• I have it for Gameboy. Got 81440, and 129 lines the other day. I think that’s a new personal record. Anyone else here play Tertris?


  • I think you would be hard-pressed to find a game less like A&A than Tetris, except for maybe Hungry Hippos, or Buckaroo.

    how long did it take you? :lol:


  • ive got it on my TI-86 calculator and i play it all the time. got up to 194 lines w/ just under 100,000 pts. but i think the level speed and scoring are different for the calc since its not a licensed version. 6 more lines and i’d have made level 20. :evil:

    TI-86 eh? Good one, I only had the 83 for my Pre-Calc class. If I remember correctly from the original, the lines on yours seem to be the same, but the scoring is probably different, because my old records were like 300,000.

    yeah, i gotta love my calc. its helped my keep my sanity through many a boring class. once the games got dull i would head into graph mode and draw famous landmarks/skylines.

    Good times…I programmed a few things into the 83 myself, the most complicated was a simple RPG-all it had was fighting and buying stuff. Not very good but pretty good considering I never looked at the instruction manual, I think.

    ive got a friend who lived on his calc. he’s programmed a casino program with black-jack, roulette, and a pointless version of Russian roulette. all you do is hit enter repeatedly until a random integer coding picks #1 (choosing 1-6). then a pic comes up of a russian solder bloswing his head off. its pretty funny and fun to pass around a group. :wink:

    he even spent 2 months in junior year working out a text-based version of RISK. every country was listed and assigned a #. he actually managed to write in a decent AI. it was awsome. took a million years to play though, i dont think he’s finished a game yet. :lol:

    Ha, I could do that easily. (except the Russian soldier and the RISK)
