If you haven't heard about it already, and are one of the few pressed souls that hate Pokemon, Twitch Plays Pokemon "the social experiment" that has so far reached 11.5 Million views and is set to become the largest streamed video on the internet has caught the attention of the Guinness Book of World Records!
Quote:
According to statistics from the channel, the number of viewers continues to consistently climb. At the time of this post(just yesterday), more than 75,000 viewers were tuned in to watch the frantic stream of commands. The game's total number of button presses is more than 2.5 million.
Twitch Plays Pokemon has since spawned a subreddit and several imitations, including Twitch Plays Pokemon: Crystal Version, Twitch Plays Pokemon Plays Tetris and Twitch Plays Whatever. A photo posted on the Twitch Plays Pokemon subreddit reveals that the stream has been brought to the attention of Guinness World Records via Facebook.
Pokemon remains breaking records and makes another stamp on Pop culture history after the iconic release of Pokemon X&Y that quickly became the fastest selling 3DS video game of 2013. Who needs awards when you're still a Pop culture staple 20 years into your history
Pokemon is also currently the second largest video game franchise only after Mario. You can view the stream @ Twitch Plays Pokemon!
riot games have had 395,978,669 veiws though http://www.twitch.tv/team/lcs
not to mention they've had over 500k concurrent viewers on twitch alone. I dont get the record?
The last time I checked they were stuck in Silph Co., so the fact that they were able to finish and get out of there is amazing. This thing is beautiful
Why are people spamming 'Democracy' in the chat? Annoying as ****.
So frustrating to watch.
