As a kid, I was always fascinated by the Guinness Book of World records. There were and still is a litany of strange world records listed. My favorite strange record was the one for longest fingernails. Today the book is also available in an edition for gamers.
Guinness and Warner Brothers Digital announced today that a new game for the iPhone is now available on the App Store that lets players break world records. Not only can the player set records in the virtual world, but the player who racks up the most points by August 15 will get a real world record as well.
The players have to save their scores to a GameSpy account and the winner will get their name in the next Guinness World Records 2010 Gamer’s Edition. The game itself was developed by TT Games and features cockroach eating, melon crush and the largest bubblegum balloon.
