+Yurkie Posted August 30, 2009 Share Posted August 30, 2009 May I submit a score? I hold the record in skill #3 on twin galaxies 1,256,690 Seriously you chose a great game for the HSC. This Parker Brothers release is the best home console version in my opinion, and defiantly a must have for the ColecoVision Collector. Good Luck everyone... I am not going to post a score.
