Ok... so I realize not everyone had the privilege of growing up with the ultimate gaming console in the universe... the Atari 2600.. but not a single person has broken 100,000 WTF? I'm having a hard time getting motivated and sharpening my skills for a 1,000,000 point run when my OLD high score was more points that the TOTAL OF ALL THE OTHER SCORES. I'm a pretty decent player but not that good. So Astroids doesn't have pretty colors like Blocks 2, nor does is make cool sounds, but you get to BLOW STUFF UP. If that little saucer was a Z06, you wouldn't just let it smoke your ass and quit. So with all the "zone out" time available in December I recommend you get yourself a 4 pack of redline and a bag of cheetos, forget BLOCKS 2 and play a MAN's GAME.
Perhaps you could teach me Asteroids, and I could teach you your choice of about EIGHT other games? :dancing:
At a first glance I thought the Thread Title was Hemroids. lol Then I expected to see Hal as the first poster. hehehehehe:bottom:
BTW: In Space Invaders, you get to destroy ALIENS not just ROCKS. Now I ask - which sounds more manly? Come back when you've saved the planet, and not just blown up a lot of rocks and a couple of saucers. And don't even get me started on snake!!!!

I'll have to work on my invader score. :beerchug: Hemroids...Man's Game.... in the same thread... Where's Hal and those Q boys.... :yahoo::yahoo::yahoo::yahoo:
Puh-lease! You call yourself a shooter? Have you seen your Galagon and Space Invaders rankings? Come on man. Don't tell me you're just a one (or two) trick pony? Belly up to the arcade. Show me some skills. Signed, "JMatt, Leader of the Leaderboards, King of the Arcade"
I'm thinking of complaining to the sysops.... all those titles scrolling under your name has to be slowing down the forums!
You got me thinking, so I went ahead and set the new record in Blocks. If you need tutoring in that one, PM me. :king:
I think I'm going to quit my job.... can't play very well on my laptop here, need to get on the home rig.... :bang:
Like I say, I need the challange to bring my game to the highest level. Now go blast some astroids for me since I'm now #1 on all the games that fly and has a cannon. leasantry:
150,000 good shoot'n!! :thumb2: I was going to take a run at 6 digits but 150 might be out of my range.
