mr_intv Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 (edited) Hmm, just bowled a 279. Thanks for the tips. All strikes except for a spare in the 4th. Im not on a team kind of a lone wolf I guess. Lol That's a personal best! Edited January 26, 2016 by mr_intv 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr_intv Posted January 26, 2016 Share Posted January 26, 2016 (edited) Getting so close to that perfect game, spared in the first then strikes the rest of the way. Apparently I bowled while upside down! How impressive is that. Lol. Damn phone... Edited January 26, 2016 by mr_intv 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_intv Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 Mr_ Intv, congratulations!!! Thanks Wolfy, I thought I'd start playing some games for fun today and try to break 200 for the first time. Then I was so close so many times to a perfect game I became obsessed! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opry99er Posted January 27, 2016 Author Share Posted January 27, 2016 mr_intv, Wish you were in the league this season!!!!! Perhaps you could join the Spring league. Great score. Wish I could hit it, but can't seem to do it on my console. I've come REEEEAL close in emulation (290) but never cracked the 300. My 290 in emulation came before the league started and I can't seem to duplicate it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Opry99er Posted January 27, 2016 Author Share Posted January 27, 2016 (edited) Okay guys!!! Had a shake-up in the standings.... The middle teams all shifted around with a VERY tight cluster at 3,4, and 5!!!! The top two positions remain unchanged with MAGNIFICENT scores from all bowlers in those two teams! We had a non-participation this week, as I didn't see a score submitted from HyperBoy. I believe for the sake of the good of the league, I will go with a suggestion made a few pages back that a non-participation will result in a 100 score. I am having a blast playing Bowling with my boy, and I am glad you all are a part of this league. If the top two teams keep posting 300 scores every week, we may not have much competition for first place. Anyway, great work, guys... keep it up, as the season is just gearing up into BEAST MODE!!!!! Edited January 27, 2016 by Opry99er 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nutsy Doodleheimer Posted January 27, 2016 Share Posted January 27, 2016 I got a message from Hyperboy stating that his area got pummelled from the brutal Winter Storm and he lost power all weekend until Tuesday. He told me that he was going to contact you if he hasen't already about submitting a make up score. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+cvga Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 So all you 300 bowlers... I'm guessing you mastered the left handed, 16 LB ball, zero slickness, move all the way to the top, just barely press and release Aim, then 6 c'clock curve method? Uh oh... Did I just do a 'talk about Fight Club'? This game would be a good candidate for a Super Pro Bowling update. A couple of things I'd suggest... - Have the targeting shadow sweep from the bottom to the top of the screen if a left-handed bowler is chosen - An icon or other graphical change on each possible screen to indicate that this is the Super Pro version - Maybe some additional sounds - A cut screen picture or short animation for special events like a turkey, hambone, split conversion or perfect game 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And also look into how the pins respond to the ball collision, and confirm pin to pin collision reactions, to see if any enhancements, or more realism, can be garnered. In regards to the aim spotter starting location, just start it in the middle regardless of handedness. I like the idea of a cut scene animation for the various special events. Intellivoice is always a nice touch. Maybe an option to type in the bowler's name. That can be used in the cut scenes, and shown on the scoreboard when the game is over. Entering a name should be optional, but will be a nice addition if it is used in more than just the scoreboard. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the idea of being able to add the bowler's name. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Jay Posted January 31, 2016 Share Posted January 31, 2016 Well, this is the best I could muster. My scores are definitely on an upward trajectory, but I'm still looking for that 300. Team Gutterballs! 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
