Have to represent for Power Stone world

Nice one CD! I think... I don't really have anything to compare it to at teh moment... Would you consider that a very good score? If it's not then maybe I made the achievements too easy...

CDAGES, I haven't the slightest idea how you did that. Care to share, or does an arcade gamer never reveal his secrets?

[pcwzrd13]

Nice first attempt there Alec! I'm sure it's better than I will do. I haven't tried yet but I'll probably give it a try tomorrow. I stink at this game so I'm not expecting anything better than dead last!

BTW, that score nets you an achievement and ties you up with DCUltrapro for 2nd place in the overall site rankings! Congrats!

You gotta drag the matches (even if it means reviving your enemy for more money opportunities every once in a while!). Also, take full advantage of the tomb stage. The final Room in that level has a slot machine game with a chance at winning some free money.

Well here's my first entry (45,704). This puts me in third place! Woohoo! I died a million times at the final boss so I'm sure that reduced my score significantly.

I see. I'll keep that in mind. And pcwzrd, I'm not sure, but I don't think continuing actually reduces your score.

Hmmm, I don't know for sure. I just assumed it would but I could be wrong.

Power Stone 2 is easier than the 1st one, I'll give it a shot.

I think that continuing lowers your score because it resets the matches you have already won to zero (superior left corner).

EDIT: Yep, continuing also does not save the money you gathered in that level where you died, which makes sense.
