Another week - Another HSC game This week itīs time for a disc throwing game (canīt be that many), yea ofcourse itīs Windjammers from Data East / Deco. Iīm sure that the Eccentric cat will have many interesting things to tell us about this game in the GAME OF THE WEEK thread, see link below and good luck with the scores...
* Play whichever version you like: NEO GEO AES / NEO GEO CD / NEO GEO MVS / MAME
* Difficulty: 4 / MVS Setting
* Lives: Default setting
* Credits: 1
* Multiple runs as training is of course allowed. Also if you manage to surpass your previous score then just post it and Iīll update the first post.
* No cheating with any kind of UNI-BIOS is allowed.
* Miss-using bugs or glitches in games in order to boost you score isnīt allowed and if discovered will lead to disqualification of your score.
* No cheating in Emulators such as autofire, Pausing or infinite lives are allowed
(or any other effect you can use in emulators to make the game easier, score higher etc)
* Photographic proof is not needed as I believe that we are all honorable people. If you like though you can attach a photo or a mini-clip with your highscore.
* How to present your highscore to make my work a lot easier, EXAMPLE:
User nickname: Score: , Character: , End level: , Difficulty level: ...and other facts
There will be no closing dates for the different HSC threads. They will always be there ready to accept new challengers. But I will start to award the winner a medal as soon as scores are posted. And as I said the challenge will always be there.

Oh man, by going for the new high score I just was reminded how tricky this game actually can get when playing against CPU. There are a lot more tactics and tricks to learn as it first seems.

Great! I will try to do a better record on week end
It's nice to see you prefer Wessel, he's really too slow for me!
Haha, Wessel's awesome!
I mostly pick him because of his hilarious German quotes (GEEWONNEN!). Another thing I like about this game is that all character voices are actually dubbed in the corresponding languages. I don't know many NeoGeo/Arcade games so far that have implemented this feature.
I'm already looking forward to get on with this challenge. Keep on rocking!

Yes, you are right, the italian of "Loris Biaggi" is funny for me too
"energia!", "tiro a vortice!", "bravo!"

Mmm... i think i need more time
I definitely comprehend that, it's getting rock hard from Stage 3/4 onwards.
But just take it easy.
By the way, did you know there's a Windjammers Doujin remake called Crazy Power Disc? I just found it recently but haven't played it so far. Looks pretty good for a fan game if you ask me.
