K1lla's Xbox Domain interviews TheGrayWolf about the awesome burden of maintaining the highest gamerscore in the US of A (Currently 42,921). Getting there required the usual combination of obsessive play and obscure Japanese titles, plus some torturous hours with FIFA World Cup 2006. Surprisingly, TheGrayWolf says he wouldn't mind if Microsoft reset all scores to zero. Such is the pressure of being on top.According to the Wolf, current overall champ RANCE6 has notified his friends list that he will be retiring soon, so the top spot could be in US hands soon.

360 = life for TGW. Personally I find it kinda sad, but he sure stomps all over my ~5500.

To have a high gamer score you need two things...
lots of money to keep the games coming, and lots of time (all day every day) to play them)
I think its safe to assume that this is a rich guy with nothing else to do.
aside from that I dont think microsofts gamer score system is accurate. I'm ina position that i think others might find themselves in aswell.
The console has multiple accounts on, Mine, 2 other people plus a Live account we all share.
the gamer score on the Live account hasnt broken 50 yet. but if you look at the offline gamer scores you'll find a differnt story all together. however, offline gamer scores dont count for anything.

Most people play on their Live account. Why split up offline profiles? There's barely a point to that. Having seperate online personas makes sense...
If you both just used the Live account like you should be you'd have a bunch of gamerscore.
Not that it really matters.

My question though is why would you want to spend so much time getting that many points? Games like ridge racer, and some other games i dont consider fun would just be a waste of my time and i wouldnt enjoy playing them. By him being the top does it win him anything? I dont think so and its just about bragging rights which unless you have no life isnt that big a deal.

I love all those people who say "you have no life." Just jelous tbh..Instead of you people cribing about it, congratulate him. I'm sure all those huge sports stars only played one hour a week of their relative sports..Have'nt you seen any pro-gamers anyway? Example: f4tal!ty or something was interviewed by the 60 Minutes show and showed him playing games all day, but also making sure he stayed fit by going out and having plenty of excersice.
pshhh
