Microsoft XP Standard Pinball HIGH score.

[Grif392]

I'd call 250,000,000 points a high score.

(No, I didn't cheat. And no, it's not edited.)

This took a WHILE. Like, 2+ hours a while. 250 million points is a LOT of points.

[Everlast]

Wow, thats pretty good. I just checked the high scores on the computer I'm using and the highest score is........0 Lol I haven't played it on this one yet. I guess I should go turn on my other computer then and find out what my high score was....

[Neko244]

Wow, nice! My best is only 7,000,500. :shocked:

[Zwaken]

I don't play this game!

"Microsoft XP Standard Pinball"

You know that this game was also included in past versions of windows don't you? It was introduced in Windows NT... I think ME also had it... and while I don't think 2000 is supposed to have it... Mine does... As for a High score... I haven't played the game since Windows NT....

[Zwaken]

Not saying that you did edit that picture, but it would be easy to edit the score. And people with macs can't play it...

[Xap]

I've got around 30,000,000.
I remember when I was addicted to that game for about 3 days.:rolleyes:

[Grif392]

I had a lot of time on my hands, and I was trying to get my keystroke counter thing up. I was a bit bored, too.

[Everlast]

Some people don't even know how to play it, in the sense of knowing that you have to hit those yellow things to get missions and then once you complete the mission you get a lot of points and the more lights light up in the middle circle...so I can tell from the picture that Grif392 didn't edit it....if you did good editing job!

[???revived]

I don't remember my high scores on that, but I usually have horrible luck and the ball goes right in between the paddles, so that I can't bounce it back up...

[Neko244]

I just played it again and got 8,522,250. :D

[Zwaken]

Woah, Neko...YOUR BACK!!! YAY!!! Why haven't you posted in a while?

[Zantetzuken]

ive gotten around 80 mil but thats crazy nice high score

[Grif392]

Aww. I forgot to mention, last night I quit at 277,000,000 or so.

[Zantetzuken]

:shocked: :eek: how do you get these scores

[Xap]

Some people don't even know how to play it, in the sense of knowing that you have to hit those yellow things to get missions and then once you complete the mission you get a lot of points and the more lights light up in the middle circle
I never have time to look at the side thing that tells you what your mission is, becuase when I do, the ball somehow flies into the exit.:anirolleyes:
I still aim for the glowing toggles though, and try to get the lights to light up.

[Grif392]

Alright, since no one's found me out, wanna know how I did it?

SPOILER/AWESOME HACKS:
Alright. Start a new game of Pinball. On your keyboard, type "Hidden *SPACE* Test". MAKE SURE THE SPACE IS THERE! Then press Enter, and then click your mouse. Voila, a magical mouse-controlled ball.
EDN SPOILER.

In case anyone cares, that near-perfect color copy is #E5E5E5.

Ooh, you're sneaky! Where did you find that out?:shocked:

Woah, Neko...YOUR BACK!!! YAY!!! Why haven't you posted in a while?
He's been back for a while, Zwaken.;)

[Grif392]

Ooh, you're sneaky! Where did you find that out?:shocked:

I was "stumbling" (stumbleupon.com) and I found a site with that tutorial.


Even with cheating, it still took a LONG time.

My name is Michael. I am 7 years old. I like playing Pinball (No Wondern!!!!!!)
It all started when my dad & me started pllaying Pinball I eventually got it
(very gradual) 1.000000, 2000000 eventually I got 11.380750. (great score)

That is still the record score in our family.

Maybe you could write to me to tell me your best Pinball score

[VoLAN]

[John Brooks]

Not lying.

[TurtleTuck]

wow and i thought 6mil was good!:eek:

[Slade]

The best I've ever made was around 30 million points and that was tough enough...

[Slade]

Take a look at my high score board!!!

http://i17.tinypic.com/48zpgko.jpg

I pressed 'h' after doing the cheat thing and it automatically gave me 1,000,000,000 points, but it immediately brought me to the board.

Won't you look at this! I had some...ahem...spare time:

http://i16.tinypic.com/48xr85w.jpg

Heh, heh...beat that!

[blue_moon]

Yes, and I did that too. The first 1 is always the top most. For me its 356,789; 1,000,000,000; 1,000,000,000; 1,000,000,000; 1,000,000,000.

[Loofiloo]

Heh, I never knew about the cheat for that game... I might have to go try it out. I'll also post a REAL high score. =P

Edit: Here it is!

Pssht.

I can get a few mil without the cheat.

It's a fun cheat, no?

[dr Evil]

Its not cheating...
its using all the available resources to the best of your ability:D

[Everlast]

Pssht.

Actually 1,000,000,000 is a billion not a million. ;)

And in spanish mil = thousand :)

[Kaz21]

Its easy to cheat in this game, without editing that is just start a game and type "hidden test" without the " things and you can drag the ball with your mouse!

Edit: Just realised someone has already said the secret...

[wildgoosespeeder]

(I see some people having a bad taste of PC games) - not really!
What Microsoft provides in a standard Windows XP package is not all that great. :( Oh well! Anyways, I play that game when I have a serious case of boredom. :D
