  2. All I see is what looks like an HP brand, but aside from that I have no clue as to the importance.
  3. Yeah I haven't played this game since I was a kid on my Dad's Atari 800. Can't wait to give it a go. Updated OP, DB, RSS
  4. Really...? Thats odd for a game not to show the high scores. Wonder why they chose to do it that way? Updated OP, DB, RSS

    I love MP3Tag.. I use it for EVERYTHING.
  6. Good! Glad it wasn't anything big Adultery would have to fix... Kinda weird something like that would happen suddenly if it's been working so far, to just start doing that to ya without a Windows Update. (microsoft is out to get us and stop us from making hi scores...)
  7. Oops, I knew I forgot something.. I updated the GOTM winner in Golden Axe and forgot to add the next game to the DB manager! Thanks for that Dz! Oh, I can talk small too
  8. Sorry, I guess I missed these when I was on earlier. Thanks for updating them GC!
  9. Did you try to retrieve backups? Maybe your data somehow got corrupted?
  10. 2 things... #1 - Dazzle.. are you sure you're using the most recent version? In fact, am I sure I'm using the correct version? I am using 1.1.5 #2 - Adultery.. Yung-Jedi submitted a score for Golden Axe that I added. I attempted to do the [QUICK SORT] to place him in 3rd, but the sort didn't take. It shows (at least in my screen) that he's in 8th. I made the correct placement in the official OP table, but the DBM didn't seem to sort it right.
  11. Sorry I missed your submission. Consider it recorded! - Updated OP, DB, RSS
  12. Thanks to all who voted for this game.. it received the most votes (11) compared to the next highest voted game "Bank Panic (7 votes). This game marks a special footprint in our GOTM competitions. It was exactly 1 year ago (this month) that we started our monthly competitions with Galaga (link). Many games and high scores have been played and submitted since that time, and our competition is growing pleasantly well. The GameEx High-Score Staff would like to take this opportunity to thank everybody for their continued support of this venture. We couldn't have done it without your cooperation, ideas, and competitive-ness (if there is such a word!). So on behalf of myself, GimmeClassics, and DazzleHP.. Thank you!

As a bonus Mame Offender; GC will be in contact with you regarding your special signature badge!

You can still play and submit scores and climb our Leaderboard Ladder. You just won't be able to earn the coveted Signature Badge of Honor!
  15. I remember him as Eddie Valiant (Who Framed Roger Rabbit), Smee (Hook), Mario (Mario Brothers). All good stuff, I'm saddened to hear of his passing.
  16. Nice submission! I can't believe I'm still at the bottom rung with only 300k I need to play more games. Updated OP, DB, RSS
  17. Bob Hoskins started out in theatre before embarking on a film career Actor Bob Hoskins, who was best known for roles in The Long Good Friday and Who Framed Roger Rabbit, and playing Mario, has died of pneumonia at the age of 71. His agent said he died on Tuesday in hospital, surrounded by family. The star was nominated for a best actor Oscar in 1987 for crime drama Mona Lisa, in which he starred opposite Sir Michael Caine and Robbie Coltrane. He announced he was retiring from acting in 2012 after being diagnosed with Parkinson's disease. "We are devastated by the loss of our beloved Bob," the actor's wife Linda and children Alex, Sarah, Rosa and Jack said in a statement. "Bob died peacefully at hospital last night surrounded by family, following a bout of pneumonia. "We ask that you respect our privacy during this time and thank you for your messages of love and support. Source BBC NEWS
  18. We never owned the Atari 2600. We had the Atari 800 computer. I remember playing it on that, but don't remember it being so bad. But then again, now that I can emulate it, I still haven't bothered to play it again.. Perhaps it belongs where it lays.
  19. Doh! You beat me to it! I was just about to post about it hehe! http://news.msn.com/science-technology/diggers-find-ataris-et-games-in-landfill
  20. Update.. I didn't order it, but they shipped my package using Amazon Prime's 2-day or next day shipping. I got them on Wednesday! WOO! Since I've been "under the weather" lately, I've had a chance to really relax and enjoy them. @Tom I answered my own question; these have both. I don't see a 16x9 option, and in a way I'm glad. The show was not shot in 16x9, and any method they would use to accomplish that would either be a DIGITAL frame extension (would most likely look terrible) or a Digital Zoom and Crop (which would cut a lot of the top and bottom of the frame). I really like the new effects, but it's nice to have the old version there as well, and the ability to switch between the 2 on the fly. I'm a bit disappointed in the 7.1 audio. It's gotten better as the first season goes on (I'm on Disk 3 now). The first disk was really low volume as a result of the 7.1, and I had my receiver set on about 70 (typically I keep it in the 40-50 range (capable of only a max of 89). These other disks (so far) are at a more comfortable 50-60 range. There's not a lot of special features. The first disk had a 20 minute or so documentary about their HD transfer process, and how/why they made the updated visual effects. The first disk also had a special picture-in-picture of the episode "Where No Man Has Gone Before" with commentary. It also had a pop up card every now and then detailing backstories of characters. It would have been awesome if that was in EVERY episode, but it's cool what they've done. This next disk had a 12 minute interview with Leonard Nimoy about his recollections of Spock. It also appears to have (though I've not watch them yet) another picture-in-picture for the 2-part episode "The Menagerie". All said, I'm really enjoying this set, and look forward to completing it! I think I've also made up my mind as to my next purchase. The movies are cheaper right now than the 1st season of TNG, so I think I'm going to get them next, and wait to see if the TNG season drops in price. Quick question to ya'll... Does anybody know what special features are available in the sets? I like special features. I'm torn on which version to buy. There is a 7 disk set (6 movies plus a bonus disk) available here (link) but then they also have each movie seperately like here (link). It looks like the single movie format only has 1 disk to each movie too, but lacks the 7th bonus disk. Also, the price for the individuals is about $16 each but the box set is only $24... So I'm wondering if the bonus features (like documentaries, deleted scenes, etc) are cut from the box set, and that's why it's so cheap.
  21. Dude, she's old enough now; I would SO love to see Selena Gomez as Leia. The other guys (especially Bieber), need to just go away, period. Anyway, Disney holding the reins to Star Wars may or may not be that bad. They own Marvel now, and everything "movie-wise" they've churned out so far has been great stuff. Disney's just footing the bills. I also liked Frozen. It's a huge leap forward in CGI animation. Granted, 25% of it was music, but that's Disney for you. I really liked the "Let it Go" song, and the shop guy in the mountains was my favorite character.
  22. I dunno, I thought Indy 4 was pretty good. Granted, it wasnt nearly as good as the other 3. Perhaps its a sign of the aging of the main characters (Indy, Marion) and the creators. I really dig the whole crystal skull thing, there's some (as some believe) fact to the whole story. I watch Ancient Aliens alot and they've talked about it there. When people talk about making a sequel, let's not forget that SOME sequels are better than their first. Empire Strikes Back, Star Trek II the Wrath of Kahn, etc. Granted, those movies were release pretty close to each other, and didn't have 30 years gap. Goonies II is (from what I understand) only in the "idea" phase. Star Wars Episode VII however IS in production, and it DOES take place 30 years later. So we'll have to wait and see how well a gap of that length pans out.
  23. "Best of Both Worlds" (part 1 and 2 )
  24. Ok cool. I'm still like crazy excited about it.
