GimmeClassics Posted September 16, 2013 Share Posted September 16, 2013 not a fan of this qbert lol i played all the games and didn't switch the dip switches Hi wolfman: you can play Q-bert at default settings (see post #1) > you don't have to change / switch the dip switches Some of our other hi-score games do require you to change some settings. We're are following the Twin Galaxies settings for each game.Just see post #1 of each hi-score game thread to see which dip switch settings you have to use Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wolfman24 Posted September 17, 2013 Share Posted September 17, 2013 yeah i was lucky that wonderboy 3, 1944, and qbert didn't have to switch lol still can't get gameex to work might just give up on it i like using mame and mess directly anyway, i downloaded mala and didn't like it cause it didn't list the roms i had just all of them.

Tempest Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 The game is designed for a 4-way diagonal stick. If you don't have a diagonal stick, it is not an intuitive game to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is how it works:> = going down diagonally right∨ = going down diagonally left< = going up diagonally left∧ = going up diagonally rightThe game is designed for a 4-way diagonal stick. If you don't have a diagonal stick, it is not an intuitive game to play.If you play it for a short while you don't even have to think about which key you have to press. It's just getting used to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtkiii Posted September 18, 2013 Share Posted September 18, 2013 I find it easy on a keyboard but love the feel on my Cabinet...I just suck at it. I would try to go for second but there is NO WAY I can get to #1...there is a point when I am on Stage 2-4 and I feel like there is 8 bad things on the screen and me...forget it!

ehuonder Posted September 19, 2013 Share Posted September 19, 2013 Yes, the jump from 34K to over 100K seems insurmountable... I could see improving my score by maybe another 5-10K, but 80K???? Wow! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As i'm using a pad i might just turn it 45 degrees Originally i was trying to use the diagonals on my pad which would result in major brain spasms - i don't like feeling drunk unless i'm drinking Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hansolo77 Posted October 1, 2013 Author Share Posted October 1, 2013 And this month's Game winner isstephen - 111,230 (link)Congrats! GC should be in contact with you shortly with instructions on obtaining your GOTM winner's badge/signature. Wear it proudly! That being said, I'd like to take this opportunity to remind everybody that you can still take advantage of playing this game and posting highscores. While you may not be able to earn the GOTM winner title, you can still beat out Stephen's score and claim 1st place. It will help you bolster your position over on our overall leaderboard (link). But you don't need to be in first place to have a good ranking; simply posting any score will earn you some points to get on the board, so join in the fun and play with us!

hansolo77 Posted October 3, 2013 Author Share Posted October 3, 2013 My score is a bit late, but as they say "Better late than never"Score: 2,800Initials: HANProbably shouldn't even bother posting it, considering it's the absolute lowest and most ridiculous score ever. But hey, least I participated right? I just have a new found respect of Stephen, that's all I have to say.Updated OP, DB, RSS 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GimmeClassics Posted October 3, 2013 Share Posted October 3, 2013 My score is a bit late, but as they say "Better late than never"...or as we say in Friesland (a Dutch province): "Better let dan net"I actually don't speak the Frisian language but I can however understand and read it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
