forest4585 Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 Thanks guys! @hansolo77 I'm all about having fun and supporting the community. I love competing at the arcade, but at home it's for fun and I look forward to playing some games I haven't played in awhile. @GimmeClassics No offense taken and I understand completely. Lot of people only care about scores: I'm the opposite. I love arcade games and I'm lucky I'm not too far from my favorite arcade, Galloping Ghost in Brookfield, Illionois. Time to play some Metal Slug X tonight. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forest4585 Posted August 21, 2017 Share Posted August 21, 2017 487,970 I took a break from Metal Slug X and played one of my best Galaga games in awhile. I know I'm capable of throwing up a million...just need to practice more. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansolo77 Posted August 21, 2017 Author Share Posted August 21, 2017 Not sure about using a trophy as a way to say thanks.. but as a reward? Definitely. It's the best I can do! You gotta give up some secrets! Updated OP, DB, RSS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rtkiii Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Yeah...Forest is good at this game. Remember when you could only get like 100k Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forest4585 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Best secrets I give is to study the way the enemies come out during formation. Also, memorize the challenge stages. I've put a crazy amount of time in this game since I owned it on the NES. Definitely my favorite game of all time...I have a marquee on my wall at home and my friend made me galaga figures out of wood :-) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

forest4585 Posted September 27, 2017 Share Posted September 27, 2017 807,690 - Stage 70 I took a break from Galaga 88. This is my personal best for Galaga, and hopefully by the end of the year, I can hit a million. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hansolo77 Posted September 28, 2017 Author Share Posted September 28, 2017 Wow you almost tripled your previous score! Was Galaga'88 just too much? I'm impressed buddy!

Just making sure; you ARE on the hardest setting right? Updated OP, DB, RSS I'm still enjoying Galaga 88, but I really needed a break from it ( I haven't been able to break 200,000 again). And yes I'm playing with the hardest difficulty...my hands hurt like hell today 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hansolo77 Posted May 26, 2018 Author Share Posted May 26, 2018 Always great to see an old game updated with a new score. It's even better when you're besting your previous submission. And you moved up 2 places too! Awesome! Updated OP, DB, RSS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
millerbrad Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 I'm just gonna hang out down in the +10 section with this 51,500pt score. Was trying to hold off on submitting until I hit the top ten, but holy crap my Galaga is rusty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
