Wow. Only four more games after this week until the tournament. This year really flew by.

I know right! Even Gloves is now being referred to as the "new old guy"

I joined up in January. I can't believe it's been so long already. So much has happened since then, I have to say this is a great community!

What the heck Ninji, do you live in one of those geodesic domes in some California commune or something?

This dome is my home,
It's not a palindrome,
Playing games all day,
Near the San Francisco Bay,
Taking pics of my screen,
Do you see what I mean?
The commune's kinda cool,
Once you adapt to the rules,
Now it's time for "lights off",
Therefore, PEACE OUT, BOSS!

It's not too terribly difficult as long as you get powered up and stay powered up. It's like a hundred times easier than Star Force so those who are good at shooters will crush it this week.

Anyone who can get over two million at 1943 can beat Twin Cobra practically with their eyes closed.

Ohh, the NES version was ported by Micronics.
That explains why I enjoyed it so much and also explains the terrible music!

It's astonishingly good for a Micronics port.

I don't even mind the music.

On vacation this week! Gonna try and sneak a run in on Saturday night when I get home. I played it and beat it during the off week using 2-3 credits. Pretty easy game for a shooter but takes a while.

I will have to put another run through this during my 4 days weekend, starting this Thursday.
I left too many P bonuses on the field on that paltry run of mine.

And phase 2 of my evil plan of evilness starts next week! Mwahahahaha!

Precisely, which is why I have to up my game.
My current score is pretty pathetic.

We're already over the halfway mark on posts when compared to BTDD (46 here, 72 there). I guess everyone has been playing this instead of BTDD or just waiting to jump into the new game! Lots of early scores. I agree with mbd, you have to stay powered up. It will be interesting to see how this week turns out participation and score wise.

I've only reached stage 5. But it looks like stages 6 through 10 are just a tougher repeat of the first five.

Haha! Eazy E! We want Eazy!

My name is Mr. E,
But you can call me Eazy,
Playing games while I rap,
No, that ain't sleazy,
The top 8 this week,
Will all be juggernauts,
Will Skinny beat Gloves?
I tend to think not!
Skinny's got skills,
He is the GRINDER,
But little baby Kai,
Is a reminder,
That life gets busy,
Though we want to game often,
Life keeps moving,
Til we're laid out in a coffin!
The '17 NA season,
Has reached its peak,
Best of luck to all,
Who compete this week!
