Outrageous scores values - iphone

Question

please can someone help me out here. I am trying to display highscores and scores on my game over screen using the code below but I get these values
High: 327178665342
Score: 89254400
which are not consistent with what the actual scores I have on the hud display.
This is the code I am using to retrieve and display the scores:
-(id)init{
self = [super init];
if (self != nil) {
int score;
_score = score;
self.scoreLabel.string = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"Score: %d",_score];
// 6
NSUserDefaults *defaults = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
NSInteger highScore = [defaults integerForKey:#"BatHighScore"];
// 7
if(score >= highScore) {
highScore = score;
[defaults setInteger:score forKey:#"BatHighScore"];
[defaults synchronize];
}
self.highScoreLabel.string = [NSString stringWithFormat:#"High: %d",highScore]
}
return self;
}
#end
Is there something I am doing wrong here?

It is likely that you never initialize score in your code and get garbage value.
int score; // garbage
_score = score;
Try initializing score with default value you should get better results.
It's not really clear what you are trying to accomplish here, maybe you want to define an designated initializer like that :
-(id)initWithScore:(NSInteger)score {
self = [super init];
if (self != nil) {
_score = score;
// ...
