If my math is correct, it's possible to get over 160,000 without "chipping" at people.  You just need to land enough cyclone kicks before your health runs out.  Easier said than done.

Bimmy, you should totally go for the TG record!  I think you would easily get it if you didn't have to stop playing when you reach your last man.  That life could be used to get the points you need, I'll wager.

You are correct on being able to score over 160,000 points, Tom.  I added it up in my head one day and as long as you use nothing but the spin kick (aside from parts of mission 4 where you can't jump because of the spike ceiling), you can score over 160,000.  The toughest part about getting to a score that high is dealing with all the different Abobos (the disappearing one, the shirtless one, and the Arnie-looking one).  They duck the spin kick a lot, but with enough patience, it's possible to hit them.

I definitely want to go for the TG record.  I can no-death the game, or at the very least, beat it with a couple lives remaining, so I won't have any trouble there.

For those who got to the Shadow Master and had a hard time dealing with him, I will give you a little tip to help make the fight a lot easier.  If you don't face him while you're fighting him (in other words, keep your back to him), he will not do his flying spin punch that takes away like 1/3 of your health.  However, you have to use nothing but the spin kick (or regular kick if you're feeling gutsy) to attack him.  The only time you have to be careful is when he disappears in the first half of the fight since you can't see him to see which way he is facing.  I urge everyone to give this a try the next time you decide to play Double Dragon 2.

Also, the leaderboard is all up to date.

I thought that was the hardest part of the game actually. then learned to be calm and jump slowly
Yeah, the platforming in this game is rough. I ran out of patience and didn't get a chance to play again. I did have a lot of fun with this game though.
