House of The Dead: Overkill is the most profane videogame in history
What is the most profane game of all time? The House of the Dead: Overkill for Wii!
This according to the Guinness World Records, the leading global authority on all things record-breaking, including videogames.
And for the latest “Guinness World Records: Gamer’s Edition”, The House of the Dead: Overkill broke the record for the most swearing ever in a videogame, with a whopping 189 uses of the f-word. Thus the Guinness World Records recognizes The House of the Dead: Overkill as the most profanity laden videogame in history.
To put the profanity of Overkill n some context, of the relatively limited dialogue in the game, the campaign features 189 uses of the f-word, which equates to just over one per minute and three percent of all words spoken in the game.
Video Games Records Manager for Guinness World Records, Gaz Deaves, said: “This record category pre-existed for movies, music and television, but House of the Dead: Overkill is the first videogame to be awarded the title in the Gamer’s Edition. It’s a mark of the times.”
The new record will be shortlisted for inclusion in next year’s Guinness World Records Gamer’s Edition. Meanwhile, the 2009 Gamer’s Edition hit stores last month and has already received critical acclaim from both the gaming world and the mainstream press.
