Tempest 4000 "Pure Mode" Gameplay Session (Xbox One, PS4, PC) - 6 Million Points - [HD]

This is a gameplay session featuring the Xbox One version of Tempest 4000. This is the Pure Mode of the game, starting from the first web. I make it pretty far into the game and get a Game Over after about 100 minutes.

From Wikipedia:

"Tempest X3, the Sony PlayStation version, was released in 1996, with updated graphics and sound. However, the following gameplay differences from the original version were identified by Jeff Minter in a Usenet post:

The "AI Droid" only follows the player, instead of acting autonomously. A new, "Mega Droid" powerup rectifies this somewhat, but it takes a very long time within a level to acquire it.
Pulsars now move slowly around the top of the Web if they reach it (rather than electrifying the whole top edge the moment they arrive).

The Particle Laser is no more effective than the normal laser against Spikes (in the original, it destroys them very quickly).
Some of the harder, "sticking point" webs have been removed from the game entirely.

Entering the name "YIFF!" or "H_V_S" on the top highscore position activates a secret mode, allowing the user to choose to play the original Tempest 2000 game. Any high scores made in this mode are not saved, the music (wave-captured from the original modules) is muffled and the effectiveness of the Particle Laser against spikes is not restored.

The PlayStation version of Tempest X3 supports the PlayStation Mouse, Nyco Trackball and Namco's rotary neGcon analog controller."
