First off, yeah, I know I suck at these games compared to some, but whatever...

:)

I've managed to beat my personal best high scores on a few games as of late...

Last night I FINALLY got past the 200K mark on Gyruss. 201,300 is my new high score. I'd been trying to get past that elusive 200K mark for about a month now...

A couple days ago I managed to best 200K on Galaga 88... getting 213K and change...

Ms. Pac Man I also finally beat 200K after trying for months... and then I did it again right afterward!

Finally... Frogger. I've been playing Frogger since I can remember. I've only ONCE ever gotten an extra man (20,000)... so when I got one day before yesterday it was exciting. I ended up with a score of 34,310 I do believe it is... easily my best score of all time.

Congrats on the Gyruss. I've been reaching for that 200K mark myself, falling short at 188K. So close!!
 
Congrats. I just beat my Donkey Kong high score last night by 50k - I got 171k.

Congrats. Breaking 30K on Frogger took me a while, and was very satisfying. I'm barely ahead of you. My high is 36K and change. I've managed to pass the 5th board a few times now, but have probably gotten 4 scores in the 32K+ range now.
 
Its all about beating yourself (ayo)!

I'm determined to top 300k in Donkey Kong by the end of the month.
 
My brother-in-law is currently living with me... my family is moving from the cesspool called Victorville, CA to Idaho and he came up to start work a little early. That means he's parked on my couch for a month and all his stuff is in my garage taking up my work area so I can't work on games... which leaves me to ... PLAY THEM (well, the ones I can get to any way).

Last night I was at 168K on DK when the doorbell rang, dang pizza delivery guy, I had a hammer on a barrel level and got distracted enough to lose my last man.... :(.......

I would have easily topped 180K maybe even 200K, ah... back to work tonight and this weekend....
 
Thanks for posting those scores. Now I have something to try and beat tonight while the little woman is at work. The Ms. Pac I can beat easy but the other two will give me something to shoot for. Il try the frogger first cause I have not played that one in a very long time.

Tell me about it. And as games get longer the chances of interuptions only increase. "Blah blah is on the phone and they want to know blah blah freaking blah blah blah."
 
Nice selection of games and scores. So what planet did you make it to on Gyruss? My high score is 209700 and I was one stage from Earth. I have set 3 personal high scores recently but the goal is to reach Earth!

I wanna say I made it to the first stage past Mars...

BTW - Is Earth the end or does it go to Venus and Mercury?
 
One other tidbit of trivia I learned is that if you shoot all 4 waves in entirety (1000, 1500, 2000, and 2500 bonus), even if you leave ALL of the 5th way alone, the 3 bonus score guys won't come out. To maximize points, shoot all the guys in waves 1 to 3, then leave 3 remaining for wave 4 then shoot all of wave 5... the 3 bonus orbs will then come out. I tend to try to leave a few more than 3 of wave 4 as trying to get wave 5 oftentime kills some of the guys from wave 4 leaving you ass-out when it comes to the orbs.
 
I've been playing Gyruss off and on since the sonofabitch came out and still never made it back to Earth. I kind of hoped there was some kind of ending/intermission at that point before it threw you back into the mess.

Still want to make it at least once though!

Yeah, I know what you mean. 226550 is my new high score as of tonight. Still can't master that last warp to Earth. I am getting closer and will do it soon!
