review 1: Isaac “error1” Wehmanen completed Fallout 3 in 30 minutes 9 seconds. Bioshock 2 plus the Minvera’s Den expansion have 189 audio logs and Leon S. Kennedy has 47 unique death animations in Resident Evil 4. This is an example of the variety found in Guinness World Records’ latest collection of video game records. Having spent over a hundred hours playing Fallout 3, I have to imagine error1 missed the point of the game, but more power to him for exploiting glitches to do his speed run. I wish I had made the numerous glitches work for me.Aside from trying to be too 1337, Guinness has put together a great volume and its wealth of current information makes a great case for this being an annual product. The book is divided into genre subdivisions, and they’re smart and t... morehorough. Shooting, for example, is subdivided into First Person, Third Person, 2D Shooters, Online Shooters and Light Guns. Each major subdivision highlights a “Critical Hit” game which exemplifies the field, like Madden NFL for Sports.There’s a mostly modern spin, but classic systems are referenced and there’s plenty of love shown to arcade games. With nods to Farmville (the most popular Facebook game whose most expensive item is a 5,000,000 farm coin/$2835 mansion), Minecraft (among the Best of PC Games), and the iPad (the first 3D iPad game is Flight Control HD), the book isn’t showing any lag.Guinness adds extra value by sprinkling trivia throughout the volume and placing uncredited quotes at the bottom of each page which will have you flipping to the back of the book to prove you guessed the character and game correctly. Finally, Guinness pulls in many lists like the Twin Galaxies scoreboards, Top 50 Game Characters, Best of E3, Golden Joystick and other bests of 2010.Next year I’m looking forward to seeing if someone has unseated Halo 3’s $55 million budget as the Most Expensive FPS Videogame Ever Produced.
review 2: I think that this book was one of the greatest books for me with my gaming on my video games with my PS3. It would tell you information on what happend in 2010 with the video games that had came out that year. The releases that happend in 2010 with stidios games is that in the following week the goode games that game out had over 1,000,000 buyers those following weeks. In the book it showed actual photos of studios/creators get game of the year awards, other famous awards for games, and best creators, or studios award. It had familiar games in the book, and other familiar studios, and gamertags/people that I know from my brothers friends.This is the right book for you if you are a gaming freak. Christian less
