    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:

    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!!!!

    Maybe... if you have time between getting turned into astroid dust and crashing your lunar lander :stretcher: :thumb2:

    If I have to be saddled with minimal skills, I'm ok with flying and blasting. 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....

    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.

    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.
