Tonight I installed the REV2 eprom in my Asteroids so I could use the High Score kit, and now the game seems harder than it was with the REV1 eprom! I can't even get through the first wave without losing a ship now...

Anybody else think so, or is it just me?

Isn't the difference between the revisions the frequency of the appearance of the UFOs?....

As I recall the all time record was set on the version in which the UFOs appear more often so that the lurking technique accumulated points at a faster rate.

My high score is only 37k but I haven't played the game much. Need to work on my skills.
 
I need to try and beat that score again.:eek: when your shooting rocks try to just shoot the ones that are going away from you, and fly out of they way of the ones that are heading at you.:D
