H.E.R.O. (Atari 2600 Expert/A)

Record 1,000,000 - H.E.R.O - Atari 2600 - Game 1 - Difficulty A / A - 08/31/2018

I don't see the score anywhere. I've enlarged several sections of your photos trying to find the score.

Skipping for now.

@Mark: the game H.E.R.O works with 6 digits 999999, when it reaches 1000000 are these symbols that appear on the screen closing the game, not allowing to go further

@Mark: Hi Mark. !!!!!! = 1,000,000 in most Activision games.

I voted *YES* ( *Accepted* ).

@TRBMetroidTeam: thank you

@TRBMetroidTeam: exactly

Awesome play!

This is one of my all time favourite games, love watching others conquer it!

Voting YES!

@nads: Thanks, my friend, it's also one of my favorite Atari 2600 along with moon patrol :)

@Evandro: By seeing your end label cartridge, your HERO game program by Activision is a Brazilian product manufactured by Polyvox.

@oyamafamily: Exactly, original polyvox game copyrighted by Activision

@nads: Hello Nads! Nice to find you here. Please watch and vote other Evandro's scores. He is a Brazilian friend, and I recommend his records.

I posted another photo as evidence showing the score with 999,245 plus 4 lives remaining, ie almost 1,000,000 = !!!!!! hope you understand

What is the difference between A and B???? Skipping for now...

@atari2600forever: Without effect the keys of difficulty in the game H.E.R.O. Like when I threw the keys were positioned in the A / A post in that category to be compatible only. I hope you understand and vote. Thanks for asking.

@atari2600forever: More details about Moon Patrol settings: Default is [BB] (harder speed) and [Game M]. [AA] = Music ON [A], 3 speeds (easier) [A] [AB] = Music ON [A], 2 speeds (harder) [B] [BA] = Music OFF [B], 3 speeds (easier) [A] [BB] = Music OFF [B], 2 speeds (harder) [B] Game E = Easy (Teddy Bear): 1st loop easy. 2nd loop = 1st loop "M" (need to confirm). Game M = Medium: 1st loop normal. 2nd loop = 1st loop "H" (need to confirm). Game H = Hard: 1st loop hard. 2nd loop = ? (need to check).

@TRBMetroidTeam:

Wooops... please ignore my previous post. That was Moon Patrol settings, and not H.E.R.O..

H.E.R.O. the switches have no effect in the game.

@Evandro: Please, ask the will and ask questions before voting does not. I just did not record the video in full because I took two and a half hours playing and I could not. But I posted all the possible evidences and video after the end showing used scorecard and console. Thanks and I hope you enjoy it :)

@TRBMetroidTeam:

It's mentioned in Activision's River Raid and Laser Blast Game Instructions.

For Laser Blast there is a special patch with the text
