Ulisses Patriota had promised to come back to Dig Dug for the Atari 2600, and so this December he went back underground for a high score run. Armed with an air pump, he dug dirt, ate vegetables, dropped boulders, and pumped up Pookas and Fygars. After nearly 2.5 hours, Ulisses resurfaced with 801,330 points for an 8th place finish on the TG leaderboard. | Twin Galaxies
