The current record for 'Longest time spent playing Grand Theft Auto IV' (and yes, such a record does exist) is held by one Jim Patton, who played the game for 28 hours straight.
Tomorrow, 26-year Mumbaikar Chirantan Patnaik plans to one up the man, setting his sights on 30 continuous hours of GTA IV. 30 hours, ladies and gentlemen. Here's hoping he settles down with a good strategy guide, concentrates on all the distractions in Liberty City, and doesn't complete the main storyline before time.
To top off all this oozing geekiness, he's even livestreaming the entire event on the internet: so you can watch the attempt unfold in all its interactive drama.
Patnaik's attempt begins at 10 a.m on Friday, the 4th of September. Go watch.
