I'm starting to appreciate this game more. Gameplay often feels like you're on the brink of death so there is some excitement in surviving for as long as possible.

I'm glad that I'm emulating so that I don't have to sweat getting a pic. It's not a bad idea to use an emulator this week.

It is definitely fun.
I am trying to go slower with the car, even though it nets me less points, but it gives me more time to react to the incoming cars. Seems to be working.

Slow way down for the helicopter if you have missiles (and if there aren't too many other enemies.) Let 'em hover right over you and a little in front. When you hear the bomb whistle, fire a missile and dodge immediately. You'll nail them almost every time.

The ice road is also a big pain.

Well, I have my rum in, my hands feel steadier.
Time to try to get a slight less shitty score.

I haven't been able to take a decent picture of my score! Maybe some vodka will help with that!😜

Try to also lose your clothes while at it.
I swear it improves your gaming prowess.

Drunk score update at page 1.
48,125.

As expected, being drunk, less dressed and going slower allowed me to do better, even to loop the game.
But I will have a hard time even doubling that score. This won't be my week by any means.

Better do better! I'm only 1k off that score and haven't put much effort in......
Just kidding! That score only came after a few dozen attempts and a lot of frustration. 😜
I can get 20k every time and then just run into everything.

I am not done for the week, but I just won't put too much effort on this one.
Can't drink enough to get my hands to the levels of coordination this game requires, so not much point in trying.

That wouldn't do.

Oh cool, my new goal is to beat Guillavoie, hahaha!   

I had to play Spy Hunter for a few days over many attempts before I got the hang of it.  It's all about not going too fast, knowing the best way to deal with each of the enemies, and sticking to that plan.

Score: 11420

I tried taking a score pic after game over and no go. The light score on dark screen just won't work for me. Extra life or not. Can't plug a second controller in on psp 😂
