98/100: tempest and things..

the low down on tempest -
first you have to play normally until you reach the red V shaped level.
when you reach the one after that (a square-ish V) you can die or (read
on)
you have to get a score over 170,000 for this bug to work (the red V's bonus is
something like 180k so its easier to just die and play a new game. in order to
get 170k+ on one quarter requires you get up into the yellow levels which is
kind of tough). anyway, once you have 170,000 plus point the key is to get the
last two digits of your score to a specific number and then just die. you can
jump your score by two points by shooting 'spikes' and by one point for
finishing off a spike (you work it out).
some interesting two digit numbers are
12, 17 - 40 free credits
05 - dumps you into playing the attract mode (more on this)
00 - freeze game in attract mode
01 - reset game (puts you into the maint. screen)
46 - changes level you can start at.
48 - lots and lots of 'ships' (mode on this too).
you set up your score and die, then wait for the game to cycle through
the attract mode, and then things will happen. 17 just starts adding credits
and you can play normally, but you can have much more fun with 05. this just
dumps you into the game tempest will be playing with itself. at this point, ALL
the strange things you can trigger off will go on while you are playing. if
you can hit 48 your ships will start multiplying, up to about 255 (guess), and
if you can do this, you hit 01 and wait after which your game will 'normalize'
and you can play all day to some outrageous high score. if you hit 00 though,
the xDgame will freeze up on you. anyway thats a rough outline, and it only
works on older versions. how did you get your own tempest machine DJ?

highspeed isnt a game, its a way of life.

Try out our new modz, compliments of Cheap Shades. The N:eed Acronyms is now
a separate database-type function with search string and all so if you're
baffled, you can search for the specific acronym without listing the whole damn
thing. Use it well

100/100: Farrari

I usually play the Farrari game. I've only gotten up to around 67 grand.
The game allows you to sit down and get a stereo sound with the whole machine
moving with you. Such as a car would do.
As for U2 concert....I'm still waiting for it to hit MN. Idol was great.
So was the Cult.
