When I saw the title of the episode, I knew it was going to be 'Snow Brothers'.
Best line: "Snow Brothers is racist!"
As shown early, the key to high scores are getting to the top, get a monster in a snowball and push it into all the others for chain reaction points. The food for points are okay but the power-ups for stronger snow and fast speed are big keys.
Another great episode as always

Sad that Killer Instinct got vetoed but then we got Safari...a Gremlin classic. This is a vertical version of Head-On, another classic game where you have to steer your car and get the dots and avoid the other car but with Safari, you have rocks and animals thrown in. As seen, you need to run over the animals from the bottom or back. If you hit them by their mouths, there's a 50/50 chance of losing a life depending on whether or not their mouth was open.
Looks like Aaron's opening up a sizable lead in this one. Can he hold onto it?

just found this thread, I grew up in Tucson, but moved out about 5 years ago to find some cheaper housing. I recognize James in the videos, he used to work the video game counter at Bookman's, and I was convinced he kept everything good that got traded in for himself, never to have a chance on the store shelves for anyone else, lol. Really like the series, If I was back home, would've loved to meet up with you guys

ProTip: All the Bookman's employees keep the good shit for themselves. It's the one thing that would keep us from snapping and ripping the arms off of customers.
I'm glad you enjoy the show, sir.

Anteater...can't get much more classic than that
As mentioned in the video, the key is to keep the anteater's tongue moving as much as possible. You can eat the worms but only from behind, otherwise they kill you. Also the spider comes out after the sun sets and like the classic Qix, acts like a fuse along your tongue and when it reaches the end, you're done.
If you've never played it before, it can be a somewhat tough game but as most classics, once the basics are learned, it's an easy play. Can't wait for the next game.

So, how many points would Aaron have received at 3:15 had he made the diagonal klax? There was still 7k difference in his final score.

He would have gotten 5K instantly, and a bunch more for the round clearance bonus as that would have ended the round immediately (it gives you points for all the empty space in the grid). It would have sealed the deal for him.
