This week, my pick for Featured User is StarSlay3r. She has some awesome chops on Guitar Hero, as you will be able to see with your own eyes. Her collection of videos is quite impressive. 


Check out some of her videos:

Those scores and rankings are stellar! Can you beat that?

From her blog, you can also get a peek of what it is like to pursue a career in gaming. She writes:

Here's why I'm so busy that I don't really check my myspace, answer my phone calls or come on here anymore.
- Practicing the following games all at once before work, breaks/lunch, after work:
Guitar Hero 3, Rock Band 1, Rock Band 2, FIFA 2009, PGR4, Virtua Fighter 5, Soul Caliber 4, Halo 3, COD 5 Beta, and trying to get those damn achievements on Geometry Wars: Evolved!
- Working/ commuting to work still takes up most of my weekdays.
- Going to the Rock Band 2 reality show taping tomorrow to root on my friends in the band "Scared Puppy".
- Going to get my passport on Friday
- Going to be gone on Saturday for an important interview.
- If Sat. goes well I'm going into HARDCORE practice mode from Sunday to Thursday. No work, no going out, nothing but practice and the gym. I'm excited... I need a week like this!
- I got hired to do the Guitar Hero: World Tour Launch! I'll be working as Judy Nails playing with/against everyone. Stop by, check out the game, play with me, and get your copy of World Tour at Midnight!
It's at the Best Buy in West Hollywood, corner of Santa Monica and La Brea. Saturday, October, 25 from 8pm-Midnight
- Been working on two costumes. Judy Nails outfit for the launch party and American McGees version of Alice. Don't even get me started on that. FRUSTRATION!!!!!
- Getting ready to move. Not far don't worry! I'm just moving a few miles away with Nick in his new place.
- Still in talks with Ubisoft about being a Cadette. Did one event with them but they're still not sure when the Cadette thing will be going into full effect. :(
- Picked up a new sponsor: YOU SCARED? Clothing. :D I feel like I'm in Guitar Hero. haha They'll be making my shirts from now on. :D
Basically in short I'm trying really hard to be an awesome player. I want really bad just to be at a top Pro level where I don't have to work full and can just work part time and spend the other 20 hours busting my ass practicing at home. I hope that by next year I get a great team to be a part of.

There you have it. She's busy and rockin'. That just goes to show that you have to be completely committed to get to the top, and it looks to me like she's working superhard. We at PWNorDIE wish her the best.

Think you can PWN like StaySlay3r? Send me a message and tell me what ya got.
