Guinness World Records - London Gaming Costume Gathering

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rj__eu_6zdo

There are lots of Marios, and I think I saw a ghost from Pac-Man. People gathered in London for the Guinness World Records for the largest assembly of people dressed as video game characters.

Somehow eighty people doesn't seem like a very big number to break a video game character gathering record, but I suppose it's never been recorded for the Guinness Book of World Records before so would then be a record.

The gathering is not the only game-related thing in the book:

I don't have a copy of the book, so I don't know just how many entries concerning games are in it.

Clearly, Guinness has never been to A-kon.
