I Beat The Chessmaster !!!
11 Jan '09 07:04Well Sort Of hehe
I was messing around with old video games and saw my Chessmaster for Playstation 1.
Being a sentimental old fool, I had to see if my old menace could still give me the beating it used to so frequently years ago.
Who but a chess geek would go to the trouble of buying a video game that just plays chess? 🙂
I took the white pieces and actually used a real board and pieces.
This is the highest level of this particular version, and I had it set on computer matches human time (a slight handicap for sure).
I took around 15 minutes for the entire game.
Even so, it is one pretty amazing game (full of mistakes).
I began kicking myself after 33.Qh5 ??. I felt as though 33.Rxg6+ wasn't correct for some reason. I think 33.Nh4 worked.
51.cxd3 was better too.
This was a really fun and super comlicated game.
The funny thing is it took 15 minutes to play and could take weeks to analyze properly. I really wouldn't want to annotate this one.
