From when I first played DK (when it was new :o ) right up until a few years ago, I thought you could only jump to the top platform of the shortcut on the elevator screen. In fact, when I first saw the trailer for King of Kong where Weibe had the patterns drawn on the bezel, I called ---That which is odiferous and causeth plants to grow--- on his path of reaching the lower platform... I thought the jump was too far. Weibe's way is actually much safer and easier than the way I had always done it. Both jumps have to be perfect to make the top platform. It was just the way other guys did it at the arcade I was at. I never once saw anyone jump to the lower platform until King of Kong. --- End quote --- If you read the instuction card on the game, that jump to the bottom platform shouldn't even be possible...it says Jumpman's jump distance is only 2 sections of framework, when that jump is actually 3. And speaking of ways to make a game different, try playing Joust against each other instead of cooperating...makes the game completely different ;D I was in a tournament once where that was one of the elimination rounds. Winner was last one standing. |

Standing around will also result in death. |

Heck, we didn't even do cooperative Gauntlet. It was just a race to steal treasure and goods. It was better to shoot the food and potions than to let someone else get them. |
