I mean really.
when you play a EM the idea is pretty much to "roll over" the score. Then you write the score down on a "post it" and stick it on the back
glass.
Then you just try to beat that score. Shoot , that can go on for ever. Ive got one EM ive played for 30 years or there about, never have gotten tired or it. Of course out of the 14, 792 games Ive played on it I was probably stoned, drunk, or both half the time so maybe that helps.
Now I only party on coffee and maybe misuse my meds sometimes but that never gets me stupid enuff to qualify for being "one toke over the line" at all.
So when it comes to these Solid State games why do I just plain suck at them? Is it a curse layed on me by the BEEP himself? Did K7 monkey with my viagra or mess with the Soma dosage? Did that Viking guy burn me to the totem pole in another life? I dont know but man do I stink at these two games. First off Ive got this Walking Dead pro that I love to play. I have tried to load 1.6 code along with clelands but everytime I do the 1.6 code that shows when the stick is in the puter disaapears before I can download it when I put it in the game! Go figure that one out! Im gonna buy me a new thumb drive thats new and blank and see if it will load off the box onto the drive and then load it in the game.
Ok so I cant play the Walking dead for shit but I really like it. I have it set to "easy " and my high score is 300 and something. I know pitiful right? BUt it is a complicated game.
Now the other Solid State game is a T2. I really like this game. Bought it from a villager who I think gave me a bit of a deal in spite of how some people value this game.I mean it really does look new with one imperfection, looks like a bulb got too close to the plastic "glass" and melted a little circle there but you cant see it at all while playing and would indeed be a stretch to find when not in play. Now Ive got no manual and I dont think it can be programmed like a stern which I can kinda do without any manual at all. But this Williams game Id like to turn the "special" so it only awards extra ball and Id like to reset the stored high scores. Now I DID in fact score high enough to get my initials on the lowest High score but shit, I dont know how I did it only that I had the ball flying around and repeatedly hit ramps and such. But this game is a lot simpler then the walking dead pro.
Thats the end of my whining about why I stink on SS games but am not afraid to compete with anyone on a EM as long as Ive had reasonable time to play the game prior to a playoff with someone who knows the game.
Oops wait a minute, I used to do well on 8 Ball Deluxe but that game had a EM style layout.
Thats all from me, for today, so keep em flyin' yall and dont take any loonies in the change for quarters, the bank doesnt like them!
