+DamonicFury Posted April 4, 2022 Share Posted April 4, 2022 Welcome to the seventh round of the 15th 5200 HSC season! After a greater than usual turnout (thanks everyone!), Gyruss won the poll by one vote. Play using the default settings. Emulation is fine, as are custom controls. Pics preferred, but not required except for HSC wins and records. The high score was set by Nuclear Pacman with a score of 619,250 points. Beat this if you can for a bonus point! The ROM and manual can be found here: https://atariage.com/software_page.php?SoftwareLabelID=625 Round ends Sunday, April 17th, 2022 @9pm EST Standings: rubeon - 170,700 IICCEEMMAANN - 94,750 bemis - 73,500 mark griff - 38,850 jblenkle - 33,500 1 Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/333553-5200-hsc-season-15-round-7-gyruss/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thoroughly understand a preference for the original carts and hardware, but you don’t have to buy every game that comes along here. Lots of folks use multicarts or emulation to play the games they don’t yet own.

rubeon Posted April 5, 2022 Share Posted April 5, 2022 67,300 Dang, this is a fun game. I'm not proud of it, but I still get a chuckle whenever it mentions Uranus. This is one of the very few games where I prefer emulation, because the CX52 just destroys my thumb without autofire. I'll play this round on the MiSTer with a Genesis controller.
