If you have the biggest collection of Crash Bandicoot merchandise in the world, or can run through Jumping Flash faster than anyone, or even if you've just stayed up for a week straight playing Quake, the folks from Guinness World Records just may want to talk to you.

Guinness World Records editor in chief Craig Glenday explained the thought behind introducing a gaming-specific edition:

We reintroduced videogaming world records to our annual book a few years ago, and it’s proved to be one of the most popular sections with our core readers. It makes sense, therefore, to dedicate an entire annual to the subject.

So, what are we thinking? Longest LAN? Fastest feet playing DDR? Highest score in Joust?
