StanJr Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 It took about an hour or so but I just rolled Yar's Revenge (game 1). The score rolls at 1 million of course, and after I did that (I had 3120 that rolled over and ALL 9 lives), to cap it off, I unlocked the Easter Egg and froze the game! Woohoo! Now I shall embark on the Ultimate Challenge, Game 6: Ultimate Yar's!!!!!! eek. This may take a month or six... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Atari Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 It's one thing after another with you Stan, isn't it? Congrats! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RCorcoran Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 Congrats! The world's record for Yar's Game 1B is just over 15M. Game 6A (Ultimate Yar's) is one we use at Twin Galaxies for live competitions. We also limit the game to 15 mins to ensure everybody has a chance to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NE146 Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 oh... So that's what you've been doing.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bergbros Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 Your next assignment is getting every treasure in Pitfall, rolling Infiltrate (Any Game) getting through all levels in Laser Gates, getting all clues without cheating in Swordquest without humming the game through the window, and rolling the game of your hero, Spiderman. Once you do that, I will worship at the allmighty Red Eye altar of StanJr. Very unimpressed bergbros. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King Atari Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 If we're giving Stan assignments, then I assign Stan to win one match in Karate. If he proves that, then he must win THE ENTIRE GAME! BWA HA HA HA HA! Then he will be video game master. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted July 1, 2002 Share Posted July 1, 2002 Stan, why do you not try to beat Thrust? That's the ultimate challenge! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StanJr Posted July 1, 2002 Author Share Posted July 1, 2002 Stan, why do you not try to beat Thrust? That's the ultimate challenge! Gee, if only I had a FREE copy of the game to play, I'd sure give it a go (and don't give me none of that EMULATOR crap, I wanna cart!) I could roll Spider-man easy, its a question of time. I could have kept going on YAR'S indefinitely, (I had not lost a Yar since 350,000 at which point the difficulty is pretty much done ramping). I can already get every treasure in Pitfall! (thanks to a certain infamous Map ) There is NO WAY possible to get all the clues in SQ without the solution, so forget it. I'm very very close to rolling Mr. Do! Whew!

No wonder we haven't seen you for a while. You have been busy kicking butt at all those games. Congratulations of Yar's Rvenge. Mr. Kassar would be so proud of you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So where were your during the Thrust+ contest? With your gaming skills, I think you could have easily won (something). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanJr Posted July 2, 2002 Author Share Posted July 2, 2002 I must have missed that. I have only played your fine game once and then only briefly on the emu. I have the world's worst PC joystick so playing any VCS game on my emulator is no fun. I wanna give Thurst a fair shot on my real Atari.

The Mysterious SirPaul Posted July 4, 2002 Share Posted July 4, 2002 odd.. I've been playing the atari since I was 2, and the only games I beat/rolled the score on is Video Pinball, Asteroids, and Swordquest (earth and fire). I need to practice more, I guess...
