Great choice Opa! There is a slim chance that we could be playing Gunbird (1) next week, as it is one of my nominations. How good would that be

I would even say 400k at this point, or maybe even 350... it's absolutely nails on Level 4. You would have to have had a perfect game and some bombs to spare up to that point to get anywhere near the boss, and I know I always cane my bombs and lives on the 1-3 bosses just to kill them. |

What about not using the power up weapon till it fills up further, then using it on the end boss for 1-3. Or is it not worth it? I've been trying to do that but keep on losing silly lives which resets the power level. |

Does the power up weapoon get more powerful? I just assumed it meant you had more attempts with it, I must admit I do like the idea of that weapon, extremely powrful but you have to risk getting in close to use it. |

325900![]() Slightly better, but the level 4 boss is a bitch. Anyone who beats it deserves 200 points this week. I'm off to Las Vegas tomorrow, so its my last post. Hopefully I will get a chance to play the last couple of days of next weeks game. |

Tavia only seems to go to level 2 . but i#s much more powerful than 1 I think smart bombs are also more powerful on higher levels It's pretty straightforward to survive level 1 without the need for powering-up (ie holding down fire button 1) or using a smart bomb |

Actually,I got her to level 3 by not using any r=extra weapons up to the 2nd level boss - level 3 is pretty powerful and seems to be the max |

Opa: after you complained about almost every game played last season, I was curious to see what you'd nominate that would be so much better. And it was Gunbird 2. If I had a pint here, it would be being raised right now. An excellent choice, fella.

Thats it. I will never ever play this ever again. I've worked out that the robot bloke is about the best for a higher score - but its still not very good at avoiding all those bullets! I would have enjoyed this if it had been a little more friendly - but its not - so my dummy has been thrown out of my pram :angry: :angry: :angry: ![]() 148100 |

252500 now for a small rant about the scoring system (again) assuming that the scores stay as they are right now for gunbird 2, frazer will have 398.13 points Leezer will have about 316 points and everyone else assuming will have lower scores than mine.already frazers score is almost unreachable to many and we are only into the 3rd week. now lets pretend that the scoring system was different, say top score = 30 points, 2nd place 28 points,3rd place 27 points and 4th - last place 1 point less each place.so no matter how much bigger the top scores are you would only get a few more points than the percentage method. if this scoring was in order :- frazer = 88 points Leezer = 83 points whoever is 3rd would have about 80 points, 4th place about 78 points etc... making it a lot closer and worth trying that little bit harder, i know that this is suppose to be a fun league, but wouldn`t it be a bit more fun if we didn`t know who was gonna win after the 4th week or so. also if it was just a bit of fun/giggle league why bother posting scores in the first place, why not just everybody play the game and have a good laff bitching/whining/encouraging each other.and just generally discussing the games. tbh the present scoring system is ridiculous just look at frasers burgertime comparison to everyone elses scores :- 42% higher than second place wtf??? anyway i will look forward to everyone elses opinions on this subject (hopefully a few of you will agree with me) |
