Now that the patch is out. Well, I'm not the one who originally found "infamous Japanese exploit" but I know it. I doubt anyone did actually use it to get to the top of LB. (Kelora was not the one who found it. He was saying "I'm playing Super Ox mode!" in his motto, and I think his score is probably the result of Super Ox LNLM)

I don't think I'll write the conclusion here. It's like a brain excersice. You have all clues. If you succeed you will discover it.

Well NOT any more, it's been patched, it can't happen again

I hereby declare E4 to be the ultimate stoner game.

Unlimited mode is such a pleasent way to spend an hour or so. I love the fact that you get 20 second toke-breaks every minute or so. That must have been by design, surely.

Fuckin' magic

I was originally a bit dissapointed by the fact that it plays nothing like the PSP version, and is about 100 X less intense, but it's not like I can't go back and play it. The two versions (EEE & E4) are perfect parallel companions. EEE for when you want to sweat and twitch for 30 mins, and E4 for when you just want to mong out and watch a score sky-rocket upwards while you toke and reflect.

Eurogamer, as usual, are quick to assess the game under their requisite checklist. This just betrays both their workload and inflexibility in assessing anything out of the ordinary. (and the fact that they probably didn't receive a bung).

I just stupidly played unlimited mode. Level 1, 515 trillion points, over more than three hours (it took 1 hour 15 mins to get 100x multiplier). I let the timer run itself out to finish. Gives me 11th on the leaderboard. I now have a desire never to play bastard unlimited mode ever again.

The highest score on the leaderboard is currently 2 quadrillion points - must've taken about ten hours

I see TodaysForgotten is in 4th with 1.2 quadrillion points

Seems you can download and burn Guitar Hero III demo for playing on 360. Obviously much more convenient than marketplace. Link. It's legal, according to the bit that says "legally".

Presumably you'd need the guitar controller from GH2 though?

From what folks are saying about EEEE, it's simple enough, it could be one of Microsoft's 'Imagine Cup' (um... I think) challenges, where you have to write a DLL to play a perfect infinite game of EEEE.

You can play Guitar Hero with a joypad too.

Oh good, my ridiculous buildup of MS points (due to various deals I've managed to score on the prepaid points cards

) might finally start to be eaten into then.

The Need For Speed: Prostreet demo is up for download.

And the "Speed" part is certainly accurate! It's very swift indeed!

I downloaded and tried out the Guitar Hero 3 demo last night. The graphics are much more crisp and clear and just generally have a better 'feel' to them.

As for the game - well it's basically just the same as GH2. I know they've put loads of new features in the game but it seems the demo focuses just on the main gameplay mechanic.

Still good fun though - and the track listing is looking quite nice.......

Edit: It's probably worth mentioning that the demo is now available on the Marketplace so you no longer have to bugger around burning DVD's and stuff.

So Battlestar Galactica then. Who thought it was a good idea in a game where the world rotates around you to have a non-rotating radar? And who then decided to make your ship so small on it that it's almost impossible to tell which way you're facing?

The only consolation is that the games so crap the radar wont bother you for long.
