shadow460 Posted October 17, 2006 Author Share Posted October 17, 2006 Here it is, folks! Let the 2006 7800 High Score Competition begin! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atarifever Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Is there a complete enough ROM anywhere of this for me to play it? Also, is Atariage the only place that was selling it, or is there somewhere else I could still go to pick it up? I was way too broke to buy it before.

Almost Rice Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 So it begins. I have to set up my 7800 near the video capture card. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
128bytes Posted October 17, 2006 Share Posted October 17, 2006 Excellent! I have never downloaded the final version of kenfused's Beef Drop to my CC2 - now is the time. Can you post a link to the final version ROM (so I know it's the right one) and the CC2 settings (for the benefit of CC2 owners)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shadow460 Posted October 18, 2006 Author Share Posted October 18, 2006 (edited) Here is a link to the final demo version. The only differences I know of in this and the ROM that was sold are in the intro screen. I don't know the CC2 settings for it. The cart was offered exclusively through AtariAge. Some members have had demo version carts built, but most of those are older versions of the game. Edited October 18, 2006 by shadow460 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lauren Tyler Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 I hope AtariAge still sells this game. I might ask my mother to get me a copy for Christmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godzillajoe Posted October 18, 2006 Share Posted October 18, 2006 Wow, no one is playing? Well, I'll get it started with 28,300 a lousy score that doesn't even warrant a picture but hopefully it will get the ball rolling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

godzillajoe Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 332,000?! How in the blue hell do you manage that?! I topped out at about 65,000 once and thought that was good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atarifever Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 Well, I can't get this game to work in either emmulator, so I'm out for this one. Anyone know why when I load it in pro system it just loops the music and nothing happens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
godzillajoe Posted October 19, 2006 Share Posted October 19, 2006 I thnik that rom from EmuAsylum is much easier than the actual cart. Seems like the extras peppers are easier to get and the enemies aren't as smart or fast or something. I barely ever crack 30K on the real system or reach level 6 but on the emulator I just did 55,000 first time through Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone know why when I load it in pro system it just loops the music and nothing happens? Try EMU7800 (I FINALLY got it working in XMess this morning, but it's a hassle to set up the BIOS and stuff...)... What you gotta do: - Put 7800.ROM in the same directory as the Beef Drop ROM. - Load the ROM and attempt to run it. It'll crap out saying you need to adjust the console settings. - Click the "Console" tab and type the following stuff: gs machinetype atari7800ntsc gs carttype a7832 If you're using the keyboard to control things, do this: gs lcontroller joystick If you don't do that last step, the opening screen will constantly cycle through the difficulty levels, and when you start you won't be able to control Peter.

Seems like the extras peppers are easier to get and the enemies aren't as smart or fast or something. I barely ever crack 30K on the real system or reach level 6 but on the emulator I just did 55,000 first time through I think one thing that will help is if you maximize your points as much as possible. I have a feeling most people, when the game starts, go immediately to the top of the board, get an enemy to stand on a bun, and then send 'em tumbling to the bottom. This will end the level quickly, but you'll not get many points. Basically, a good way to rack up a high score is actually to start on the BOTTOM and work your way up on each layer. First, have an enemy [or more!] follow you onto the bottom bun, then let 'em have it. Repeat for the other burgers. Then go to the next higher level and repeat. You get a lot of points for each enemy-drop. With careful planning, you can easily end level 1 with well over 15,000 points every time. Also, try to time your drops so that you have a clear path to the bonus so you can grab it when it pops up. With careful planning, you'll have enough chefs and peppers to get past that dreaded 6th level -- I finally made it. Alas, I can't get higher than 81,600 -- a score I've achieved twice today!

Dauber Posted October 20, 2006 Share Posted October 20, 2006 (edited) *cough* *cough* I would have gotten higher if the @#%!

jwierer Posted October 22, 2006 Share Posted October 22, 2006 335,700. I've played a lot of Beef Drop... I can't get past this level though. I lose all my lives on this last level. -Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
