32300 ENHANCED version game 3. I switched to a Slik Stik and ripped out this score
 

Well. It’s a start. Original Berzerk. 4,490. Tough game.  
 

Thanks for this post! I had no idea this game existed.

Towers II: Enhanced Stargazer Edition is here for the Atari Jaguar! The RPG was released for the Jaguar in late 1996 and rereleased in 2023 with double the ROM size and massive quality of life upgrades.

13900 original version game 3
 

My final entry: 111,810. It turns out this game rolls over at 1 million. I burned off my remaining lives after surpassing the TG and Lvl Up Score records held by ZilchSr.
It helps immensely to shoot the enemies diagonally whenever possible since they cannot shoot diagonally. So you can dodge their fire - even up close - while picking them off.

I didn't record this run because I had played like garbage earlier this evening, but that's fine. I stopped at 99,710 because I was getting tired and I'm pretty sure the score rolls over at 100,000. Maybe I'll record another day & go for a rollover. Maybe not lol. Oh, I played on Stella 6.7 for Mac OS and it's the 2600 Berzerk, Game 3.
 

I just played a quick game.  Lousy score, but it's a start...4260

12,930 - ENHANCED edition game 3.  I'm playing on my 2600jr with CX-40
 

Slightly better 
14,390. Same setup. 

UPDATE: I misplaced my wireless controller but I found it after a long and extensive search. I updated my VCS along with both controllers. I accepted three friend requests, so thank you! (That said, it does take a bit of drilling down to accept said requests.)
I didn't have time to purchase a game, so I hope to do so tomorrow and do so without issues.

Playing the original on the heavy 6. 13,630.

3,850. Berzerk Enhanced, Game 3 on the 2600+ with a CX-40+.
A terrible score. 🤣

The only other thing I can think of is to update the controller firmware (you have to do it manually via the settings menu). 

@Marco1019 - The update is pretty big but should work fine. Give it up to 30 minutes depending on your internet speed.

Hello! It's been way too long since I played anything on my Atari VCS. I'd like to get back to it and also stream my gameplay on occasion. I know there were a few issues during the second half of 2023, especially the 'zip code' issue which I believe has been resolved. Should I be on the lookout for any other matters? Have there been any problems with updates? Thank you in advance.
