Wow lmao! I forgot all about this game, It made me go back and do a search, this game hit IW hard in May of 2002 as well as the Dec 2002 link above:

I had no Idea that it had become a yearly event lol, I remember wasting many many hours at college playing this, when I should have been getting on with my assignments, oh happy days.

Well I'm off to see if I still have the touch [img]smile.gif[/img] .

Heh first go in 5 years, score.......313, I guess if you dont use it you lose it :(

Third attempt got me as far as 1519 meters, but I have played this so much it gets tedious even now. The stupid thing about this game is that it is far easier played with a slow internet connection, as the chopper won't fly nearly as fast.

I once had a competition with my roommates as well, and recall having a score of about 4000 (or close anyway) at one point. And yeah, we had ADSL by then!

Random obstacles are a pain in the ass, true that [img]smile.gif[/img] I caught myself swearing at the screen just a moment ago when the same happened to me :D

Argh. I'm irritated, bored, and I just can't stop playing. ;)

They really need to amend the random generator. ^^; This game is not just about skill, but luck too. [img]tongue.gif[/img] A lot of luck.

Reflexes? What are those?

I laughed my headoff when I saw this, because I rememebr playing this in my first years of secondary school with my friend Emma. She ruled at it, and eventually got bored and crashed on purpose.
