I mean, they're really old at this point, so probably, you know, the last thing they want to do is get on the internet. I am! And So are You! 😆🤣😁 It’s because of these guys that we’re on here!😆🤣😁 I’ll tell you what’s going in their lives, they are getting on all these forums checking people’s High Scores!😆🤣😁 After the big game crash there was nothing for them to do! 😆🤣😁 Edited August 16 by MrChickenz 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s just a matter of rhythm, you actually start to get the feel of it. Let me know how you do! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's big generational difference. I guess there proof is in the pudding. He's not on here! We gotta settle for a mardy Stella maintainer ! lol Edited August 17 by tradyblix 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigfriendly Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 I played this damn thing for almost two hours. I wanted to try to get a 100K but it just to damn hard! I finally had to stop because my wrist was starting to ache from playing. Anyway 68K is the best I could do on Solar Fox. Incredibly addictive game that really pisses you off but in a good way. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TERRIBLE! 🤣🤣🤣 It's pretty fun, but it's most definitely going to take a lot of practice to get the hang of it. Granted, I was only playing it for about forty minutes or so, but the lowest score I got was 11 something. I ended up having to switch over to a CX40+ too, as I thought I was going to end up breaking the joystick that came with my AFB12G, which feels pretty cheaply made. I'm going to play it more this evening to see if I can get a better hang of it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done. I am around the same score playing this week. Last night was Q*Bert time. I need a lot more practice there.

bigfriendly Posted August 17 Share Posted August 17 Have you tried Boing? It's a fantastic Q-Bert clone that I actually enjoy more than the 2600 Q-Bert port. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But since I acquired my 2600+ I’ve been playing it and I might add it plays very well on the 2600+ Edited August 17 by MrChickenz 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the thought of QBert, but whenever I play I end up pressing the wrong way at some point and jumping off the play area. 🤦🏻😬💁🏻 I just can't seem to get how it works, it won't stick in my brain. I know there's the turn the joystick diagonally method, but nah. I'll keep trying. Does anyone here own QBerts Qubes? Do you like? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use the ProLine controller and hold it slightly turned in my left hand. It works very well, IMO. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But yeah loose carts are running for around $100 bucks on eBay. Another great thing about Boing is you don't have to worry jumping off the play field like you do on Q-Bert. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
