Cheating on the Asteroids Deluxe Leaderboards

So if you Go into the leaderboard menu for Asteroids Deluxe and view the replay for the number one player what do you see? someone playin a crap game of Asteroids and then the replay pauses. Thinking this was odd i rewatched the replay and skipped forward a few times to see if i missed anything and this eventually revealed whoever was playing was getting a crap ton of points and an extra life one after another just by shooting asteroids from the same spot.
 
I was always skeptical of the integration of the Console and Windows versions intermingling and this is probably a good case as to why.
 
Anyway, load up gameroom, check the Asteroids Deluxe leaderboard, view the replay of the top player (he's the only one with a triple digit score) and see for yourself. Don't forget to skip forward or the replay will pause before it gets to the exploit/cheat/whatever.
