    Default Get a life, dude

    My husband has played so much Wii Tennis that the graph can't even hold his score any more.



    Have you ever played a game to the point where you max out your score, break a really high limit, etc.? I vaguely remember building everything in Meteos and then maxing out my materials. I might be making that up, though.

    ....Your husband is a hero to Wii tennis players everywhere *salutes*

    I recall one time playing a demo of 3D frogman (pac man except it was a frog) and the numbers capped at 99999. After about 6 more rounds (I was very very very bored and the music is very hypnotic) i noticed the score began to scramble it self. I took it as a compliment and jumped into the nearest ghost. I never played the game since

    Oh! OH! I borrowed Agrias' PSP with her Sega Genesis Collection game. I was very close to maxing out the score in Columns before giving it back. I reached the point where the game wasn't getting any harder, but I wasn't having any problem playing. xP

    I've screwed up the timer on more than just a handful of games.

    Although, there was this one glitch with my Pokemon TCG game back in the days of Gameboy color. Apparently, I played so much that one day, the game decided to screw around with my favorite decks, deleted my name (it was blank), and split into two different records: the ones I made during the game, and ones I made post-game.

    I topped out FFVII's timer if that counts. Back when I had patience for such crap. Back when Cloud was my B/F

    1) I had no idea you were a woman Roto13. Shows how much I don't come here anymore.

    2) That's funny about Wii Tennis. I have done that to a couple of games, myself. None come to mind, though.

    3) There is always a third reason for things.

    On my 'master' FFVII file, the money's so high the save file can't display it properly. According to the memory card screen, I've got <sup>L1</sup>253579 gil. The actual sum is 150,253,579.

    A buddy of mine has a file like that. I call him a loser and I kick him in the nuts ever single time I see him. He can no longer have children, which Jesus Christ himself thanks me for everyday.

    Not saying you are a loser, though. My friend took it too far...but that is a different story all together.

    I was just about to mention columns. If you get your score high enough then the game instantly crashes which is what happened to me. I can't remember my score exactly but it was in the tens of millions.

    Oh! Oh! I learned this from the "King of Kong" documentary. In Pac Man, Donkey Kong and similar old arcade games, they call it the 'kill screen'. Those arcade games don't have a proper 'ending', so the game just arbitrarily kills you or otherwise glitches out when you get to a certain point.
