just wondering how many folks have ever completed Arkanoid ? its been a few years , but i have managed to finish it a few times , the last stage has a guys head , a knights head , and he spits out little diamond clusters , while you have to rebound the ball of him alot of times ,, there is a good way to finish him ive worked out . it ends from memory at around stage 33 [ i might be 1 off here , it`s been a while ]
 
I managed a couple of times, but always choked on Doh. I'm pretty sure you can't continue when you die on his stage...

Is it basically the same boss on Revenge of Doh and Tournament Arkanoid?
 
I did it a few times years ago, not without using continues though. When you get to Doh there are no more continues so on the stage before once there were only a couple of bricks I would kill myself off so I would have the maximum number of ships for the last screen.

With Doh ,as soon as the screen starts you quickly rebound the ball once , dodge the first spray , then get the ball up the side of the screen , so it bounces off the top of screen , back down on his head , it does this pinball style action for a bit ,getting vital and many hits on him , while you only have to dodge his spray , then if the ball comes back down say on the RHS, , as it is just coming down , you have time to stay diagonally away on the LHS ,, this keeps the spray away from the ball , as he only spits out the spray at you , then go across and hit the ball back up over his head ,he doesnt have time to spit more at you whilst you are going back over . another rebound session on his head will kill him , that is then the end of the game .

I dont know , i havent played them , usually i dont like follow up games thier never as good , but im sure not all are flops ,,
 
The best I've done is beating it with losing about 6 or 7 men. To do it without losing any is quite an achievement. Typically you always get a few freak bounces off those stinkin' floating enemies a game. I thought it was unavoidable...but I guess he proves me wrong.
 
Wow , im off to work now , but i stayed to watch Zack beat Arkanoid ,, I didnt think it was possible to do it without losing 1 man , that was totally INSANE , i know what it takes to beat the game , but not without loosing a few men #@$& !! nice one .
