21004 isn't much of a high score. Oh, wait!

 

[giantkeeling]

I've got Phoenix and i'm rubbish at it! My high score is about 77,000, or 244,000 with the 'trick'.

 

[Fuzzy]

I've tried dozens of times on my Phoenix PCB to do the trick without success. First time I tried it on a 60-in-1, I pulled it off, never to be repeated. What the...?!

 

[JohnBud]

The trick ???

 

[backflipper]

I think it inky works on an early rom version or???

In that video, the 200,000 score is done at 1 minute!

 

[backflipper]

I have done it but only on the romstar roms as in the video...

 

[backflipper]

I mean amstar!

 

[forcefulfil]

I watched the vid from Backflipper!
so what you shoot the aliens and split them in half from the left hand corner?

i honestly wasnt aware of any cheat so to speak,yet i watched the score go massive upon splitting the aliens on the second level.

maybe ill have a go again today and report back,and theres me thinking she was good

bloody cheating woman

wait till i tell her

 

[OTTOTHEMADANDEVIL]

From what I remember you have to kill 3 birds on the second board as there flying away from you all in a row for a bonus score.... Without googleing I think that's how its done...

My Phoenix has the G G I corp board, and it certainly works on that. It's bloody hard to do though, i tend to get killed trying to pull it off!

 

[smarty]

My son who's four did this once, I had my back turned and when I looked back a minute or so later he had over 100K in points, I wondered where that kind of score came from

 

[OTTOTHEMADANDEVIL]

My Phoenix board is unused at the moment, Id love to make a Mini cab to stick it in so I always have it running.........

I really dont have time for another project........ or do I????

 

[virtvic]

I did it once on my Phoenix trimline, which now resides at the RGP lair. I really wish it had Hi score saves on it!

Think that's a GGI corp board too.

 

[OTTOTHEMADANDEVIL]

Phoenix trimline...... I don't get married for 6 months.... Im sure I could get it sorted by them!!!! defiantly the way forward!!!

I wish they did a save kit for the original board but im led to believe one doesn't exist.... YET!

 

[OTTOTHEMADANDEVIL]

Ive never really been able to do the trick but even so, this score is embarrassing!
I think I need to leave this in the cab for a bit and get practicing!!!!
