Hmm ok i have some coments on some of the games we are talking about..(posted 9285 days ago)Arkanoid: This game is no marathon game for sure, cause the game ends at level 34! (I finished the game in our local arcade 1 hour ago so i know LOL) And the game doesn4t loop...
Burgertime:I4m no expert on this game, but i know that it will become EVIL as JD says it on later levels.. AND there is also a killscreen on that game I have been told.. (please verify this all of you Burgertime experts.. cause i have not been there..)
Joust:This is a marathon game for sure! (Not for me hehe) But i think there are only a few people that can marathon joust forever..But it is still a marathon game...
Bombjack: This game has no end, no timelimit, and the game will not be harder after hmm say stage 30 something.. If you are good at this game you can play almost fvrever... and Lord Gaz has proven to us that the hardest settings is not enough! I know with a little practice, that i can do it myself on the hardest settings..
Gyruss: This is another marathon game.. I can play almost forever on this game even on TG settings (I have not tried harder settings than that..) You only need some practice to learn the patterns of this game, and then you are off to play for a long time I can tell..The only reason that i have not uploaded any scores for this game, is that it takes forever to beat Beejays 5mil.. (About 5 hours) and i have tried two times with about 800k, and i feel that I have no time to play it again, just to get another maybe.. 1.5 mil..and then again 2.5mil and so on...
Mr DO: I know that people can play a long time on this one, but i didn4t know it was a marathongame.. no coments from me!
Qbert:This game is easy to marathon when you have played it a lot i think.. I have played for hours on this game (With default settings) on the arcade..
Gauntlet:This one is extreamly easy to play forever on! (at least it was back in 1985 on default settings) No comments, i can do a marathon game on this..
Bubble Bobble: There is a max score......
Flicky: Never played it..
Galaga: No marathon game for me, but there are at least two guys on MARP that can play it for at least 10 hours..
Nova2001:BBH has proven that this is a marathongame..
No more coments from me..
Just my opinions..
