This weekend our local retrocade Ground Kontrol will be hosting a portion of the interstate high-score championship titled the Classic Video Game Championships Across America. Competitors are going to try for record-breaking scores and win listings in Twin Galaxies' forthcoming Official Video Game & Pinball Book of World Records.

I for one, will definitely be attending this weekend. In addition to checking out the competition, it will give me a chance to satisfy the vector urge I have been having lately. Ground Kontrol has a ton of vector games: Star Wars, StarCastle, Asteroids, Tempest, etc. I will take some pictures and post them in a new gallery soon.

Some of the games that people will be competing for titles on include Asteroids, Galaga, Missile Command, Space Invaders and 720.
