New Feature - Arcade

[Jeff]

I added a new feature to the AMD Users site: An intergrated arcade.

You can access the arcade by clicking on the Arcade block on the right side of the main screen.

OR

You can click here: AMD Users Arcade (http://www.amdusers.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=arcade)

I'll eventually add the arcade as a menu option.

Enjoy!

Jeff

PS: I'll be adding more and more games!

[Beerknurd]

yea that's fun......

[Jeff]

I couldn't tell if that was sarcastic.

[Beerknurd]

no it wasn't. :lol:

[vaughan]

Excellent - Galaga is my favourite - Star Fighter

[Jeff]

I am trying to find a "REAL" version of Galaga...I really enjoy that game as well

[Beerknurd]

www.addictinggames.com

this site has loads of games. I'm not sure if you can put them on here though....

[Empty_5oul]

its gd jeff, keep the site changes coming :D

[AMDave]

great job Jeff !
Lik'n it LOTS !

[gamer007]

Good job. We are all addicted to them. :lol:

[Beerknurd]

that damn slingo game is PISSING ME OFF!!!!!!! I'm gonna beat the piss out of that Damn Devil!!!!!

[Jeff]

lollolol

[Beerknurd]

How the hell did you get that score?? You only played it 2 times. I swear I've played it at least 20 times and haven't beaten that. Every time I think I may come close the damn devil comes up and takes half of my money. I'm gonna kill that little red bastard.....

:twisted::rightfighter5:

[gamer007]

lol I hardly get the devil. I have got all the numbers removed once.

[gamer007]

Yay. Record holder for snakes. :)

[Jeff]

Beer,

I've played many many games of Slingo. However, if you don't exit and then reopen the game, it counts as one sitting.

:)

[Beerknurd]

Screw Slingo... Beat that Donkey Kong score.

[Jeff]

Nice Spank th Monkey score

[Beerknurd]

It's a talent....

[AMDave]

must be all thart practice from spanking the Rabbit, Kermit !
:shock:


:lol: :lol: :lol:

[Empty_5oul]

lol, how you get it so fast. i even tried changing my resolution to see if making it smaller meant i could move the mouse further quicker but was still getting top of about 200's

[Beerknurd]

I'm just talented.

[Empty_5oul]

is that your only talent though :?

[Beerknurd]

Yep... I'm only talented at spanking the monkey. :lol:

[Empty_5oul]

error in V accade, if you complete the game you cant send the score. i got 800 up to about level 8 but at the end i didnt get the option to send what i had.

[Jeff]

Which game?

[NeoGen]

Error Authenticating User - Possible hack attempt!


I got this message when I was going to upload the score and comment on a Jason's Pong record... :?

[Beerknurd]

I got the Jason's Pong record now.... :twisted:

It's only fair...... It has my name in the title.... :lol:

[BigDawg]

i found a flaw on v force, i completed all the levels with a score of 800 twice, and neither time did it give me the option to submit score

[Beerknurd]

yep it just happened to me too.

[Jeff]

I am going to remove VForce from the arcade.

I think I fixed the Error that you had, NeoGen.

You score should have still be recorded anyway

[Beerknurd]

My 24 Hour Rally score kicks much butt. :lol:

[Empty_5oul]

thx jeff.

found this online is this what we are turning into:

Man achieves highest ever score on 25 year old coin-op Galaxian. No one cares.
Gary Whelen from Duckinfield, Greater Manchester has been playing Space Invaders style arcade classic Galaxian since it's original release in 1980, much to the despair of his wife Trish. He has now beaten the world record with a score of 399,290 but says he will not stop playing until he reaches a score of a million. Obsessed much... "You've got to put some effort into it and some time into it." states Mr. Whelen, although to be honest even we game freaks here at Upwire are of the humble opinion that 25 years playing the same ancient video game may be a mite excessive.

[Beerknurd]

I am determined to beat that damn aim game. I play it until my hand shakes. It will happen soon enough.

[Empty_5oul]

how are you scored on it, just through time not shots fired and or missed ?

[Beerknurd]

I think it's time and accuracy.

[Empty_5oul]

i have tried missing multiple shots but still hitting ocassionally or just shooting slowly with no misses and got pretty much the same score. so i think it must be a bit of each

[Beerknurd]

I don't know... But I'll beat it. That Jason's Pong thing was making me mad yesterday, then look what happened. :)

[Empty_5oul]

you did pretty well, it gets fast though and i always seem to move the curser off the screen and then die because of it.

[Beerknurd]

Yea that's one problem with it. You kinda have to get lucky and hit the 500 bonus alot. That helps too.

[Empty_5oul]

lol,

jeff whats with the link appearing in a different place for my newest high score ??
space shooter ???

[AMDave]

...and it's really frustrating when my firewall throws up a popup infront of the game I'm playing and ruins ( :roll: every time of course :roll: ) the go that would have got me top score... :evil:

[Ototero]

I've just scored 64,005,850 on Star Fighter and the f**king game has locked, so I can't submit the score.


:twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted: :twisted:

[Empty_5oul]

lol, i'd imagine that is a little annoying.

[AMDave]

Haha.
At least I fixed my firewall pop-ups.

Hey. Stuart. !
I've got an idea !
If it's an XP machine maybe you can like take a snapshot of the system and save it to disk and store it for another day when maybe they find a cure for "frozen" programs or something ...
:lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

[Ototero]

I'll cryo you with ideas like that ;) :lol:

I tried to screen print and post 'cos some won't believe me.

Anyway, last night I did it again with a score of 11 million :shock:
(and still 60 lives to go, but it was bedtime so I let all the lives die :cry: )

[AMDave]

now I know you're bonkers :lol:

I think I'm going to have to lay off these things tonight.

I am getting so crosseyed playing Pong that I can now see over both shoulders without turning my head :D

[Beerknurd]

Stu, what game are you talking about??

[AMDave]

beer. see previous page.

Star Fighter
http://www.amdusers.com/modules.php?name=Forums&file=scoreboard&gid=2

[Ototero]

Start Fighter,

Beer, even my 8 year son has more score than you, 971,000 :lol: :lol:

[Empty_5oul]

i can see beerk's point on that game, i like the simple ones with no instructions you can just learn yourself. that you have to know what the things mean as they drop - i have flown into things that blow me up too many times (i have only played it a few times though)

[Beerknurd]

Start Fighter,

Beer, even my 8 year son has more score than you, 971,000 :lol: :lol:

I don't like the controls. Using the arrow keys and the spacebar are annoying. That's why I haven't even played it that much.

So what your beating me in that game. I'm beating you by 13 wins. :lol:

[Empty_5oul]

lol nice comeback

[Ototero]

I've tried all the games, I'm CRAP at everything except 3.

I can't even begin to imagine how people have scored so high on some game.

Take that slap head one, I got 197mph, you got 900 ish.

How the F*** did you do that ????

[Beerknurd]

There's a cheat. :lol: Some people have gotten up to 1700. But I can't figure out how they do it. If you wanna know the cheat, Just google "Spank the monkey cheat". That should bring it up.

[Empty_5oul]

i treid it and got a bit higher but i cant master it.

anyway jeff - would it be possible to have a total time played on games ?? i see i have an individual counter so it would be a total of this for each member and then the total of that.

[Beerknurd]

I can't get any higher than 858 now. I don't know how I got 904.....
