I see brickchamp is the winner still but i know i will beat his score this month. this is my first day posting... but now that i know there is something to shoot for.

one question for everyone though... can anyone get the gun to shoot all the way to the Left on v4.0??? it seems like a fault in the game to me but it would be nice to know that particular detail!

thanks all.

good luck to brickchamp and all.

I used to HATE the flip capsule 'cause it makes your paddle go the opposite way....until I tried this.

When I get a flip capsule, I pause the game and turn my black berry upside down and roll the paddle with my left hand. Sure your paddle is at the top BUT it rolls the normal way...much easier!!!

I have a BB7250 V4.0 High Score 9045

After you get past level 17 it gets MUCH easier. There are only a few bricks per level (so fewer points per level). But the first time I got past 17 I made it to 22 on only one life. My high score (4.0 ver) is 10825 as of now, but I play the darn thing whenever I'm just sitting around in a meeting or something.

Good luck and God Speed

I tried the hack and it didn't work. Do I need anything else like code?

I had exited the game and came back in.. and it was on pause. Then pressed the codes using the keypad and the rotary dial on the left. Do you need shift or is this just a waste of my time?

i tired the unlimted lives code too, and no success.....btw 15315 v4

[wwiiace]

yeah, i think that dude is either an idiot / jerk, or simply on a different version than us. i'll try to think the better of him but i was kinda pumped about a code... just to relive my original NES days. up down up down left .. well you know it. ah well. my high score is safe for a bit from cheating brickbreaker players.

15555 here. got lucky one time while on the train.

I've found a cheat... or actually a bug. On the first level, at the exact instant your ball (or laser or gun) comes into contact with the last brick, press in the jog dial. The box will pop up with "Level 2/34" and also the menu will pop up. Hit "Ok" on the level dialog, then hit "New Game" on the menu.

It will then start a new game on level two. When you finish level two it will jump ahead to level 4, and then to level 6, etc. Your score won't be very high, but you'll get furthur along in the game quicker.

It takes a little practice, but you'll get it.

I've only been able to get the gun to shoot all the way to the Left if your paddle is wrapping. You can then move slightly off the screen and line up the gun.

28,275 - getting closer to 30k...

The left paddle thing with the wrap is clever but not the answer I was hoping for. I wish there was a button to slide it over. Again, ah well.

As for your score, that's really good. You are in 2nd place as my high is currently 28,210. I'll have to start taking more breaks around here.

I've scored 30645, good to see that I still have a reason to play.

thanks!!! i found this about a month ago and for the life of me could not repeat it. i thought it might have been a 1 time thing and it was only me that it happened to. i had a different cheat. when it happened it was on level 12 and I was able to skip level 13 and went right into 14 without starting a new game. i will have to play around with this some more.

[wwiiace]

yeah.. i have been playing around with this a lot as well, but then got bored. it seems as though if you do manage to do it, you can't stop playing, die, or pause the game at all because it will figure out whatever its doing incorrectly.

i still need to play with it as well. it'd be nice to skip that "U" board everytime (i think its level 16). I lose a ton of guys on that level usually.

my high score hasn't been reached in a while playing this darn cheat though. Doh.

You can skip a level in Brick Breaker.....You must have either a Gun or a Laser, when you get to the last break of the brick you can press your scroll button in as if you were going to pause the game at exactly the same time the last brick is broken with the gun or laser. The game will not pause but will skip a level.

Try it, it works!
