Algus Posted March 31, 2013 Share Posted March 31, 2013 Hi guys and gals, Welcome to Round 1 of the Sega Genesis/Mega Drive High Score Club. Started with the encouragement of the previous moderator Jibbajaba. This will be a short season of 5 rounds, with more to come if interest is maintained. Let's kick this off with a game that EVERYONE has. Full rules can be found in this blog post. Quick and dirty: Play the game. Post your score. Highest score wins. Points are earned depending on how you place on the leaderboard to determine a champion at the end of the season! Sonic the Hedgehog 2 "And now for the game everyone has" You are ultrahip blue hedgehog Sonic and all your animal friends have been turned into robots! Somehow running really fast will save them. Sonic Team, 1992 Choose Sonic Only To access options from the title screen press down twice and select options This round closes 12:00 AM EST on April 14th, 2013 Challenge How many lives can you stock? The player with the most lives wins! Here's the tricky part though: you must provide a screen shot to claim the challenge point.

Algus Posted April 8, 2013 Author Share Posted April 8, 2013 Be sure to play with Sonic only roadrunner. Sonic & Tails or just Tails are easier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Algus Posted April 10, 2013 Author Share Posted April 10, 2013 Just a friendly reminder, this round closes on Sunday the 14th at midnight EASTERN STANDARD TIME To be fair to everyone, I won't accept any scores posted after that time. Also a reminder: no one has attempted the challenge yet. Stock as many lives as you can and post a screenshot (the fun is in not knowing when to take the shot!) of your counter. . Thanks to everyone who has participated so far. I think we're off to a good start. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good news is that although I didn't get as far I snagged a Chaos Emerald and topped my previous, albeit ineligible score. 125,220 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good news is that although I didn't get as far I snagged a Chaos Emerald and topped my previous, albeit ineligible score. 125,220 It doesn't help that the options were hard to find. I had to press down on the controller to find them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
