I even have dreams about it. I dreamnt last night that I won $600 million while playing it at a casino. Crazy stuff, eh? Anyways, I was wondering what your highest score is. Mine is in the ballpark of 7.2 million points or so.  |  IP: Logged Rich Granata Film Handler Posts: 61 From: Bethlehem PA USA Registered: Mar 2004 posted 08-25-2004 10:49 PM                     WOW..i mean WOW I just got addicted too in the past week. Luckily it is not at work. I only Play Games and Read F-T at home My highest is 19 Million. Its all about those extra balls. Keep aiming for that Hyperspace shoot (center post is a life saver). Get the Level 1, 2, and 3 commendation successively (middle set of drop targets) and you get extra balls. Then I really rake it in with the field multiplier drop targets. I haven't gotten promoted past Leutenent(3) yet though. I haven't had any pinball dreams, but crap...Im really addicted aren't I  |  IP: Logged Christian Volpi Master Film Handler Posts: 349 From: Arlington, NE Registered: Apr 2004 posted 08-25-2004 10:53 PM                        Thanks for the pointers!  |  IP: Logged Rich Granata Film Handler Posts: 61 From: Bethlehem PA USA Registered: Mar 2004 posted 08-26-2004 08:59 AM                     I sense sarcasm, but hey, your the one who had the dream.  |  IP: Logged Christian Volpi Master Film Handler Posts: 349 From: Arlington, NE Registered: Apr 2004 posted 08-26-2004 12:57 PM                        No, seriously, thanks!  |  IP: Logged Bobby Henderson "Ask me about Trajan." Posts: 10973 From: Lawton, OK, USA Registered: Apr 2001 posted 08-26-2004 05:41 PM                     My best Space Cadet Pinball score was 23 million. It's been a few years since I got over my addiction to that game. I've got a screen shot of the score somewhere. Now, I'm kind of addicted to the Shockwave version of Robotron: 2084 (you can play it and several other classics at midway.com). It took awhile to get used to using a single joystick to move and number keys to fire. The original coin-op just had two joysticks. I "rolled" the score (over 10 million points) in a game several days ago. When I was in high school it was nothing for me to roll a Robotron game a few times over. I would just play until I got bored. Then I would have to spend 15 minutes or so killing off all the extra men that built up.  |  IP: Logged Kyle McEachern Expert Film Handler Posts: 165 From: San Francisco, CA Registered: Feb 2004 posted 08-26-2004 10:09 PM                 quote: Bobby Henderson Then I would have to spend 15 minutes or so killing off all the extra men that built up. That comment is WAY more innocent than how I first read it.  |  IP: Logged Adam Wilbert Jedi Master Film Handler Posts: 590 From: Bellingham, WA, USA Registered: Mar 2002 posted 08-26-2004 10:13 PM                        yeah, whats up with those microsoft games that never ever change? How long has paint been the exact same crappy program? Why did they get rid of that skiing game that came with win 95 (or 3.1?) where if you ran into the dog he would piddle? Then the yetti would eat you. Anyway, back to space cadet: Why does it load a full screen "3d pinball" splash screen, then go to a dinky little window? And, it is decidedly NOT a 3d game. I can't play much past 10,000 points without getting irritated. For me, it's all about the yahoo games 10 Pin Championship Bowling  |  IP: Logged Emma Tomiak Expert Film Handler Posts: 238 From: Carrollton, TX, USA Registered: Aug 2003 posted 08-26-2004 10:47 PM                        Ski Free is the best game ever.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 08-27-2004 06:45 AM                        You are incorrect and should be punished...

It's catchy. Play it on the timer for big points. I like the pinball game, too. Very realistic. The actions are very much like the old pinball machines I used to play as a kid. If only they had a "Captain Fantastic" version!  |  IP: Logged Jeremy Fuentes Mmmm, Dr. Pepper!
