A tactic -- often an exploit -- in a videogame with [[Scoring Points]] that provides you with a very rapid or near-infinite stream of points. Some instances of Score Milking are the result of [[Good Bad Bugs]], other times it's just [[Gameplay Derailment]].
[[Your Mileage May Vary]] on how fun this is. Some find it a neat and advanced way to improve one's scores, others (especially in the case of milking bosses) find it [[Fake Longevity|repetitive and tedious]].
See [[Infinite 1-Ups]] for the [[Video Game Lives]] equivalent, and [[Level Grinding]], for the [[RPG]] equivalent.
