10 Video Game Guinness World Records That Will Blow You Away
10. Defeating Dark Souls Using Music Controllers (And More!)
Whatever your opinion on the online catchphrase "git gud" that's been associated with Metal Gear Online, Call of Duty and Dark Souls, the latter series certainly is known for its difficulty. Its just-released remastered edition is allowing a whole new group of gamers access to the perils of Lordran.
But when you hear about the world record breaking endeavours of Benjamin "bearzly" Gwyn, you'll realise he's gone beyond getting good. Gwyn currently holds the record for the fairly clumsily-named: "Most alternative control methods used to complete Dark Souls."
Using the PC version of the title, Gwyn has completed Dark Souls with Rock Band controllers, (including guitar and keyboard), a Wii Remote, a dancepad, the Donkey Kong bongos originally made for Nintendo GameCube and has pulled off a voice controlled run via microphone.
No word yet on whether or not the remaster release will have Gwyn pulling his record off again or not, but future plans include the Nintendo Entertainment System's Powerglove, which should be interesting, to say the least.
