Twin Galaxies accepting record score submissions, now at a cost
April 24, 2013 by Leave a Comment
Legendary arcade scoring organization Twin Galaxies had to take a break from tracking scores for about six months as the company went through a transition last year, but as of last week it’s back in business and ready for score submissions.
There is one catch, however. The company charge to report your scores: $ 25 for one submission, $ 60 for three submissions, or $ 75 for five submissions. Each score submission requires video proof – you may include more than one score in the video – but each video can only cover one game. If you want to submit both Donkey Kong and Rampage scores, for example, you’ll need to pay twice.
The new ownership says the old database was “damaged yet not completely irretrievable,” and the fees will go towards smoothing out the verification process and evolving the website “beyond its status as the premier competitive scoring service, and into an interactive gaming platform.”
So, think you can do better than Hank Chien?

Previous Game of the Year winners include The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim (2011), Mass Effect 2 (2010), Uncharted 2: Among Thieves (2009), and Little Big Planet (2008).
