Battlezone.
Season 2, Week 7 of Score Chasing begins Saturday, October 28, 2023 at 12:00:01 PST (GMT-8) featuring Joust, the arcade version. This article will tell you everything you need to know about how to join our group and play.
PLEASE NOTE: this score chasing event is for adults, age 18 and older, so if you aren’t yet 18, then please return when you are.
First, let’s learn more about Battlezone (Arcade). How is the game played, via Arcade-Museum:
Using wire models on a vector display with a green and red overlay, a battle with opposing tanks, missiles and the occasional saucer is simulated among pyramids and cubes. The 1812 overture plays during high score.
At the top of this post, you’ll see a Battlezone event promo image with a QR Code created by PGM member, Gamer_Nix. This will take you directly to the official PGM iScored Score Chasing Scoreboard at the spot where you will enter your score on Battlezone (Arcade). Where can you play? Here are a few suggestions (alphabetical order) but is not a complete list by any means:
- Antstream Arcade is a cloud based streaming game service that has over 1300 licensed games, including Battlezone arcade version (direct link to game in browser). Note: a monthly or yearly subscription to this service is required, pricing varies. Our PGM group also plays/sends Antstream challenges to other members on various games on this service. If you are a subscriber add us (I’m todd_russell on there, level 100+)
- Arcade – yes, check your local area for barcaes, arcades, mallcades, etc. You might have an Battlezone arcade machine nearby and play might still be a quarter!
- Various Emulated / MAME / CoinOpsX / etc – emulated versions of Battlezone (Arcade) are allowed, but we do not typically link to these sources
Now that you have located where to play Battlezone, simply start playing to establish your personal best score. The goal of score chasing is not a typical leaderboard high score, be the top score tournament. We simply want you to play and beat your personal best. Every time you do, you’ll update your score on the PGM iScored Scoreboard here and linked in the QR code of the image at the top of this article: https://www.iscored.info/?mode=public&user=Playgamesmore&scrollTo=39609
