I wasnt ever any good at this.....
http://web.archive.org/web/201305102...lash/qbert.swf I just got 2975,i guess that isnt bad! |
Thank you for the link! I have loved that game since I first saw it in Minneapolis airport in 1982. I forgot how many home versions I have here.
|
23,395 in my first try, in "easy" mode because I have not played it in 15+ years. A "correct" controller would make all the difference, but the on-screen arrows in this version do help.
|
Yes i agree its quite hard using the keys!!! (I keep jumping off by mistake :D)
|
that is the only coin op game i mastered , could stand for hours with it , only went as high as level 9 and all you were doing was raking up points and lives.
i doubt i could play any other version and stay alive , that joystick was just right. mike |
That coinop was unusual. The joystick is one of the only ones I have seen mounted diagonally.
Even more unusual, the cabinet had a solenoid placed inside so when Q*Bert fell...the solenoid would smack the cabinet inside making a little >bang!< after disappearing offscreen. Very creative idea, and an unusual task to ask of the PC board. |
Its incredibly hard to play w/o the joystick on the arcade game!
|
The Nintendo version of Q-bert had you hold the controller diagonally so its joystick moved in four "correct" directions.
I think the Colecovision version was the one I had the best performance with, getting to level 9. At that level, the whole game just about doubled in speed, seriously fast. |
There was a radio show to day hare in Austin talking about q bert.
|
Excellent :)
|
I just got 5100!! (Level 3)
|
Just got 5200 (Level 3)
I find its easier using the mouse to guide him!!!!!! |
I gave up. No damn good.
|
Yes its quite aggravating!!!!!! (Hard to steer him round the board)
