Sure .... your personal score? Don't tell me a few million points :roll: :P

HMMMmmm...
... around 4.500.000 pts. (4 scorecounter resets...)
I remember back in the years (1984 or similar) the arcade's manager kick me in the ass several times in different days because ha had to close the doors while I was still playing (it was not a 24-hrs-opened-arcade) :D !
Suddenly he replaced the original board with the italian bootleg "ENU" ( an hack of "Venus" ) that could be set ONLY at the maximum difficulty dipswitch...
At that game I made *only* few hundred thousands of pts.
WELL
I just played on my New Monolith multi-emulator arcade cab... [ Mame 32 v0.106 ]
And was the *first* game, because I've not yet tried Gyruss on it :) !
That's it :

[ About Gyruss ]
I grew with classical / liric music, 'cause my fa' and bro' used to listen that genre.
But I also was kinda' "sidetracked" by some contemporary rock/fusion/electronic music, like almost all the young boys of my age used to listen at that time ;D !
Pink Floyd, Toto, Dire Straits, Alan Parsons, ( and Jarre ;) ) ...
So, one day in 1982 I came back home with a not-classical vynil and my brother was surprised (!!!), but after few minutes he immediately got the "essence"...
http://plum.cream.org/sky/sky2.htm
Well, I still own that disc (somewhere...), and I also have it in CD version...
WHY do I tell you that ?
;)
... please listen to the last track of the disc ;)...
Ok, HERE: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XG7dnI0bW90
... and you now know where Gyruss' sountrack came from !
SKY !!!
( btw: I also have 2 CD of guitar works played by the awesome Sky's guitarJohn Williams... that is NOT the mostly famous homonymous musician, the BEST Movie soundtracks' composer ;) )
I think Konami's musicians used to listen that track, and they really did a nice job throwing it into their BEST shooting arcade game !
I have to remind you 2 other things:
1> Gyruss have an OUTSTANDING electronic for the audio only :
a Zoran Z80 CPU, an Intel I8039, 5 General Instruments AY8910 PSG sound chips , and a DAC !!!
2> there's a limited-edition soundtrack album for this game (Konami Game Music Vol.1 - 28XA-85), released by Alfa Records on 25/06/1986...
WELL...
I AM STILL LOOKING FOR IT AND I WANT IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! >:( :o 8) :P :'( :shock: ;D :D

I just downloaded your INP file, and wached it
Impressive gameplay!
btw, would it be something to add the option to save your INP files in this highscore section?
I like to see others play
If you guy's want, i can host the files, create a folder accesible to web with an FTP account that can write there, or something like that

Excellent idea, though, it´s only possible when played on (http://www.opdenkelder.com/muerto/sig/mame.png)

My highest score on Gyruss is just over 4,000,000 (Clocked 4 times as i would say).I did this in 84' something like that.It was at the fair at East End Park in Leeds on Bonfire night (a fun fair goes there every bonfire night) don't no what 'setting' it was on (didn't no there were differant settings until i read the above posts) all i can remember is i were on it around 3 hours...
I haven't got any proof of the score but like i said in my introduction its up to you guys weather you believe me or not 8)
I've got back into playing the game on the Konami Classics game pack on the Playstation 1 and i've just about reached 250.000 then get blown to bits :lol: (my reflexes must be slower now :oops:)

Wow, amazing game and amazing soundtrack! Just getting into it, now at Saturn, just over 100k....
