    will try tonight, if you don't make it out and complete the mission on the same life it's really not worth the hassle (score wise), readin gup on a walkthrough though seems there are quite a few hostages to free in there;

      I've got a best of 739,xxx for mission 1, can anyone beat that ? think it's only a couple of thousand off the max for the level ?

        on level 3 when the second blockade appears (fires torpedoes)

        go thru the pipe that appears near the top of the screen

        this will take you to an easier route where you can use the ostri-slug

        its still pretty hard but not as hard as the route you are taking

        so dont destroy the second blockade go thru the pipe that appears

        on the first blockade there is a pipe but that will eventually take you via the same route you are using right now

          Managed 1,222,600 just now.

          Didnt lose a life until the gravestones boss on chapter 2 also, and I had saved all the hostages upto that point so I lost out on major points by dying. I am usually ok on that boss too - I was amazed when I did the ghost things without dying only to mess up the next boss.

          Oh well, I need to sort out ch3 too I am terrible on it at the moment.

            1,296,080 for me, just 21,000 behind Sigho in 6th place. Same as RJ had 16 hostages with me but died on level 2 boss, ggrrrrr.

            Buster your right about the "easier route" on mission 3, but there's still loads and loads of soldiers etc

              There are two hostages you may not know about david on stage 2 - I found them by accident.

              Open the door to the ice cave and wait about for a bit (maybe shooting the remains of the zombies on the right) and two hostages run out of the cave.

                Are we having this as a proper scores thread? Huxley? I know there's only a few of us playing it, but as neither Rob or Buster have Live, that seems more reason to.

                  Gah. I can now get into and out of the ice cave without losing a life and with all hostages saved, but because I've spent more time trying to do that than I have with level two's boss, I come a complete cropper as soon as it appears. Well, not as soon as it appears, but once the aliens start firing the fast, spaced laser balls (rather than the three at a time or the slower spaced ones). And I've just managed to get past them, but then got killed by a falling monolith thing about a second before the entire boss was about to go kerblooey.

                  So my current best is 1,181,460. Once I've got the boss down, though, I should (hopefully) be able to batter that.

                  <edit> Heh. 1,392,670 - level three. Fifth place on Live. Again, should have been much higher than that, but I lost two lives at the boss again, wiping out every bloody hostage.

                    The hostage scoring system is a bit harsh, its so annoying when you die at the end of a level like that.

                    I finally worked out the correct path through level 3 but I cant do it on less than about 5 continues yet!

                        Yes please....

                        I also don't have Live, so I'll second that idea

                              Heh, true to me word, 1,409,xxx at 1.30 this morning, took a few goes, 5th on Live, went via the Ice Cave route, lost two lives getting to the Elephant (where you get blocked in by Ice and the Yeti's come up from behind) have found though that going out of the Ice Cave is easier on foot, take it slow, shoot everything and you can't go wrong

                              Will start new thread later.
