I still love Metal Slug 3, it's sad these days to see it getting so much flack. It was clearly designed under the presumption SNK Corporation wouldn't be making any more slugs, what with going under and all.

Which route is best for score?

I did upper area and then boat ride for the first stage.
Since you have time to clear two missions, i'd say the best path is up and then ice cave on mission2.

721k, I need to figure out how to dispose of the zombies quicker.
Again, speed is not necessarily the name of the game here. You need to understand how the scoring works and where your opportunities are.
Blasting a bad guy with a shotgun gets a quick bad guy death, but each knifing gets you 500 points or each pistol shot 100 points.
Like I said, it has been forever since playing 3, but playing for score is different than just trying to blast your way through as much of the game as possible in 5 minutes.
He's playing "caravan mode" though. Not sure if its different from the actual game, but I imagine it is. Don't have this port myself. Might have some gimmick to it where speed gives a bigger bonus.
Caravan Mode is just starting the regular game on default difficulty with a 5 minute timer. So far I'm up to 400,000 something, have a rank of 125. Must do better!
Like Gohan said, its the same game, now I admit that there is probably a balance between standing around waiting for three grunts to appear and wasting thirty seconds for 1500 points, but I would wager that waiting for all of the hostages is necessary for the end stage bonus.
Unless it is possible to get through two full stages, my guess is that the high score is from a flawless mission 1 plus a little of mission 2.
