Star Wars [Marathon]

[Russ J]

Got a nice 41.000.000+ score on my SW on New Years day (were playing for around 6hrs 19mins) filmed the lot on my camcorder...

I were going for my highest score but sadly fell short of a few mill

The video is in 11 parts so do you want the whole lot upload to Youtube Dan (for your high score chart on your first post) or just the last 20 minute clip ? (it'll take forever to upload the whole game to youtube

)

As David rightly points out, once the catwalk stage "clicks", you can just go on and on, and the game becomes a piece of piss. To those who it hasnt clicked with, they just look on in bewilderment as the barriers are just a mess of color and lines to them.

Its a bit like riding a bike too, where you don't seem to lose the ability to play. I abandoned a game at about 3.5M last year at Nerg, and that was at least a 10-15 year gap since playing it.

got to admit about the 'riding a bike' part,I went to the last RGP party and went on James's Defender and to my surprise I had a really great game of it,I clocked the score at 1 mill and clocked the waves at 99 and I haven't played or even seen a Defender in the flesh for easily 25 years either

I just settled back into the game as if I only played it the day before

Saying that it did take a few months of playing my SW to 'find my groove' I just couldn't get over the 3mill mark

Ignore the 41mill i've got a rather larger score today (05/01/2014)

A nice 62.000.000 +....

Took me around 9 1/2hrs to get and I smashed my own personal best by 7 million....

I do have the whole game on video so i'll upload to youtube...It was done on 'Hardest' setting with 6 Shields start with 1 Shield bonus....

The game ended as the crosshairs cursor started to jump around on his own (must have overplayed the game

) anyway I were more that chuffed that i'd finally beaten my personal best that I got around 30 years ago in Brighton on the pier on a cockpit SW

I had er....a plastic jug near to hand for a 'number 1'

(only went the once as well

)

I'd just been for a good big dump before I started the game so I were ok on that part

(well you did wanna know Michael
