Chris++ Posted June 13, 2002 Share Posted June 13, 2002 Oh, are we talking about ANY system?

King Atari Posted June 13, 2002 Share Posted June 13, 2002 A friend and I used to play the PC (CGA) conversion of Double Dragon so much in high school that we could complete it without losing a credit. Ah, I remember that conversion. I also remember that Data East used it in a campaign to show that Bad Dudes was better Double Dragon. Of course they failed, but it still angers me.

Cassidy Nolen Posted June 13, 2002 Share Posted June 13, 2002 No one wants to play me at Monkey Fight on Super Monkey Ball. I am really not that good at games; I think thats why I learned to work on them, so I could be around them and not have to show off! Honestly, best ever scores were always beaten out. Best at Kaboom: 6000. Best Ms. Pac (arcade) was 250,000. Best Galaga (arcade) 350,000. Best Robotron (arcade) 145,000. It helps if you have the machine, because you play best in your boxers at 3 in the morning. Really, buy one and you will figure out what I am saying. I can now destroy the Death Star on Hard my first time through Star Wars (cockpit- same one as in Philly, thanks again to Stan for movin' her!). Whats all this about wives and power supplies? Look what ya did? Moycon has bologna all over his keys too! Dude, you're getting a Deli! Cassidy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joel D. Park Posted June 13, 2002 Share Posted June 13, 2002 I'm pretty great at Forbidden Forest on the Commodore 64.. I dunno how I would hold up against some of you hyper active guys though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ze_ro Posted June 13, 2002 Share Posted June 13, 2002 Oh, I almost forgot... I used to be freakin' amazing at Alien Vs. Predator for the Jaguar. I had it down to the point where I could beat the entire game with the marine in about an hour (without rushing), in one sitting... for the predator and alien, I could beat it in about 10-15 minutes It was weird... eventually I got to the point where I was just using the shotgun to kill everything, and it wasn't even very difficult (Predators are a breeze with the shotgun!) --Zero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris++ Posted June 13, 2002 Share Posted June 13, 2002 YEAHHH! That game RULES! I wish I could find it for less than thirty bucks. I got moderately good at it, but I had to give it back to the pal who'd lent it to me. CF Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krisjohn Posted June 14, 2002 Share Posted June 14, 2002 Rampage, I forgot about Rampage. I used to be able to play that literally forever on the PC. The trick was to focus on eating people, rather than demolishing buildings. Can't remember if I ever got to an end in that game -- does it have one? I've played a lot of Gauntlet in my time too. I had fun last year playing the Gameboy version of Gauntlet on my TRGpro (Palm) using the Liberty Emulator and state-saves. I think I've still got that savegame around somewhere -- got up to at least level 50, just playing a level or two at a time over a few months.

davidbrit2 Posted June 14, 2002 Share Posted June 14, 2002 Gameboy Gauntlet on a TRGPro? That's insane! The game is fairly slow paced to begin with. What kind of emulation speed were you getting on the TRGPro? I've never tried Gameboy games on mine, but I can imagine it would require a significant amount of overclocking.

What kind of emulation speed were you getting on the TRGPro? I've never tried Gameboy games on mine, but I can imagine it would require a significant amount of overclocking. It was overclocked to 32MHz (normal speed is 16MHz) and I was running Gauntlet at probably 75% of full speed, no sound. The batteries don't last long at that pace... That's why I'm tempted to pickup a Handera 330 -- it's the fastest Palm OS device that still accepts all my Palm-III add-ons (keyboard, camera, GAMEPAD) -- and it houses twice the number of batteries, meaning when you overclock it to 48MHz, it really doesn't care (also, when you plug in a power-hungry Pretec CF Modem, it lets you stay connected for more than 15 minutes) I've played the arcade version of Gauntlet on a Kodak DC265 digital camera using MAMED. Now, THAT is a twisted little thing to witness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adriana Posted June 16, 2002 Share Posted June 16, 2002 I'll kick anyone's ass at Kaboom! I can't play anymore without scoring over 10,000 practically every time. Somehow, I got better at it with age! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
