Lol, indeed. At first I was getting scores in the 200,000-300,000 and getting close to being able to post a score...now with these guys at 500,000+ hehe the old reflexes are hurting!

Tip: Play with the fast shoot hack for practice. It will help you learn the entry patterns and polish your overall timing.

I had never played with the fast shoot hack until I built my mame cab. I could always get to 200,000 without it back in the day. Once completed, I was able to flip player 1 everytime with the fast shoot. That got old so I went back to the standard ROM and was consistantly hitting 500,000 and up.

 :angry: I want my machine back!

I think he means the cheat where on the 1st stage you kill all but two certain bugs, then let them fly by for 10-15 minutes until they stop shooting. After that, no bugs shoot at you the rest of the game.

Actually, I think he may be thinking of Galaga '88 where you score like 10,000 during the "Galactic Dancing" stages by just sitting still.

Mountain,

great to see you playing some games!
Instead of putting us all to shame with your mad build skills

I'm sure you could whip up a new Cab in no time, especially with your new friend in the garage ;)
