Nateo Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Is it just me or is this incarnation of the game extremely difficult? The first few screens are easy enough, but I just can't get above roughly 8,000 points. When I get to that point, I eventually just appear in a screen where a robot is right in front of me and attacks me a split second after play begins, giving me virtually no time whatsoever to react. Is there some sort of strategy I'm missing out on here? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R.O.T.S Posted July 13, 2012 Share Posted July 13, 2012 I do recall the vectrex being one of the more difficult versions but the robot starting positions should still be random so it is probably just poor variance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nateo Posted July 13, 2012 Author Share Posted July 13, 2012 Should I take it then that I'm probably SOL on breaking 8,800 points? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ilovethevectrex Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 the vectrex version is really hard, in my oppinion its because the ai is really good, and your charecter is slow :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrekMD Posted September 2, 2012 Share Posted September 2, 2012 I just wish this damn game would talk, like the original... There is a hacked version that does - Verzerk. If you have a VecMulti you can get the ROM and play it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turbogfx Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 My personal high score is 10,850 ... don't know if that's decent or just average. Wondering what other people's high-scores are, for reference? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
