Too bad for me x2, since my only PCE is a GT and it doesn't play CD-ROM gamez.

I just throw my PCE CDs in my computar and play wiv Magic Engine (ripping the ISO = win + gud)

Preferred name: Aru-san (use this one)
Ranking name: TAMAKI

2 minute mode: 1,037,000pts.

Don't believe me? Look for 'TAMAKI'.

Props to that MELOT person (#84 and repping for the US of A)

What can I say? The game uses lowercased "o"s for zeroes:

Gunhed Special Version

Ed Oscuro · Post by **Ed Oscuro** » Sun Jun 22, 2008 11:53 am

Gunhed Special Version (2min)
Ed Oscuro - 310,780

Having a lot of trouble locking down a run consistently...I'm sure I can beat 321K though, just need a bit of luck and some more time.

lgb · Post by **lgb** » Mon Jun 23, 2008 9:59 pm

300K in Gunhed? Yikes! I never knew that was even possible. Maybe there's some scoring trick I don't know about. Double enemies or somesuch.

Alzadick Beginner Attack: LGB - 277.800 - Strike Form - [screenie]
Nexzr Score Attack: LGB - 417.480 - [screenie]
Recca Score Attack: LGB - 453.076 - [screenie]
Recca Time Attack: LGB - 4:37:52 - [screenie]
Soldier Blade 2 Minute: LGB - 548.500

Minor improvements. Could do better at Recca and Nexzr.
--------
Super Star Soldier 2 Minute: LGB - 340.900
SSS 2 Minute with Autofire: LGB - 466.000 - [screenie]

Take your pick, but I prefer autofire, as with it you can actually destroy things. Notice.

Meanwhile, I present the "Top Three Things I Said While Playing Psycho Chaser, In All Capital Letters":

"INFINITE SCORING... JUST AS PLANNED"
"...I LOST MY LAST LIFE TO A FUCKING POWERUP POD"
"THESE SAND WORMS ARE DRIVING ME NUTS, NUTS I SAY"

Well, ok, i'm not that good at shmups! Oh, sometime i'll post highscores of Star Soldier: Vanishing Earth, since I have it on Project64

M4R14NO · Post by **M4R14NO** » Sat Jul 05, 2008 4:48 am

Ok, here are some highscores for Star Soldier: Vanishing Earth for the N64:

2min mode: 7344578pts
5min mode: 20293494pts

*Look at my background image: a Virtua Racing magazine ad. Not very shmuppy, right?

And here's a highscore that my brother did (his score was better than mine):

M4R14NO, you know the game automatically fires when you hold the button down, right?

Also, you can change the ship's speed. Set it higher and just tap the stick.

Hmm...just have some patience, learn the stage, anticipate the enemy's arrival.

Yeah, I already knew the rapid-fire thing, but thanks for the tips. By the way, I didn't know that Hector '87 was released in the US as Starship Hector (I have it on the emulator NesterJ for PSP)

Alzadick, Score Attack.

I'll be more than happy to share any scoring techniques if somebody wants them.

lgb · Post by **lgb** » Wed Jul 09, 2008 3:47 pm

Be aggressive. Best trick ever.

LGB - 518.650 - Strike Form

Still missing a lot of bonuses.

Hello!

Just my new score on Spriggan! Score attack!

-Bridget- · Post by **-Bridget-** » Sat Jul 12, 2008 9:27 am

Bridget - Recca (score attack) - 435,361

My first time trying this game out.

Holy lunacy, Batman.

The NES should never be capable of that many sprites....

I'll be playing this alot, expect more score updates from me later. I'll give the other Caravan ones a try too.....

Post by **spadgy** » Sun Jul 13, 2008 1:00 am

Just got Star Soldier R...

Played it for a while and got this in 2 Minute Mode...

spadgy - 841,700

Now to work out how to raise it higher!

-Bridget- · Post by **-Bridget-** » Sun Jul 13, 2008 8:33 am

Ok, for Star Soldier R, 2-minute-mode:

Bridget - 915,900

I just got this earlier, figured I'd give it a whirl..... loving it already, heh.

Crazier than I thought it'd be.

And reading that page on Hudson's site about the scoring info deeeeefinitely helps. It'd be nice if the game explained all this stuff to you itself, but no......

-Bridget- · Post by **-Bridget-** » Sun Jul 13, 2008 8:55 am

Quick update:

Star Soldier R, 2-minute-mode:

Bridget - 923,900

Killing all of those flat things really quick, that take 8 bazillionty hits, isnt easy at all..... I think I can score higher if I can learn to take them all down quicker than I do.

Also, getting the bonus offa those 2 huge exploding orbs isnt easy either.

Star Soldier R - 2 Minute Mode - 926,300
I'm going to hit 1,000,000 eventually
