Missile Command TG Marathon WR Going On Right Now: Carlton At It Again

[DeLoreanRide]

He mentioned one of the things is that he cannot get more than 256 extra cities or the game will reset. That's why they're keeping such close track to his extra cities. When he hits level 256 the game rolls back to level one but it holds onto his score and his extra cities.

That's insane that people figured that out I have never played the game and I can see by the way hes playing it takes some serious skill.

 

[thebman80]

18.1 million

 

[thebman80]

After watching him play this really peaks my interest in getting missile command.

 

[NeP]

Almost 19 million!

 

[pookdolie]

I'll be firing up my cabaret too after watching a bit of this...

 

[p1899m]

is he still going? if so what is the current score?

He is still going, but they haven't said what his score is. Check the OP for the link to the vid...

10:39am cst and it says "live feed". I see a score of 730,000+. Man this hand/eye coordination is CRAZY. No way I can come remotely close to this kinda play, absolutley SICK! Just insane watching this... feel like I'm in an arcade from 1981 with a huge crowd around this game!

 

[osver]

They just said 37.7 million

 

[cleverlyj]

37.7 mil and he's being cooked breakfast as of right now.

 

[Lindsey]

37.7 milllion.

EDIT: Beat me to it

 

[taylormadelv]

Wild, he has so many bonus cites, the game is just going all by itself....

 

[spauldingd]

His previous high score was around 45 million according to Twin Galaxies. The #1 spot is 80 million. I wish him luck.

After watching the 1 hour documentary on his previous attempts, I just hope he isn't on the same machine.

The 2nd failure wasn't a hardware reset but a software reset. He thinks he knows how to avoid it now.

 

[cleverlyj]

based on how long he's been playing, seems like he'll have to go into tomorrow just to get the record. that's crazy!

edit: i've noticed on how on some levels when he would get a bonus city he will kill off a few cities. is that to keep the total count down so he doesn't go past 256 and hit the reset?
