European SFIV champion, Ryan Hart from Hull defeated 169 opponents in a row for over four-and-a-half hours at the GameStation store in Hull‘s Prospect Centre, smashing the previous world record of just 61.
Hart was delighted with his impressive achievement, saying:
"At one point I was really unsure whether or not I would beat the record, but I just put my mind to the task and got on with it. It was a great result."
"It was like watching a machine in action! Ryan is a terminator.”
"One after the other, the challengers fell by the wayside as Ryan sat calmly, quietly knocking them off like a silent killer.”
"His quickest victory - a perfect finish - took just seven seconds against a bewildered Chun-Li. The average survival time was about 12 seconds. It was a massacre in Hull."
7 seconds! Damn, that’s impressive. Congratulation, Ryan from all of us here at VGS.
