I managed it too eventually. However nothing appears on the online leaderboards. Why's that? Is it necessary to beat the whole game with a massive score to get on the leaderboard or something?
I like the game myself. I've got into these kinds of shooters recently, so rather than feeling dated, they're all pretty new to me. There are better ones around on other platforms, but this is the only one of its type so far on XBLA.

On the official (Xbox.com) forums, it seems that to get on the leaderboard(s) you have to complete the game on all default settings and no Continues, also have a score within the current top 100 scores (as it's not showing any lower than that) and even after that some people say their scores aren't showing up.

Thanks for finding out. I've got no chance then! The game gets well hard in the later levels, and I only managed to get through them using continues. It's a bit mean of them to have online leaderboards but only for the top 100 people in the world.

yeh i'm playing it one credit at a time so no continues
the only way to get better imo (although i still haven't lasted very long into level 3)
90% of people on the leaderboards are all japanese
makes sense i suppose as it was never released anywhere else before this
making only 100 people on the leaderboards is also pretty lame
also judging by mygamercard.net only 1666 people have bought it which is a whopping shame as its pretty good
Seven years after the introduction of its first console, Microsoft is waging a new war with Xbox 360 – against itself. Phil Spencer, the general manager of Microsoft Game Studios Europe, believes the war can still be won.
As Jamesac pointed out in the Söldner-X thread, it seems there are in fact some Cave shooters coming to the 360, namely Ketsui and DoDonPachi DaiOuJou Black Label. These look like being retail games rather than XBLA though.
Bullets anyone?

Bollocks! ... I paid £120 for mine (about a year ago).
