When Dan first told me that he was planning an attempt to claim the Guinness world record for longest fighting game marathon I knew that we needed to set up a live stream so that fans could follow along and interact with the Game Informer crew that consisted of Dan Ryckert, Jeff Cork, Tim Turi, and Ben Reeves. But at a certain point I got the itch to do a little bit more. As a fan of Smash Bros. and stupid stunts in general, I thought that it would be a good idea to utilize our two HD cameras and capture some of the insanity on tape so that I could cut together a quick highlight reel. Well, much like the history of Volition video, things quickly spiraled out of control. Hundreds of gigabytes of footage later I realized that I had a full documentary on my hands. I apologize that it took so long (the attempt occurred in March) but I hope that you enjoy this all-encompassing look at what happens when four video game magazine editors attempt to break a Guinness world record by playing Super Smash Bros. Brawl for over 27 consecutive hours.

Note: The video contains some harsh language.
