Barnstorming: 34:14

(I played this one a lot as a kid and actually remembered quite a bit of the course--avoiding birds in the course is another matter)

I haven't played Dragster before, so I'm going to have to learn that one.

Sorry, but no pic. I don't know what the problem is, but sometimes I'm able to upload a photo and other times I get a message saying error or that my jpg file is too large to upload. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to possibly remedy this :?: :?

I had the same problem for a while. I have a Sony Cybershot and it has four picture modes: 14M, 10M, 5M and VGA. The VGA mode is the only one on my camera that creates a file small enough to upload on here. If you don't have a VGA mode, then I'm sorry to say I've completely covered my technical expertise on the subject, and this will be no help at all. Posted Image Posted Image

Thanks, Scrabbler. I don't know of a VGA mode, but I'll consult my camera manual.

Shaved a hair off my time for Grand Prix: 56.92

I'm able to upload this picture file because it's under 2 MB in size. The picture I mentioned in the previous post wouldn't upload because it's 2.5 MB. I don't get the discrepancy between jpg file sizes.

That photo is huge. Paste your photos in your paint program and reduce the size (probably to 15% of its size would be good enough). I always edit my photos in Paint even though they are taken on the smallest size my camera offers just because they don't need to be that big to see the score.

Thanks, Miss 2600. I'll try it on my "Kodak EasyShare" program.......

TWO NEW SCORES;


Grand Prix 0:52.57 Did not crash once, only slightly hit the brake twice.

Barnstorming 33:39


MAKE THAT 3 NEW SCORES,

Dragster 5:74

Dragster makes no sense, it seems like all you need to do is completly skip gear 3, to get to 4, and pop a bunch of wheelies without blowing the engine. :P

Thanks dude, only 2 seconds from the Todd Rogers record. :twisted:
I don't think I can top my 52 sec. time though! Got some "time" to try... another week and a day.

Congrads on the 56 seconds, you got the patch too! :cool:

I think I like Grand Prix the best of the 4, it really can be addicting to keep truckin' on and on... trying to find spots on the track where you can go full speed. Fast stuff!

I probably like Barnstorming the least, I find it difficult to improve. I found new ways to fly inbetween the birds but my time is only 1/3rd of a second faster :x

Isn't it? It's the most under rated game on the system IMO
