A group of Dutch gamers are going after the world record for non-stop gaming. Their game of choice? Red Dead Redemption. They will start this friday and go for over 40 hours!

Roughly translated...

"Friday at 13:00 hours the record begins in the Dixons site for the Lijnbaan Rotterdam.

The six players will play Red Dead Redemption on PlayStation 3 consoles that are connected to Vogel's Twist Dock, which remain constantly charged with no interruptions.

For achieving the world record, the winner gets a mention in the Guinness World Records book, the prize of 1000 Euros, and a Twist Dock.

Albert Seaman, vice president of Vogel's Innovations and founder of the record: 'This record is about endurance and perseverance. Currently the Guinness World Record in the gaming category is forty hours. Here we obviously go over. On July 18 we will know whether it was successful or not. Exciting!'"
