| What's your score in Galaga? |
| << < (5/8) > >> |
| DarkDraco:
with the fast shoot hack i can beat it while sleeping, with the normal double shot i average 400-500k. pretty much after like level 20 it doesnt get any harder and the levels kinda repeat. so it just a matter of when you start getting tired of play and start wearing down that you mess up and die |

I have a customer who has an original Galaga dedicated with the dip switch set for rapid-fire (which allows about 2 or 3 shots on the screen at once) and doesn't allow a score above six figures. When I was there working on some other games, he had a double ship, tons of free guys and was over 500,000 points. Had to come back a few days later and noticed the high score was 999,990. Wonder how long that took? And he wasn't using the no-shoot trick either. |

I was under the impression it took a special IC chip on original Galaga's. I'm not sure if player 2 allows scoring past 999,999 but it has 1 more digit than the player 1 side. |

1.28 million at Enfield Tenpin Bowling, 1984 on a Galaga upright. One of the best days of my life. |
