The best part of this story is that Chike actually drove two hours to compete at the Play N Trade store in Bloomington, Minnesota. Guess when you're the world record holder the trip seems worth it, considering you've probably got the win in the bag. Chike says he still hasn't done as well at any tournament event than he's done at home. The good thing about tournaments and competition is you only have to be better than second place.

I've managed to get through it on expert in full band mode, on defective drums. It took every other member staggering their overdrive through the whole song.

So maybe if you do get 1,000,000 points it does say "YOU ARE GAY!"

Back in 2000 (maybe 2001) my school had a Tony Hawk Pro Skater contest. My brother spent weeks bragging to everyone he would win. When the event came, he demanded to go last, to put all the haters to shame.
It was a 2-minute set-stage high score contest. Before he went up, the high score was 119,000. When he finished his first combo at 23 seconds in, his score was 123,000. Riots/drama/lulz ensued. Anyway he ended up with a score like 790k and about $200 cash.

Well meanwhile I took lessons to learn how to properly speak in public so now I say magnificent instead of I don't give a s*it.
I guess Lone Starr took the same course.
j/k
He said this event took place in 2000, so THPS1, maybe 2, were the only ones out. So, without the revert and maybe even the manual, it would be decidedly more difficult to ramp up a higher score.
yay.

If you think it 'Might be Worthwhile' because you could get laid, continue on, your probably right.

You should actually have to be good at a game to earn an "achievement"?

I had three different comments removed that were in reference to that same joke.

Fighting-game players travel across the country multiple times a year. I'm sure Halo/Madden people do too.
