World Record Attempt:
Yes, this will be a world record attempt For legal reasons we cant say which world record outlet, but its a *pretty* big one ;-). Well be collecting data and staffing witnesses to submit all appropriate evidence to hopefully secure the world record for Longest First Person Shooter Marathon.
The rules, in a nutshell, are: Must play a single, non-stop session of gaming, with the following exceptions: 10 minute rest periods are accrued for every 1 hour of consecutive gaming. These rest periods can be banked to take a longer break, such as a 60 minute break, as long as you play for 6 hours consecutively. Load screens and lobby intermissions do not count against your record, so long as no further human interaction is required to get the round to start.
