Kane99 Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 Have you ever broken any game records and submitted them to leaderboard site? Do you guys know of any leaderboard sites you can submit your scores to? I don't have any top scores myself, but I think it'd be cool. If you are on any high scores, feel free to share them. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Blackangel Posted January 3, 2022 Share Posted January 3, 2022 I don't know if it's still around or not, but there was a magazine called Tips & Tricks when I was a kid during the NES/SNES/N64 era that did a lot of gamin articles and had a big section with cheat codes and "tips & tricks" for a lot of the games on the systems of the era. They put out a challenge to anyone who could complete Zelda A Link To The Past with a perfect score. I sent in a pic of myself beside my TV with Link on the screen at the perfect score of zero. I don't remember if it was ever published or mentioned in the magazine, because I couldn't afford to buy it very often. But that would be the only time for me.

Sadly I never had high scores to share to them. I think I had a few of the books in my collection too. I'm kinda tempted to buy up some collections of them and other old gaming mags. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's quite a good leader board for uploading gaming scores. Although, I never really uploaded mine, I closely monitored what went on in the site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have come across this magazine called Tips & Tricks and from the little things I remembered about how they worked, it was always a close call for gamers scores in their contest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although, I think their last issue print was in 2007. https://archive.org/details/tipsandtricksmag Boblee 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really appreciate the share, you're awesome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Head_Hunter Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Yes for sure, when I've racked more of the points in my FUT edition, I simply measure up with other gamers that are playing the ultimate team to compare my progress with theirs if their is any improvement made or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't even think to look into the archive site, going to have to check out some of the other magazines they have listed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
