Popeye record of 26 years topped... twice !

One of the longest standing, and most difficult to match, cag records has fallen.  On June 11, 2010 at the Northwest Pinball and Gameroom Show, Perry Rodgers made 1,238,110 points on Popeye.  This edged out the old score of 1,232,250 made by Steve Harris in 1983.  Congrats to Perry for the long-time dedication that led to him breaking this score on the arcade platform.

Amazingly enough, another Popeye player recently topped not only a million, but also both of the above scores, using MAME.  Forums member Ryan Sandnes (TheShado) made 1,469,440 points on June 22, 2010, and thus threw down the gauntlet to all current Popeye masters that he was a major contender, and expert.  Congratulations, Ryan.

- Mark A., June 2010
