By Twin Galaxies Editorial Staff ·
It's “the more the merrier” when you're going for a team high score.
Whether it's rain or shine, you might find yourself spending a little more time outside, which is great! Remember to “touch the grass,” right? But let's not forget that a little R&R can always involve video games. And if you're particularly dedicated, you might even apply a little elbow grease to get a July record! For this week's edition of the Scoreboard Spotlight, we've pulled together five incredible achievements spanning the bright lights of Las Vegas, quirky cooking recipes, competitive softball, hard-nosed wrestling, and undercover work, so let's get started!

What happens in Vegas, stays on the TG leaderboard when it comes to crazymoose3k clinching a new record on Mickey's Speedway USA for the Nintendo 64. Although the glittering lights of the casinos were calling, crazymoose3k kept Donald Duck on the straight and narrow for a fastest race time of 2:16.73.

MTP75 was a base-stealing and bunting machine that set up a massive TG world record on Dusty Diamond's All-Star Softball for the NES. All MTP75 need was two innings to destroy the CPU team with a biggest blow-out score of 31 runs, nearly doubling the previous record set in 2010.

In Def Jam: Fight for NY lore, Crack is one of the toughest bosses to beat but LAH16 assured his friends he could pull it off in 30 seconds. Turns out, LAH16 was wrong – he was able to take out Crack in 18 seconds, sewing up a new TG record for good measure. Congratulations!
HAL, LOZ and CHZ – Undercover Cops (M.A.M.E.) – Points

HAL, LOZ, and CHZ didn't bring a knife to a gunfight, they brought a fish and a new personal best on the arcade beat 'em up Undercover Cops. Turns out that giant trout are fatal for bad guys, which gave our undercover team a brief rest from resuming their fighting onslaught as they finished with a combined score of 154,045 points.
This covers our Scoreboard Spotlight for this week. As a reminder, these were just a few of exceptional records that were adjudicated and accepted recently. Every record that made it through verification and landed on our leaderboards has a well-deserved place in the Twin Galaxies gaming pantheon.
Keep scoring high, finishing fast, and game on!
