High Scores



Many games today have eschewed the once standard practice of scoring points in games. Other than sports games, we just don't see them much. This page is a tribute to those oldies. I have posted all of the high scores I could find. Some, like Pac-Man for the Atari 2600, are definitely not accurate, as I recall "flipping" the board after 100,000, but I'm trying to be as accurate as possible. Scores with a NEW! next to them mean that I have beaten my old high scores that were set some 20 years ago. I don't even remember some of these games, so not all records will be broken. Some games I couldn't find records for, even though I know I played them a lot and had good scores. I may play them now and post whatever scores I get. Can you break them? Links to emulators and roms are on the right. See what you can do!
