Hi Insiders!
 
We've done a complete refresh of the  MacInsiders Arcade and reset all highscores. As part of our Feedback Survey conducted last month, a common complaint were the highscores that were near impossible to beat from years ago. Well, it's time to set new records and get in on the fun!
 
Check out the games in the  MacInsiders Arcade and try to set a new highscore. Be sure to leave a comment when you get a highscore! We'll be featuring new highscores on the MacInsiders Homepage.
 Click here to start playing
Enjoy! And have fun.

		Ya, some games have a button to submit your score and let you keep playing until you're ready to submit the highest score you've achieved while playing so far. While other games don't let you restart the game quickly and direct you to the highscores page right away. 
Unfortunately I can't control that, as it's however the game was coded to deal with high scores :(
 
@Ponyo yes.. definitely hate to see you lose trophies! But its fun to have to beat your high score and challenge another user
