Goochman Posted January 18, 2005 Author Share Posted January 18, 2005 I've played at 60Hz and have to admit, that the time runs faster.But the "floating" of the game is more playable. The cause for this might be the higher frame rate. The game is faster, and it can be played faster (more precisely), because the movement is a 'step more' realistic. I played on PAL and didnt break a sweat getting 107K again - The timing makes its alot harder IMHO since 1 mistake can end your game in NTSC where on PAL it might not be as precise but the clock isnt working against you as hard - Just my observations.

Bunsen Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Our scores at our monthly WGL meeting where we play ATARI games Mad Butscher 102500 Wizard 102400 Grisu 100750 Bunsen 97050 Grisu's screenshot was bad, so I cannot attach it. That night we also played Pole Position with the usb wheel and the usb cartridge of ABBUC It's much more harder to play with the wheel, but it's really fun For comparison our scores with usb wheel: Wizard 87950 Bunsen 63450 Grisu 50900 Mad Butscher 43950 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bjk7382 Posted January 18, 2005 Share Posted January 18, 2005 Here is my pitiful score. I never liked this game on home consoles and the turning in this version is particularly bad. 86,050 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Jefferson Posted January 19, 2005 Share Posted January 19, 2005 You are very close to the max possible score on NTSC - I would bet 106,xxx is the max for a perfect no break no crash run Can you get around that big corner without braking? I always crash there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always crash there. It is possible to do, however with cars its impossible - I dont brake but hit the LF side of the road to slow down Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shawn Jefferson Posted January 21, 2005 Share Posted January 21, 2005 88050. I didn't bother taking a picture since it's so far out of the top three anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RJ Posted January 22, 2005 Share Posted January 22, 2005 101,600 On the hairpin turn it may help to shift into low for a sec or two- also try braking lightly. I usually make it thru unscathed using these methods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
