three days from the 8 year anniversary of this video and no part 3 yet.. hope you both are in good health and able to record it still at some point. these have been very helpful so far.
He covered this at the time - they recorded part 3 and uploaded it but were immediately forced to take it down by a government representative. It showed some of the tactics the goverment would use to take down rogue robots in real life - and they didn't want to give the AI a warning
After ten years of intense meditation coaching I learnt how to slow down my perception time to about 25% of normal speed. Playing Robotron is now part of my Zen meditation program.
This game is by far the most intense and reflex driven game of all time. The speed of which it operates is much more satisfying than it is frustrating. I cant imagine the hand/eye skills of the better players. That said I love playing this game....its beautiful.
After watching Greggs and Johns love for the game, I searched hi and low to find it for the PS3. The game is so amazingly frustrating but this guy makes it look easy.
its hard, not frustrating. even tough you can loose the game is challenging and fun to play. frustrating games are not the ones you wan to play more and more
That was absolutely insane! It's obvious he has a lot of experience playing this game. I remember I used to be pretty good at this game back in the early 80s but I don't recall getting that high of a score..... Nice job!
Wow! Thanks Greg and Darren for yet another great guide. I will try these on my mame cab. Nice to finally see someone to make a tutorial tips for this freaking game. It is one of my favorites but damn it is so hard in the higher stages.
Unbelievable. I think my best score on this game is only like 137k. This game is so hard yet this guy makes some of the most difficult parts look like a Sunday stroll. Impressive. Thanks for the video!
Wow, I really suck at this game, but I do have a Smash TV in a 19" dedicated cab. I wonder how much of Robotron strategy(if any) is transferable to Jarvis's later dual joystick game. It also makes me think that my messed of Stargate cabinet may be a good candidate for a jrok board and CP.
It's easier when you play it yourself rather than watching. Kind of like those crazy bullet hell shmups where you're weaving through hundreds of bullets on screen but still don't die coz of micro movements and muscle memory.
lol I can't make it through 5 wave. very hard game and even tough fun to play I can't pause any shit man! I'm playing on the real game using Mister, there is no way you can pause or save your progress that's the real challenge.
In the first part, this so-called expert called Enforcers "Quarks". And now at 2:08 he's calling the shots fired from Enforcers "Star signs" instead of their proper name, Sparks. That's no expert. At 4:22 he calls Quarks "Tank Developers". Come on, give me a break !!!

Are you still going to make a part three?

Gotta spread the love about Robotron. Such a good and difficult game! Thanks for watching :)

Was the Advanced strategy for Robotron 2084 Arcade ever posted? I can't find it

Good call. I've been playing Robotron so much lately, and neglecting my Smash TV. I'll have to give it a go and see if I've improved.
Love to see part 3 :)
Very impressive, I'll be trying some of those tips out later.
we need part threeeee please!
God this game has awesome sound effects!
Totally awesome series and can understand your Robotron addiction. I'm going to have to build a dual stick rig now to be able to play this too :)
Hi Greg, it was nice to meet you last weekend and make a contact in my area. I will definitely keep an eye out for your arcade parties!
When are we gonna see Episode 9 of arcade impossible??? I'm patiently anticipating the next machine you guys are gonna pick up!!!
Episode 10 is out, check out channel. 11 should be out soon.
I don't even care about Robotron and I found this super interesting. I would love to watch more game strategy.
Thanks! We will have more coming.

This dude makes this look simple its anything but
What joystick are you using? I have a 4 to 8 way MagStik Plus. Diagonal shots work well, however the up, down, left, right is unpredictable.
awsome! Another great video!
Nice dude! Keep on it.

I broke 2.7 million on his laptop, on the max difficulty (10), this demo was at what everyone uses (5).
Agree 100%
Is it just me, why am I never getting the info that you guys have a new video up under my subscriptions. Grrr.
Is there going to be a season two?
Season two is coming very soon. I've been going through and editing / restructuring things a bit.
Nice! Thanks for all the hard work, it has been a great series! One of my favorites!
I can get you one if you be in one of my videos. Maybe I'll give you one in my Portland episode. lol
