I had a good game going last night on Asteriods! I know it doesnt compare to some of those here, but my high score was in the 60k range, then last week I boosted it to 86k. Last night I hit 85k with 4 ships left, just watching the score rise. lost 3 ships quickly around 93k, and started worrying that I wouldnt make it. LOL, I was so tied up in the game I didnt even know my son had been standing behind me watching until I heard "What the Hell?" when the score went from 99900 to 0. Ive heard of a lot of others doing it, but it was a first for me
 
Count me in the club that's never done this :-(

I have a long list of excuses, but for the most part it's been because I've always used a speed up mod board in my machine, so everything happens a little too fast and the saucer shots seem especially lethal.

I finally got a regular board, so one of these days when things slow down, I'll begin in earnest.
 
My top score since getting one in March is only 35k. Mind you I've only played Asteroids on the 2600 before and never the arcade. You should get the high score save kit. It fixes the roll over, and saves all 10 high scores.
