Analog controls for Arkanoid

from stephen krogman (skrogman@bellsouth.net)
Believe it or not, I've been experimenting with finding the correct analog controls to play Arkanoid for a year now and it's still virtually impossible no matter what I change it to, it just doesn't respond quick enought to catch the ball when it zooms accross the screen. I mean, just look at the scores on MARP?. The only player that is doing something that no one else can figure out is German Krol. I find it hard to believe he can score 700k+ with a mouse unless the sensitivity is perfect. Hell, I even purchased a Twisty Grip spinner and couldn't get the darn thing to work either. Otherwise I would have had scores for all the Arkanoids well over 1.2M by now. I have a record of 1,466,640 in the arcade and plan on beating it this coming Twin Galaxies Masters tournament I'm attending in Weirs Beach. I will be facing my competitor who has claimed 1,582,000 he did just a few weeks ago. We'll see what happens.
