When you know you're out of your league! (Cell phone Parsec)

[- Ω -]

So I decided to download that awesome TI-99/4A game called Parsec from the Google Play Store...

... then I decided to play it...

... then I checked other people's scores...

... now I hang my head in shame.

That's how it is with any on-line game (or game with an on-line scoreboard).  Some people are experts or spend a lot of time playing.  Have fun with it, but don't get discouraged by the nerds that play 24/7.

Absolute top shelf advice for any form of online gaming

Even if I was a perfect player, I could never get close to those scores, my hands give out after a few minutes of playing.

The touch controls on this game are simply horrible! These (arcade) games need to be played with a joypad, but if I had to play with a joypad I prefer to use a big screen. Just removed after 5 minutes...

I completely understand.  I left it in, for now at least.  You know I don't know if it would work with an OTG cable, but yeah, bigger screen is better... unless you are stuck somewhere far from home.

Maybe, bluetooth is supported, no wire, however it could add some lags. In any case, we can play the original game... 😉

Yep, nothing is better than the original viewed in the standard 4:3 format... with an F18A.
