    Kill screen discovered in Black Ops Zombies

    In Ascension mode, if you somehow survive four instant-kill rounds at 199 to 202, the game resets on round 203 due to a memory overflow, as demonstrated by MatoMaster21 here:



    Whether this has to do with the round counter, something internal, or perhaps just how fucking long he was at it to set this world record (65 hours and 17 minutes!) is a matter of healthy debate, but this is probably one of the biggest achievements in gaming since the original kill screen discovery.

    Edit: Apparently it's just a system memory overflow thing that happens when you're in the game for long enough. Still, reaching round 203 with only one fall on 186?

    Not sure if this is one the biggest achievements in gaming since DK kill-screen...this kill-screen has been known about on other maps, just that nobody knew exactly where it would be on Ascension afaik or couldn't survive for as long. The rounds after 163 get considerably easier too because the zombie health overflows and resets to the start value.

    Donkey Kong kill-screen using an arcade cabinet takes a shit-ton of precision and practice to get every move down correctly...comparing it to Black Ops zombies is a stretch imo because the strats for reaching high rounds could be optimized or made easier in the future, whereas it's still hard as balls to reach the kill-screen in DK today and the game is over 20 years old

          This has been around for ages.

          It happens on every map at any round past round 200.
