yes never had a 5200 but as the new players are kicking my behind over there thought I'd come and spread the pain :evil:

That's fine. I allowed the A8 version since it is exactly the same game and it's not one that everyone would have in their 5200 collection, but should. :)

Stepping up extermination efforts! I finally went down, but not until reaching an all time best. Surviving the purple hornet wave attack seems to help, as it clears the playfield in a big way ;)

I'm still playing and improving as well, just not by much. :)

235,470

I'll fire up the 600xl later and give that one a whirl as well. Of note: I've found that I have 2 different rom versions on the A8 carts. One has both animations on the title screen just like the 5200 conversion, the other only has one animation. None are protos, just regular released carts.

Unless something changes in the next few hours.. I am stuck at 278,412. I've done a bunch better and am thoroughly disappointed...

26,623 for the participation point for the bonus challenge. One run through was all I had time for.

My neighbor's WiFi signal is messing up my picture :mad: Is there a way to filter that out?

This is my best so far:
