Patrick Scott Patterson in panic mode pandering like a thumb to find anyway to stay a float while his numbers continue to tank and cling to media life support as he uses more vices

 As Patricks numbers continue to decline in desperation mode he claimed he never cared about high scores and don't now, yet praising people and scores and games he never knew anything about as himself and his sidekick radical feline....

I will also NOTE patrick scott patterson said he never speak of or mention the organization again


REALLY?????



On June 22, 1982, 16-year old Scott Karasek set a world record on Konami/Stern AMIDAR, received and accepted by Twin Galaxies. That record still stands 34 years later. After a two year search Karasek has been found and contacted me this morning. I have forwarded his info to historical advocate Patrick Scott Patterson .

Catherine DeSpira One by one we will find and contact the early Champs, no matter how long it takes, and restore their glory and preserve their history. They are so much more than a score. They are the first heartbeats of competitive gaming.

Phil Mullins and 100% deserve the recognition and place in history

Patrick Scott Patterson This will be great. This is one of the scores that is older than the "oldest standing video game record" somehow. It'll be great to bring one of the lost champs back to the spotlight again.

Catherine DeSpira Much thanks to you, Patrick Scott Patterson. I know you will do this right.

Phil Mullins I'm actually super excited for moments like this! The old players and achievements I never knew are so facsinating. Gaming history is just as enthralling as gaming itself.

Stephen Boyer I don't even think there is a higher score on MAME. I also looked on MARP and one score is huge but just under 3 million.

Patrick Scott Patterson In 2014, here were the longest standing records in that database. I'm not sure if any of these have fallen since I've stopped paying attention. As I've noted before, I have doubts about the Zaxxon score myself... and I believe the Star Fire score was on a Star Fire 2 board... but I have no tangible concerns about the others. January 4, 1982: Star Fire - 9,780 points by Laura Curran
January 16, 1982: Zarzon - 48,720 points by Steve Weirzbecki
March 10, 1982: Radar Scope - 117,300 points by Todd Anderson
March 15, 1982: Zaxxon - 4,680,740 by Vernon Kalanikaus

April 2, 1982: Armor Attack (two player team) 2,257,850 by Paul Hall & Derek Davis
May 1, 1982: UniWar S - 49,990 by Ed Clifford

Steve Juon I'm curious since I haven't played Zaxxon seriously in a long time (and my MAME cab is currently out of commission) is a score of 4 million impossible? Is there a kill screen, or does the game move so fast that it becomes unplayable? Some technical reason?

1 hr

Patrick Scott Patterson No technical reason... just noting how Zaxxon was one of the hottest games in the world at one point, and how much higher they are than Don Hayes' score. Considering he has the record on the much harder Super Zaxxon, I wouldn't be shocked to learn that the top few Zaxxon scores weren't for real. I am slower to doubt vintage scores than some are, but that'd be one. Worth note: I doubted the Pengo record once, too... and it got beat.

Steve Juon I know this is totally unrelated Scott, but you know what's depressing to me? I once legitimately had a "high score" on GameBoy Tetris greater than any that had been submitted to Nintendo Power when I was a kid, and I went to great lengths to take a ph...See More

Stephen Boyer Patrick Scott Patterson I believe I verified the Pengo score. Even the DOT score was totally crushed a few years ago. And the regular Tron scores of 4M were once thought to be fake or impossible to get but not it's been tripled.

Patrick Scott Patterson I've heard that Nintendo Power would hold back scores sometimes.... a source no lesser than the mighty Woz had it happen to him. That said, a lot of obviously cheated scores went to Nintendo Power back then, too... so yugh.

Steve Juon If it happened to Woz too I don't feel so bad - besides the fact he's a super nice guy (got his autograph at the first gaming con I ever went to).

Patrick Scott Patterson Stephen Boyer - Oh, big time... that's something people there don't seem to know, because there's not a lot of research done... but there have been dozens of 1980s scores deemed "impossible" or "fake" that have been beaten in recent years. Tons of discussions there from 2001 on, even including scores like Paul Dean's Spy Hunter score, and a huge mess from it all. I'd always thought the vintage Pengo score had to have been done on the alternate ROMs that allow the game to be more pattern based... and then someone beat it on the proper ROMs. I have to concede, then, that the score I once doubted is/was legit.... meaning I could be wrong about Zaxxon... and that anyone else could be wrong about any other score they doubt right now.

So now they think they are gonna magically locate these champs, put them on a pedestal for financial and publicity gain, in order to resurrect a dead video game team and name.

Patrick and Cat think they are on cloud 9 when in reality they are the two worst people in gaming today !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
