Ivey vs. Farha in Pacman

DaveFu · #1 07-25-2006, 03:22 PM

I heard that Farha used to hustle at Pac Man back in the day. Have him and Phil ever faced off in that arena?

Have you seen the cardplayer-video in which Ivey is at greensteins house? Barry has a pacman-machine and Ivey sets whopping 29000 or someting. Scott Huff then tried to match Ivey.

Sorry, don't know the Farha vs. Ivey match.

Is that sarcasm? Isn't that a really, really easy score to beat?

I have no clue, they made it look like something great in that video. One moment, I will post link in a minute.

Edit: it is a much bigger score. Sorry.

There's a pattern to every pacman board (and each ghost has its own characteristics).

once you take the time to learn it, it's very, very easy.

Yes but like Tetris things speed up.

Ivey also quit before the game ended.

Look again. 249,000 was the score Ivey had and gave up with multiple lives still left.

The high score Ivey set on Greenstein's machine is 693,000.

Pac Man World Record

Ivey and company have a long way to go. on 7/3/99, Billy Mitchell achieved the first perfect Pac-Man game with a score of 3,333,360 on one quarter.

To get a perfect game on Pac-Man, the player has to eat every dot, every energizer, every blue man and every fruit up to and including board 256 -- where the game ends with a split screen. This must be accomplished on the first man, too.
