Title: Flash Gordon new top score
Post by: Crashramp on August 15, 2015, 07:03:23 PM
At long last I finally have the top score on Flash Gordon back!  The other day I knocked a mates top score off my Flash Gordon which has been on there for almost 2 years so I'm very happy.
The previous top score was Pintoxicated's 1.685 million and while I'd come close a number of times I'd always fall short. This time I had it on my second ball. It literally felt like I had it on a string, I couldn't loose a ball and if you've ever played FG you'd know that's a very rare feeling. Anyway balls 3 to 5 kicked my arse as usual but it didn't matter.

You're welcome anytime Rob. FG is a great game but the play is brutal, ball times are rarely long which is one of the things I love about it. You have a good ball and it feels awesome.

Ha ha, Now that I have the top score back I'll have to whack the "out of order" sign on it next time your over so i don't loose it again.  <.>

Wow, thats a grate high score  ^^^   Flash Gordon is a very unforgiving game, its a calenge just to keep the ball in play.
To date I have not had many high scores on my FG,,,  well done   ^^^

Thanks Pinpal,
This game generally kicks my butt so it's great to have a good game once in awhile.

Well done Adam! A lot of the games from this era were really unforgiving, good for the operators I guess!
