Congrats Yoshi! That's freaking awesome dude!

No Noise, I haven't seen King of Kong although I know who Steve Wiebe is and I want to check it out. Not that I need inspiration to try and challenge some of the scores out there! :wink: Even if I can't get any real high scores at least I'll have some damn good time trying right? Looking at trying to get high scores on some classic arcade like: Pacman, Donkey Kong, Mario Bros, Galaxian, Galaga, etc. and of course I'm curious what the records are for those games and I'm sure there will be others I'll be interested in. Thanks again guys! 8)
I am addicted to video games, especially retro gaming from my era. I have: NES, SNES, Nintendo 64, Gamecube, Gameboy, GBA, Wii, Sega Genesis, Sega CD, Dreamcast, PS1, PS2, Xbox, and Xbox 360. I have probably over 1,000 games in total for all these systems combined. Yes, I need help and I wouldn't have it any other way! This is my passion and hey my wife still loves me!!

After I read some stuff from Billy's side of the story, I'm not sure I want to watch it.

it's a great movie though. It's entertainment for an hour and a half.

The director left out even worse stuff on Billy because he felt it didn't fit in the movie. I'd love to know all the details.

I really wish Twin Galaxies would revamp the layout / color scheme. I can not stand navigating around there. Its ugly and not intuitive at all.

I think our own YoshiEgg25 has some records.
Crabmaster2000 just set the speed-run record for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (NES)>
Thanks for the plug!!

Like others have said you need to have the full run recorded to send in for verification. The FAQ is pretty helpful, but if you have any additional questions about submitting or about rules for the game(s) your attempting send the ref for the appropriate platform a PM. I've talked with 3 different refs there and they have all been very quick and seemingly happy to answer all my questions.
