Hi RaspBear! A few minutes after reading your post, out of curiosity I downloaded and played this game in the Konami version. Indeed, the same old Bugs exist here,as in the Stern version: the element of the bricks subtracting stage does not exist, the lone mother ship attack does not happen, and you get infinity lives at a certain point. But..one time I did not get infinity lives for some reason, and that was the attempt that beat the TG record..lol (I submitted that game so if you're interested,you can check it out at the TG site) I personally hate the Konami version as it's very frustrating- your ship is UNDER the bricks so it's ironic that you're trying to defend them while at the same time they get in the way of you trying to shoot their kidnappers. I think that the Stern version ( in which the ship is ABOVE the bricks) is the superior version of the two and more of a pure shooter. Cheers!
