Guinness World Records invites you, gamer, to Barcade in Brooklyn this Thursday, April 10, to try to break five world records. You’ll be shooting for a fastest time in Ms. Pac-Man; fastest time in Tapper; highest Out-Run score; highest Ghosts & Goblins (good luck with that, one of the hardest games I’ve ever played); and high Donkey Kong score without using a hammer. Truly awe-inspiring stuff, no doubt.

One caveat. Barcade, as the name implies, is a bar, meaning you’ll need to be at least 21-years-old to enter. Other than that, step right up. I don’t see why I shouldn’t show up. Maybe I’ll get Peter to tag along.
