Biggest Pokemon Stuff Collection
UK Pokemon fan Lisa Courtney has collected 12,113 different items of Poke-stuff to set the - you’ve guessed it - Largest Collection of Pokemon Memorabilia record. She’s sourced items from Europe, the US and Japan, making several trips there and sending boxes of Poke-stuff back. Her favourite item is an Absol doll bought from eBay.
Biggest Sandbox Game
Grand Theft Auto, of course, is the most famous of what we call ‘sandbox’ games. But which game holds the record for the largest sandbox playing area? The award goes to Eidos’ fun but flawed Just Cause, which sports over 250,000 (virtual) acres to play in. Big, eh? Yes.
Bestselling Series
It’s not hard to guess what holds the record for best-selling video game series of all time. It is, of course, the Super Mario Bros series. Our favorite plumber has shifted over 201 million copies. Not bad for a chubby little chap in dungarees.
Best Selling Mario game
The best-selling 3D platformer of all time is Super Mario 64 – not bad for a 13-year-old N64 game! Will Super Mario Galaxy be able to claim a similar record when it reaches its teenage years?
Most Square Miles in a racing game
Codemasters’ 2009 racer Fuel holds two Guinness gaming records – it sports the longest draw distance in a racing game (a massive 40km!) and the largest playable environment in a game, with over 5,000 square miles to traverse.
Most Songs in a racing game
Licensed music is all the rage these days: screaming round a corner on two wheels while the hottest hits of the day blare from your in-game stereo is what it’s all about. But it’s Rockstar’s Midnight Club: Los Angeles that holds the record for the most licensed tracks in a game, sporting a whopping 97 songs.
Longest Racing Game
The longest racing game marathon ever attempted is held by the UK gaming community Ready Up. They played Burnout Paradise non-stop for 24 hours on 18-19 April 2009. Ouch.
Best Selling Racing Game Ever made
What’s the best-selling racing game ever made, then? One of the Gran Turismos, perhaps, or an F1 game? Nope. The answer is – ta da! – Mario Kart Wii, which since its release in 2008 has sold 15.4 million copies. Gran Turismo A-Spec, the previous record holder, sold 14.89 million copies.
Millionaire
As we all know, games are certified Platinum when they sell over a million copies – but Gran Turismo Prologue was the first ever racing game to get Platinum pre-orders. It sold over a million copies before it was released!
Speedy seller
Mario Kart Wii might have the single racing game sales record, but in terms of a racing game series, Need for Speed has got it all wrapped up, selling 100 million copies since the series began in 1994.
Ninja speed
Ninja Gaiden Black, released on the Xbox 360 in 2005, is of course one of the hardest games known to mankind. In fact, it is officially harder than stones. So our hats are off to Mr. Josh Mangini, who holds the world record for completing it in the fastest time – an astonishing one hour, 55 mins and five seconds.
Highest score
The highest-rated fighting game ever is Namco’s Soul Calibur, released on the Sega Dreamcast in 1998. It has an average review ranking on Metacritic of 98%.
First film
Videogames notoriously don’t translate well to the medium of film. Think of Street Fighter or Dead or Alive (we’d rather forget Alone in the Dark and Bloodrayne, thanks). Not great, were they? The very first fighting game turned into a film was Double Dragon, which came out in 1994.
Sauron sells out
Hack-and-slash fighting games have their own entry in the Guinness World Records Gamer’s Edition, including such games as Devil May Cry and Ninja Gaiden. But, oddly enough, the best-selling game to fall under this banner is none other than EA’s Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers, which has sold 4.28 million copies worldwide since release in 2002.
Best fighter
OK, here’s something that may come as a surprise to fighting fans. (Or maybe not.) Who do you think is the strongest character in Capcom’s Street Fighter IV – the one who’s won the most online matches? It’s not Ken or Ryu, or even Dhalsim, but rather Sagat. He’s got a win-loss ratio of 49:31, having won a whopping 61% of matches.
Smashing stuff
The best-selling fighting game of all time is Nintendo’s Super Smash Bros. Brawl. Released in May 2008, it has since sold an impressive 8.43 million copies. During its first week on sale, it sold at the rate of two units per second. Wow.
Poison Dwarf!
The world’s Youngest Professional Gamer is Victor De Leon III, or Lil Poison to his friends. He started gaming at age two, is now the grand old age of 11 and has held the record since 2005.
Pronto portal
Valve’s mind-bending puzzle game Portal – included as part of The Orange Box in 2007, alongside Team Fortress 2 and Half-Life 2 and its first two accompanying episodes – took us rather longer to complete than we’d have liked. American Cody Miller, though, set a world record speed-run by whizzing through it in just 24 minutes and 37 seconds.
Popular puzzler
Ah! The eternal question; what is the most popular game of the century? It’s not Tetris, as that was launched in the last century. Nope, it’s PopCap’s little game that could, Bejeweled. Since May 2001, it’s been downloaded more than 350 million times and has sold more than 25 million units. Somebody, somewhere, has made a little bit of money.
Most objects
There can be only one record-holder when it comes to the category of ‘Most Unique Objects in a Puzzle Game’, and that record holder is, of course, the DS puzzle adventure Scribblenauts, released last year. Containing over 10,000 unique usable items, surely only the inevitable sequel can top this.
Tetris high score
The NES version of Tetris was released way back in 1988, but it took until last year for someone to reach the perfect score of 999,999 on the game. Harry Hong of Los Angeles, California made the record on April 19, 2009 after four years of practice.
Biggest team
As if there was any more evidence needed that games development is getting ever more sprawling, unwieldy and expensive, consider this: the game that holds the world record for the largest development team of any Japanese roleplaying game is Final Fantasy XIII. One hundred people created the CGI cut scenes, while a team of 200 handled the rest of the game. Gobsmacking.
Unit shifter
Sticking with Japanese role-playing games, you might be slightly surprised to learn that the best-selling Japanese RPG ever is Pokemon Red/Blue/Green. First released in 1996 (that long ago! How time flies), they’ve shifted a total of 31.38 million copies.
Expansioneering
Expansion packs for games are nothing new, especially in the world of RPGs – just look at World of Warcraft’s many add-ons. But the reigning champ of RPG expand-o-trons is Sony’s Everquest (released in 1999), with a massive 16 expansions. How much would that cost you, eh?
