In the Zone

  This is going to be a really quick post. I was playing Super C on the old NES last night recording a high score for Twin Galaxies and I hit the zone. The rules state you can't use codes, so I started with three lives. I beat the game around 15-16 times, racked up a new record score of near 3 million, and earned so many extra lives that I reached 100. Instead of displaying the 100, the counter read AO. Anybody ever seen this before. Reminds me of Super Mario Bros. after you break the 99 lives barrier. Damn tape ran out though due to the VCR's timer that was wrong. I want to try playing it again, maybe next year at  Funspot in front of a referee so I won't need a damn VCR. Anybody out there ever hit the zone like this before? I'd love to hear about the times you've hit the Zone.

The only time I've ever been "in the zone" is when I'm playing a FPS and I get a large kill streak. But that's really cool what you did.
Too bad your tape ran out, though. But hey, if you've done it once, you can do it again.

Thanks for the vote of confidence. It does suck the tape ran out. I wonder which FPS? I remember times playing CSS and 007 GoldenEye when one of my friends or myself would go on a killing spree. Knifing people for the win in Counter-Strike Source GunGame is also quite satisfying, even to watch sometimes :)

Yep, CS and CSS, GoldenEye, Halo, Quake III...

Ahhh... The good ole days. 007 Bunker levels: I like to close doors with windows in GoldenEye when people are chasing me, then shoot them through the windows;D

I wonder if they will ever release Goldeneye for xbox live, I heard RARE had it all ready to go but had some issues with Nintendo.

I've heard the same thing Daniel. I also hear it's on Wii now. Don't have one but would love if I did. Anybody play the new Punch-Out yet?

Can't wait to get my hands on that game, you wanna talk about some fond memories. I just hope they dont get too weird with new characters.

I think I saw a weird Disco guy or something but most the characters are from the original NES title.

I heard something about split screen too. A few new characters help, thats for sure I think I saw that disco guy aswell. I think the split screen is for multiplayer but is that for versus mode or something different? I think the game releases up here in Canada on the 18th.

Split screen? I think you're right about that. You're right about the release for U.S. and Canada. Disco Kid, that's the guys name, kinda forgot. No Tyson this time:D Too bad.
