You mistime one little pistol headshot, then in the chaos fire one PIAT at a panzer and the next thing you know you have a room full of bodies. (Sniper Elite Resistance).

#10pscore I finally sat down and plugged in my joystick into my little Dell pc and put some credits in Nitro Ball. So far I scored 2019970. I like the fact you can win speedboats like a dystopian Bullseye.

In The Spy Who Loved Me, Barbara Bach should have switched roles with Caroline Munro and been blown up in her helicopter by missile because she is more wooden than Stomberg's table.

After watching Alex play Jump Coaster on his live stream I knew this game is not for me so I have skipped it for this month. #10pscore After watching this week's Bloggo's Pow! on YT featuring Wild Guns I really wanted to play BloodBros - please can you add it to the readers picks?

#10pScore I had a couple goes & thought I best post my poor score of 7020. Pacman has never been my bag and I am terrible. I remember one cab in an onsite arcade on a 2 week holiday in Cornwall in 86. Never played it because Tigerheli was next to it and Star Force 3 cabs away.

#10pScore Only scored 19020. I think my Hi Score table name says it all I feel about the game. The controls are stodgy, jumping sucks, springs feel hit and many miss. Hammers suck & always seem to catch me at the worst time. Baddies group at screen top & are hard to approach.

#10pscore I bought the Capcom Arcade 2nd Stadium for Switch so I could get some practice in on the sofa before I switched to MAME. Got to the falling platforms bit but the clunky jumping mechanics killed my enjoyment because I was improving. Switched to MAME & scored 16600.

#10pscore Not had much time to play plus with trouble emulating. Scored 186320. Knew I would have a hard time with the game when, on my 1st life of my 1st credit, I died to the 1st bullet from the 1st enemy. Sneaky little ships like to home in you when you think you are safe.

#10pScore I've only had chance for 3 credits so only scored 201600. I had Xmas off but I was ill with a cold/COVID for 3 weeks so I had interest in anything. Plus my dad has taken a turn for the worst so I've been busy with him. I really wanted to play this too.

#10pscore currently scored 11700. The analogue joystick is helping but still lots of incorrect movements causing many deaths or missed incinerations. I am struggling with understanding how the enemies move because sometimes they ignore you other times they appear to home in.

#10pscore only scored 37220. I got this score on my last game tonight. I only play Galaga on the PS1 while Tekken loaded and a couple of credits during the Timewarp arcade meet up. I failed to fight my urge to shoot that diving alien only to crash into it, time & time again.

#10pscore Scored 35600 on my 2nd credit about 3 weeks ago, managing to reach level 2. I've got further into level 2 since but nowhere near that score. It's too easy to have a bad run. If you look up "peashooter" in the dictionary it will read "Speed Rumbler".

A moai head has appeared outside my house tonight. It gave me quite the confused shock when I rounded the corner in my car after picking my son up.
