How do you get it to tell you your score? It keeps telling me I have to score at least 60.

[paul calf]

it should tell you your current score in the top corner it updates everytime you get one right.

[SubMethod]

Oh well, it's not working for me, and I know I've gotten at least thirty of them right so far.

You have to put the artist in the top slot and the album title in the bottom. Also, maybe case sensitivity applies? I'm not sure.

[TheJadedGamer]

I looked over it, and from what I've seen, I could name about 20-30 of them.

[Lumiere]

Got full marks.

It was easy.

[paul calf]

can you name them then because i am struggling on quite a few,would like to know what they all are.

[chilli pepper]

This thing either has to be CAPS sensetive or retarded, because theres at least fifteen on there I KNOW for a FACT I got right and it isnt counting them.

Ditto. I'm wondering how anal it is over specific titles, because I'm screaming at the screen for a few here.
