I kinda like silver surfer now. Played it a good amount today.

Surfer ki....

Surfer kid!

That's good. Glad your enjoying it.

That graphic looks super serious when he gets hit, like someone hit him in the back of the head with a baseball bat, or if you've ever seen a woman get slapped in a movie, that's how he looks. When I first started playing I kept dying, then laughing then dying some more.

Lol I never noticed it. I'll have to pay attention next time I play (later today). I have found its bark is bigger than it's bite.

Trying to plan ahead - Bad Dudes vs. Dragon Ninja, is that a PAL only release? Is it the same as just Bad Dudes? Thanks in advance!

Bad Dudes vs Dragon Ninja is the full name of the game Bad Dudes.
We will be playing the NTSC version.
 

Ok awesome I already own Bad Dudes so I don’t need to buy it. Thanks!

Indeed. We're what, 2/3 through? Anything could happen. Some sleeper participants could wake up and shake up the top 10 as well.

Barrels snatched the 4th place for himself.

So I've got a question for tables, 8Bit, Glovsie and Bea. It seems you all are really good at every NES game. You all
just crush the rest of us. Like this year 8Bit comes out of nowhere and has a 100 point lead over second place. How the fuck do you all play at this level? What is your secret? The masses wanna know.

I used to have time to play 3, 4 hours per day, so it was easy to assimilate things.
Most NES games are either very simple, have exploitable AI or very easy to memorize patterns, so with proper time to practise, you can break them easily.

Was actually flattering, but I don't feel I've earned my place on that list yet. Hopefully i will by the time all is said and done. I can credit a few things to 100 pt lead tho. , 1.Haven't missed a week. It's my first year and had never played 70% of this year's line up so everything is fun and fresh, no burn out 2. Fully dedicated all gaming time to Only contest related gaming, nothing else. .approx 8 hours a week. .3. Lack of participation, some of my winning scores wouldn't have even been top 3 in other years. 4. self employed so, i have some wiggle room if i need to put more time into a game. .. And from just talking about it, I'm gonna leave work to work on my score. .. Edit.. Also drastically cut down on the drinking ,

I will update the main and genre leaderboards tonight.
