I can handle it when a bunch of shapes come out because i just start fighting a path in front of me, hit a circle and run, then they all go into the circle and give me a chance to get away but sometimes they will send a TON of those snakes and those SUCK!! You have to hit them in the "face" or else your screwed and i always run into their tails because i can never kill them fast enough. I should have my 1 mill within the next week though

Honestly, if it wasn't for the snakes... i'd be past 1M by now. They are the ever constant source of anxiety when I get into the 500K range. Just tooo damn much coming and going for me to worry about hitting a snake tail...

I HATE the snakes. I survived to 493k before running into a snake. I saw red.

This might help you out. Here's a video (45mb) of Striker getting over 2 million points:

TOTAL MAYHEM!

[melongstrike]

I couldn't watch any more out of disgust for myself... I can't even get pass 162k. It looked as if it didn't start getting hard for him till about 250k maybe I downloaded the EXTRA HARD Version of the game, and our playing styles look similar except for he is good and I am not.

OK I am mad enough to try again.... I won't post anymore on the scene till I surpass my highest score.

WISH ME LUCK!!!!

[melongstrike]

ok I can repost scored 200+ wheew!

[gsxr]

Am I only one or if you let the demo of geometry just loop the sounds visuals except for the green translucent bars not the coolest...

I let the demo intro just run on my 360, I love the intro.

Finally broke 600K tonight. Very addictive game

[Master X]

After watching the video i got inspiration to play harder, i was playing all night and eventually got up to 800,000 and then died. I was so close to getting my 1 mill and now im stick at work being dead tired and falling asleep while talking to customers.

I can never get passed the 250K mark, my HS is 247K I always die when the sperm comes out, but I have noticed that there is usually black holes at the corners right before they come out, so activate the black holes quickly.

[deakphreak]

I FINALLY GOT PAST 1 MILL! WOOO HOOOO!!!!!!!!! I had my hopes up so i was gonna try for the 9 bombs next and i got up to 8 bombs and was like YES thats another one down so i stopped trying and died then realized it was 9 bombs i was posted to get

[Stunna7516]

I got to 499,850 the other day... I was so pissed I didnt break 500k. But anyways, Im sure I will eventually, I usually just restart if I die before like 175k or so, even then sometimes its a waste of time.
