Centipede

[Arcade_Guy]

So I finally tracked down an original Centipede arcade cabinet here locally and for a decent price. My favorite classic arcade game!

Going to go pick it up tomorrow...

I'm hoping to practice up and get in the top 15 at least on Twin Galaxies International Scoreboard.

Like I told you before your nuts. You already have a cabinet that will play every arcade game there is and more. But whatever floats your boat ( and doesn't piss the old lady off).

I use to get the centipede stuck and shoot spiders to rack up the points. Been a while since I played that game, good find.

The good old trap method. Some dude did a marathon like that and racked up like 25 million points or something ridiculous lol

I've tried a couple times to set up the trap, but i can't ever get it.

I usually just use the tunnel approach, especially since twin galaxies accepts scores if you use that method. Currently Donald Hayes holds the world record... 7,111,111 points. Took him 9 hours. He's a beast.
I'm just trying to break the 100k range!!!

ok i'm going to stop being a total geek for a minute at least

where did you find it

[Arcade_Guy]

I cant believe she hasn't asked for a ring yet.lol

she has... lol

i told her instead of an engagement ring, i'd get her an engagement pinball machine. She didn't like that much 

I found it on craigslist. I love that place. You can find anything you'd ever want!
