Gamers Guinness Book Of World Records

Anyone else seen this yet?

i justheard about it and i only know that Kane is listed the logest running computer game charactor/actor (Wahoo). Joe Kucan seemed quite chuffed about it.
Its a good idea because the regular guinness book only had 2 pages to gaming and i always found it interesting.

Yeah i seen it in Game, I think it was 15 or 20 Euro, Bit expensive for the size of it. It would be better to fit it into the Guinness book of records.

I got it as a present, it's really cool. Most gaming franchises are covered, it's all very interesting (in a nerdy sort of way). If you're tempted, go for it!

Bought it myself last week when I was picking up Mario Galaxy, it was crying out to me from its display as I queuing to pay.
It's perfect jacks reading and has plenty of interesting facts and tit bits. One thing I am a little disappointed in is the arcade game section being an oul lad myself, they have a section for the top 50 or 100 or similar arcade games but only have a couple of lines for each one but apart from that it's a good read.

That's the going rate I suspect as the RRP is £15.

Just the sort of thing that would be great when sitting on the throne. Will have a look for it today.

It certainly does look like some good dip in and out reading. Just stick in an order on play. Good price for it.

Have 2 mates that were invited to the launch night, the video of which is on Xbox Live Marketplace, and they both set records aswell.

If I remember correctly there was a decent sized segment about this on the first Citizen Game podcast (pilotcast).

They get there arcade scores from Twin Galaxies. TG have a website with a database you can search. Or you can buy the TG book which has all the arcade records.
