Once confirmed, McAllister, 41, will be the new world record holder for Asteroidsā high score. The previous high score was set back in 1982, just three years after the gameās release, by Scott Safran with a score of 41,336,440.
McAllister now has to submit the video recording of his marathon gaming session to Twin Galaxies, keepers of arcade and video game high scores, to have it verified and, hopefully, entered into their office score book.
The score was considered by many to be unbreakable.
āItās basically considered a Holy Grailā¦ā McAllister told KGW TV. āIt was a title that a lot of people would want, and I wanted it.ā
History has been MADE! Asteroids Record FALLS!
