118300; around level 430 it starts repeating...god I was bored.

Had no idea what most the indie games were. And maybe I missed it but it doesnt seem to tell you the names of the games you missed. Lam.e

I gave it a shot when it was mentioned in the other thread. As Ack (?) mentioned there are lots of issues with the way it accepts answers. There was a picture of Blastoise (? the blue cannon turtle) and I put simply 'Pokemon' and it took it. Yet a few questions later it was a DKC game of some kind and it wanted a really specific answer for that one. I just stopped at that point the other day.

I went ahead and gave it another try and got to a Duke Nukem screen and couldn't get it to take any permutations. Then I looked away to try and figure out some more cockamamie variations and it decided my game was over even though I had at least 30 seconds left. It also told me my score was "7." even though I was probably at 7 thousand something at that point. So yeah, twice it screwed me. I'm done.

I got stuck on quite a bit of the newer games. Newer games, mainly the shooter/1st person shooter games.... like fucking Halo. Can you believe that? Halo?? Yeah, I know it's sad.
I don't play shooter games really. (it's okay, I eventually got the damn thing.)

I feel like I should. Anyways.
I think my highest was around 95,000-ish.

Level 168 ish. Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island... nope... yoshi's island... nope ... super mario world 2: yoshis island... nope... mario world 2 yoshi's island ... nope ... super mario world 2 ... nope ... super mario world... correct ... wtf... It was clearly Yoshi's Island. I didn't have enough time to get the next one. Arse.

Seriously, this game needs to be coded better.

Some of them you don't have to give numbers. Saddly I could only get around 9300 points max. Too many newer games on there I don't know.

I think the best I saw was 4900. Is it bad that of all the games I couldn't recognize, Leisure Suit Larry was one I could?
