Danny Johnson, New Guitar Hero Record

14-year-old Texan Danny Johnson is now the holder of the new world record in Guitar Hero III: Legends of Rock, after scoring 973,954 points playing DragonForce’s “Through the Fire and Flames” at a Guinness World Records event in Manhattan. After his record-setting performance at the media event, sponsored by Guinness World Records to promote Guinness World Records 2009 Gamer’s Edition, Danny revealed one of the techniques he used to beat the old record by such a wide margin: calculating the optimal moments to use the game’s Star Power function, which gives bonus points for a short time during a song.
