Not sure if I really have the free time/skill to really deem this worth doing.... but what the hell, I signed up! Maybe I can get lucky and no one else will want to play the crappy games like I enjoy playing ;)

There hasn't been as much PC Engine submissions on the site leading up to this contest as I'd like, so the competition in this category hasn't been that intense so far.

Also worth noting: There are separate rankings for gameplay using a real console and using an emulator, so you can target achieving the top score in either category (or both).

Twitter: @SeriousAtari. Can you beat any of my high scores?

He is... serious.  I remember his intro- seriously memorable.

Seriously generous contest, mate. If I didn't suck at video games I'd totally be on board... sadly, i just buy them to put on a shelf (to impress the ladies).


Yes, anyone who knows me knows that I am Serious.

Something I an striving to accomplish is to turn game collectors into game players. I want no game to gather dust on anyone's shelf (or the protective covering/wrapping that the game may be stored in).

This is my purpose in life; my life's mission.

Join me.

Ah, you, with the serious introduction who then went quiet for awhile.

http://www.pcenginefx.com/forums/index.php?topic=17090.0

I remember ya. You've returned, and boy, with quite the raffle!!! I would've strongly considered participating but I went and bought it with the 20 man group buy jtucci managed to pull off for $70 a pop with shipping a few weeks back. But anyhow, +50 TurboKarma for you for such generosity...if you're serious, that is...
