Embarrassingly for me, the score wasn't good enough to make the table, so in spite of a no-miss on level 1, I didn't get to see my %age

Just adding a pic since I couldn't get any improvements. I need to stop playing to save my own psychological health. Hate this game just as much as I suck at it.Battletoad wrote:Battletoad - 655,630 - 45% - MAME

I think this might be my final score b/c I've got other work I need to do and it took me too long to get this one

Re: STGT'12 Week 2: V-V
The problem is the Mega Drive version isn't an exact port of the arcade game; it's got a number of differences from the original, just like how Grind Stormer arcade differs from V-V arcade with bombs instead of powerup meter, faster bullets, etc. For instance, the box in Stage 3 drops a 1up it seems in MD V-V whereas in the original arcade you have to not destroy the large box in order for a 1up to appear later in Stage 5. There's also this enemy in stage 1 - it's missing a whole set of bullets it normally fires at you in addition to the destroyable missiles, etc. That's all in addition to the screen size being changed, some other changes in enemy behavior/patterns, etc.Dex hasn't stated that the mega drive version isn't allowed...
Considering the hardware the MD version's a good port, but it's too different from the arcade version to be acceptable in a scoring competition.

It's pretty much a given that if you're playing in this tournament, unless it's otherwise stated in the first post, you should be playing the arcade version either via emulation, or the actual arcade board if you own it.AmidstStorm wrote:Dex hasn't stated that the mega drive version isn't allowed...BareknuckleRoo wrote:Hate to be a party pooper.Grunthos wrote:Grunthos - Team RGF - 128,380 - ?? - Megadrive VV

Re: STGT'12 Week 2: V-V
Apologies to the rest of my team, but I have to drop out of the tournament this year. Shortly after it began an unexpected shift occurred in my life and as a result I have lost a lot of the free time and energy I had. Best of luck to everyone still participating.

Seems like I got a ton of points from the stage 4 boss. Shame I couldn't beat it - and never will. Another game I shall never play again!

Sorry for the poor score again, just didn't get the time.. would have easily broke 1 million if I had a few more hours.

First time I've ever played this game.
And it looks like I suck at it.
