Richardhead | 2,825 Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 Haven’t played this in a long time. I should have plenty of time tomorrow to put up a decent score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bearcat-Doug | 5,105 Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 I dunno about @Gloves and @mbd39, but I'm still burned out from last week and haven't even gotten started on this yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I haven't started either. I played way too much Yo Noid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gloves | 11,840 Administrator · Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 Same, played this for like a half hour on Sunday to see what it's like and that's it. Finished up Medal of Honor and now I'm playing GTA San Andreas. Need to just chillax for a bit and not worry about competition for at least a few days.

More weapons More power ups Ability to toggle weapons Warning signs Plane Mode I accidentally read the manual and now my spy beak is wet. Also, will def be popping in my Spy Hunter for ColecoVision sometime soon to see how it compares... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably start Thursday so I can run it nonstop through the weekend. Yie Ar Kung Fu is next week, but I think all I have to do is post a score to win the beat em up championship.

The pizza contest music from Yo Noid was getting stuck in my head today. That's how much I played it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's weird that pushing A on controller two pauses the game, while the start button appears to do nothing. These controls are more confusing than Raiders of the Lost Ark for the Atari 2600.

The letters O,S and M appear on the top right of the screen. When you have more than one you can switch weapons with select. If you blow up you lose all of your secondary weapons.

You might win the genre title by being the only person that can figure out the controls. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is weird trying to watch the score while driving and shooting.

Yeah, I've been needing Twisted Metal 1-3 for a while. When I can get some cash for fun, I need to just buy those three. They were all classics of my childhood, they just got to be so expensive a couple years ago. 1 hour ago, Bearcat-Doug said: It's weird that pushing A on controller two pauses the game, while the start button appears to do nothing. These controls are more confusing than Raiders of the Lost Ark for the Atari 2600. According to the manual the Start button summons the weapons truck. I've been pushing start as soon as I see a wide stretch but I don't know if that's required or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it's always shown up for me shortly after a stretch when the road widens. I see it every time, but I do hit the start button every time too. I can experiment and NOT hit it to see what happens.

I thought you may be able to solve that with an expungement if you ever wanted to check out the great white north, but it looks like even a dwi 1st is never expungeable in Ohio, (per a quick google search only, this is NOT legal advice). Pretty harsh Equally harsh is spy hunter. I played for 10 minutes last night and rage quit.
