Went ahead and knocked this out tonight.

 

Thought I was doing really well, but I ended up losing most of my lives on one of the last stages.

Attached a second picture to show I didn't continue (you get two continues in the game). :)

IIRC, if you continue, it wipes out your score and you start over with zeroes, right? So continues wouldn't buy you anything on a HSC competition. I never really focused on my score when I played this game. Curious to see how I do!

 

I'm not sure how it works and I wasn't about to take a chance. :lolblue:

I came SOOO close to beating the game, dying on the elevator that takes you up to the boss's office. Actually, after I took this pic, I hit 'continue' and went up there and rocked his world. This has to be my all-time best performance on this game.

 

I have a few tips, which I'm going to post up in the OP.

Three runs so far:Before anyone else posted, I ran this game on Wii, lost to Mr X, (took picture that I was too lazy to upload) continued and whooped his ass without losing any more lives. I thought it was a bit too early to be posting a score of 636400 so I held off. That, and I really wanted to kill him before posting.

After finally getting a cartridge to play on an actual Genesis , I didn't even reach the end of stage 7.

That pissed me off to the point of immediately trying again: Beat Mr X and had a life to spare. 730550.

 

And now, some tips:

Hidden 1up near/at that alien head thingy.

I've found myself staying the hell away from weapons whenever possible. Beating up foes aint easy when I keep picking stuff up. (Ever have two weapons right next to each other in the middle of a heated brawl? Good grief!) And when I actually have a weapon, it takes longer to swing it than it does to just hit someone bare-handed! I just chuck 'em ASAP.

You know what weapon I do like? Enemy bodies. I spend a lot of time being surrounded, but by simply grabbing someone and chucking him behind me things aint so bad. There are a few enemies that I'm afraid to throw though, like biker dudes, color Signal enemies in the late game, and anything that resembles a boss.

 

I don't know how much y'all know about the moves, so here's some moves that Axel can use other than the Grand Uppercut:

  • Backhand the shit outta people by pressing B+C. (Same command as throwing a weapon.) Basic combo can be interrupted with this, very useful when surrounded and don't feel like using that life-draining special. I tend to jump instead of backhand, unfortunately.
  • The basic combo can have an extra kick at the end by...I'm not sure but it might be holding some direction and mashing B more than usual.
  • The jump kick can be turned into some weird pose attack by holding DOWN before hitting B while airborne. This has light stun instead of knockdown, so can be used as a combo starter. Enemies may hit you after using this though, so use with caution.
  • Jump backward by pressing left and jump at precisely the right time for Axel to jump, yet move backward instead of turning around. (What a damn shame I can't explain this any better.) Jump kicks with this could be useful if you're trying to retreat.
  • Hold B for about two seconds (or more), and release. (You can keep moving while holding B.) Upon release, Axel swiftly kicks twice for some good damage.

Other characters? All I know is that Blaze can swing twice with a knife, Skate is really fast and Haggar is in a different game.
