Hughes joined the Elite in July 2001 and played [[Perfect Dark]] continuously between then and his first retirement in early July 2002, just short of a year after joining, having peaked at rank 53rd in points and 51st in time. His notable PD times include 1:15 [[Villa]] [[A]], 3:01 [[Investigation]] [[PA]], 0:16 [[Chicago]] A and 0:27 [[War]] A, the latter two of which were world records at the time. He is a proud member of the 3-4-5 club (Agent times all under 3:00, SA all under 4:00, PA all under 5:00). He has also pulled off an 11-0 win in [[PD Challenge 30|Challenge 30]].
