I like that idea...

I wouldnt mind discussing some of the games, I had a few questions about some of them.

GTDawg 07-06-07 06:53 PM

So, the skidwrx game scoring system is messed up. Is that a time of 1sec for you or 1 minute for you?

If it's 1 minute, then I beat that score easily. I refresh the high scores and it says I'm #1 with 0.00 tied with you.

Eventually, all of these games are gonna have a high score by an exploit or by someone who is a god at the game and will be so far out of reach that nobody will ever beat them. I'd like to have a high score for a little bit =)

I think you're mean! :mad:

You stole my FLASH trophy... only one I'll probably ever get.

I'm the worse player ever. :donkey

Talking Poker 07-06-07 07:04 PM

So............... get better!

Talking Poker 07-06-07 07:06 PM

Yes, I knew that... posted about it already. I contacted the creator. Looks like there is a license available for the game, so maybe that's the problem. I don't mind paying a few bucks for it (if that's all it costs) - he has loads of other cool looking games on his site too. I'll post when I hear back from him.

BTW, my score was 48 seconds, I think. Something like that. I don't think getting around the track 3 times in one second would quite be possible. :rolleyes:

Robbr25 07-06-07 11:58 PM

I think its own category will be better. IMO

Talking Poker 07-07-07 01:11 AM

OK, I'll make a new Arcade section later this weekend and start threads for the different games.

BTW, heard back from the Skid WRX creator:

:eek:

Translation: We can either keep the game with no scoreboard support (it's ranking us properly, but it looks like the icon is stuck with me), or I can just delete it. I do like the game, but without a functioning scoreboard (competition!!!), meh... I'll probably just delete it.

LOL 500 each... wow that funny.

I can buy a playstation 3 for that price almost.

Robbie Robb 07-07-07 07:17 AM

Actually the PS3 is going to drop in price to $499 (I think it's CC that's already selling it for that price).

Invigilator 07-07-07 08:24 AM

The games themeselves are fun, but those that have a fixed high score that can be replaced are dumb. The first person to hit it locks it up.

Talking Poker 07-07-07 11:45 AM

Yup, I agree - like the Chicken Fling one, for example. I also don't like the ones that can be exploited, even though those are fun too if you don't cheat.

bunny 07-07-07 03:20 PM

This wasn't the DonkeyKong I was referring to.
 
What is the Donkey Kong version with the vines? Vines on first step, then electro things.... etc.



Backgammon would be nice to have, if possible.

MAYHEM45 07-07-07 03:41 PM

Donkey Kong Jr.

bunny 07-07-07 03:43 PM

TY. (Why do you have a gerbil in your avatar, May?)

TP - Donkey Kong Jr., please. :cheers:

Invigilator 07-07-07 04:50 PM

Tournament?
 
Would someone with the power be willing to start a Swingball tounament please?:)

Talking Poker 07-07-07 07:29 PM

Because it's . You've missed a lot of threads recently.

Haven't seen DKJr., but I'll keep an eye out for it.

Talking Poker 07-07-07 07:30 PM

Done.

4 players (let's see how much interest there is before doing a bigger one... and make sure it works), 3 tries per round.

omahilo 07-07-07 09:04 PM

jizzball would be a sweet game to add... when you have the 3 balls and you click to break the blocks and trap the balls.

Im sure someone remembers what game I am talking about.

Talking Poker 07-08-07 04:02 PM

OK, I finally did it. I made new threads for each of the games in the arcade.

While I was at it, I removed a few of the more lame games (or cool games with lame high scoring). This forum is all about competition, so I know people aren't going to like games like the Chicken Fling where everyone can get the same perfect score eventually. That said, I left Smack a Penguin and Duck Hunt because... well... because I just did.

I really like that Skid WRX racing game, but without any kind of functional scoring, it doesn't belong in the arcade, so I removed it.

If you guys really want that game or the Chicken Fling back, just say so.

Also, if there are other games you guys think should be yanked, post in their corresponding threads (not here). I could go either way on a few of them, but I figure keeping them around doesn't really hurt anything either.

Mr Eaton 07-22-07 09:22 PM

What's an arcade without pinball? Not much fun, that's what!


Seen any pinball games?

Talking Poker 07-22-07 11:34 PM

A couple, but seeing how I have an , I wasn't all that excited about them. :)

I'll see about adding one for you soon. I still have a few more Yetisports games I'd like to add first.

BTW - for future game requests, (it's easier for me to browse through them when they are all in once place). Thanks.

Wes 07-24-07 06:22 AM

Add some defend the castle or equivalent games please.
