Here you go jumpman, even though this score seems to be nothing (lots of people who say they hit the millions on the PC version)

 

[jumpman17]

I haven't played the GBA version yet, but I was in the millions on the Popcap version. If I get bored this weekend, I may flash this and try and beat your GBA score Jumpman.

Well, I just got something way better.

Also, for anyone who finds the artwork hilarious, like me, check this out.

curse you americans and your slightly different spelling.... thou hast cost me many a point!

 

[Luse]

LOL, I know what you mean there Ben, between the UK spellings, the US spellings, Slang and all, I keep saying " Damn it...That's a word"...

What I find funny though is " Quin" is a word... What they hell is a Quin, other then a name?

 

[Chakal]

Anybody else having a problem with the game?? Sometimes, when I lose, the red curtain (I think it's the right word) close and it doesnt load after.... Even the Select+Start+A+B don't work...

Btw, I'm using EZFA

Hi guy, early a new PopCap Games for GBA : Bejeweled
For more : http://gameboy.gamezone.com/news/01_29_04_02_52PM.htm
Lot of fun

 

[kristianity77]

Ive had the problem too with the red curtain (F2A USB) Its only happened to me once tho in about half a dozen goes of had on it. I think its just one of them things. The only bummer is that if that happens, it doesnt save your high score on the table which is annoying

 

[Luse]

I've been running it on VBA and it has no problems at all...

Jumpman here's a new high score for you (If I was thinking I'd have saved some of the different picture that you get for your collection, then again you've probally doubled this score and haven't posted it yet...)

 

[Chakal]

Nice score Luse, I hope that you havnt played the 1:55 hours straight lol.

For me, I havnt been able to go higher than 120 000 duh

 

[jumpman17]

Holy cow Luse! I haven't finished the game yet, but right now, I'm at 442,540. You might hold that record for a while Luse.

 

[Luse]

Chakal, it was done in one sitting, I'm that addicted

It didn't even seem that long ...

I'm already working on breaking it myself... I'm still wondering if the PC and GBA games are exactly the same. Puck says he's gotten into the millions before, and a friend of mine has said his mother's low scores are in the low 2,000,000's....

 

[Vizenzo]

I think that this game is bored

 

[Chakal]

Lol Luse, I think almost everyone here is kinda addicted to GBA

Anyway, I'd do better if the game would be in french.... but well, playing in english can only help me learn some new words

 

[kristianity77]

I cant remember a game ever on the GBA where scores were so hotly contested!!! My high score so far is only around the 100,000 mark. I gather the green letters give you some kind of bonus points but what is the purpose of the yellow ones which occasionally come up?

 

[DarkWolfNine]

I would guess that using a green letter will double your points for the word, yellow (triple) and blue (dunno? 5 times?)

We can probably find out those by playing the pc version of the game.

I hate how the on the high score list, it lists the best words, but it doesn't list how much those words are worth. *sigh*

Right now I am at 465,000 w/ no reds on the screen (still goin higher.

)

 

[kristianity77]

To reduce the number of red tiles that appear on the screen try not to have any 3 letter words if possible. Ive done my level best to never use 3 letter words and its currently taken my high score from about 150,000 to over 400,000 now and still going.

 

[DarkWolfNine]

I just passed the 1 million mark, and have cleared all my reds so far. *still truckin* I can't screenshoot it, as it is on my GBA, but once I die, I will load the save into VisualBoyAdvance.

Just an interesting side note, but PopCap Games won the Maverick Award from the Game Developer's Conference Awards show for independant and innovative thinking and programming...just thought everyone would like to know that. It's pretty prestigious.
