Just found a link to the latest in the saga - the "Copter" game!

Much harder than the others!

http://www.seethru.co.uk/zine/south_...opter_game.htm

My best (in about 10 tries) was only 646.

Ummmmm. Errrrrrrrr. *Scratches head*

I just played here at home and i couldn't barely get 500 the first 20 times or so. The score I got above was on the computer at work. It is a 400mhz Pentium. Mine here at home is a 1.4 T-Bird. Much easier to play on a slower machine.

So break out your 486's fire them suckers up with that blazing speed 2meg vid card and 9600 baud modem and let the wars begin.
