Northcoastgamer Posted March 15, 2020 Author Share Posted March 15, 2020 ^Thanks. Managing that final assault on the north around the 1:45 mark is the key. Such a great game to play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.BAZ Posted March 15, 2020 Share Posted March 15, 2020 Some day I'll have a clue of how to play War Games. This week is the first time I've actually gotten a score, so I guess I've taken the first step. When I play on Skill 1 I get the same results: don't know what is happening and perhaps get some points. (150k at best) Skill 5: 250,000 Using the Phoenix w/normal CV controller Flashback controller doesn't seem to work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fakecortex Posted March 16, 2020 Share Posted March 16, 2020 (edited) I AVERTED THE COUNTERSTRIKE EVERYBODYYYYYYYY! So I finally got the hang of it, and to my surprise, started to enjoy it! I was making incremental advancements, but still coming up short, getting as close as 48 seconds remaining in my time. I had switched over to my original controller, and even tho it's busted for some games, it worked seemingly well enough for this one. That made a big difference, especially since the # buttons on the super action are not comfortable. So I kept at it for a bunch of games, getting a little better and a little closer, until finally, I noticed- I was at defcon 1, but that timer was just a little over my overall timer. When all was said and done, I won with 1 second remaining! I had to cheer out loud. It was as close to a real life war game as I was gonna get, people. 50,120,000 Just because it's too good to not share- 1 second left ladies and gentlemen: Edited March 16, 2020 by fakecortex 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Northcoastgamer Posted March 17, 2020 Author Share Posted March 17, 2020 Good to see the improvement in scores. I have been obsessed with saving all 26 bases and 21 cities for days now. Due to the current state of affairs, lots of CV time! I have some motivation this season that I haven't had in years to be honest. I was up at 6am awhile back playing that dam Flipper Slipper and River Raid. Going to try a bit more today for all the bases then some Smurf action. Taking the time to learn games opens many doors of enjoyment. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This group has really had me playing Colecovision a lot more then I probably would have otherwise. Although I love the system sometimes it gets lost in the shuffle. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
