Well, there is, and it sits alongside other gaming specific records that you may have never heard of &#8211; here are some of the more interesting ones.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Most swearing in a video game<\/h3>\n<p>Mafia 2 holds the record for the most F-bombs dropped in a game \u00a0&#8211; over 200 times. With the likes of Grand Theft Auto and South Park in existence, this is not a feat to be scoffed at. The following video contains some eloquent examples of the word&#8217;s use in the game.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/G6S8ugGGRwA?rel=0\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">The most cover-featured video game<\/h3>\n<p>Assassin&#8217;s Creed 2 is the super model of the gaming world, featuring on the cover of 127 magazines in 32 countries according to Guinness. The streak of cover appearances took place between April 2009 and April 2010. Ubisoft must be so proud.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/mVWhWsgHzKM?rel=0\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"my-4\">Most in-game marriages<\/h3>\n<p>Rift holds the record for the most marriages in a 24 hour period.
