 130,000. if you have 1 or 2 reserve frogs ... more chance the game will let you play it out... it can still green-screen on you but if it doesn’t your game anyway will end before 130,000 because there’s no more bonus men and the game gets very laggy and dead disc taps - Especially on every screen #4. having a nice clean game up to 200,000 is impossible on the console.
  3. They’re not comparable. On the console, the more frogs you have the higher the chance that the game goes to green screen (similar to the 6-man Demon Attack glitch). if you have more then 3 frogs at 90,000 the green screen will come automatically. Inty Matt, you had a game with 4 frogs at 100K and you said it was a pity that the green screen ended your game. But that was automatic. You had too many frogs. I had many games with 6 reserve frogs at 100,000 and the game ends with the green screen almost immediately. It’s more likely for the game to keep going at 100,000 if you have 0 or 1 reserve frogs. And even if the green screen doesn’t come, no one is scoring another 111 K with 1 or 2 frogs, no more bonus frogs, the dead disc taps, the anxiety of the green screen looming, and the difficulty as it is at that stage of the game. the console also has dead disc taps and lagging. It happens more frequently the further into the game. As often as 1 in 5 taps on the disc are dead taps. In a lucky game, only 1 in 10 taps are dead taps. I suggest to Rickster to have 2 leaderboards for Frogger. One for console and one for computer emulation. On the console you can’t have 8 frogs at 100,000 without the green screen coming immediately. LOL. Impossible. Inty Matt can confirm all of this since he is a professional Frogger on the console.
  4. Someone woke up the sleeping Matt-dragon! I KNEW I should have picked Junior!
  5. Mr. Me, you’re too modest! We’re all doing the We’re Not Worthy Wave, in unison!
  6. Empire Strikes back was voted worst game on the console. Followed by Sewer Sam. if you only had three games then I can see why you enjoyed them. Ladybug is pretty good after all! (Compared to Empire). Why make the turtles inanimate chocolate turtles on Frogger? The only good graphic is the grey truck. But that’s it. Even the graphic of the smiley-frog that sits at the top of the screen is ridiculous! not as bad as donkey Kong being drawn as Captain Caveman and Mario as a pink pig?
  7. I stand corrrcted! Third place. However, I still give Frogger and Parker LAST place on graphics! The headless centipede and alien-insects on Ladybug are much better then these cars on Frogger that look like fish from shark shark and the turtles look like chocolate turtles.
  8. Picked up a crappy backup Intel machine. Just hooked it up. Right controller is busted. Left one glitchy. “Gotta do what gotta do”. Zero excuses. Let’s play ball fellas!!! Ps) I forgot Frogger sucks on Intel. The lagging of the gameplay! And the graphics..... worse then Coleco games! 19K. First place I believe!!!
  9. Update on Defender: I was trying to get past the first screen .. I reset my game over 100 times in a row and broke my Intellivision. None of the buttons work and the game is haywire. Thanks Defender! I have to find my dusty old Intellivision in storage at my brother’s place and see if it still works. I know the right controller is broken. There’s no time to get one shipped from eBay. Any Sparty fans out there: it’s not looking good. Congrats Parse; it was a great battle right to the end.
  10. Nice job on Ladybug Parse! I was sure I had it. Damn I knew I should have gone for that 3 second checkmate in chess!
