Lara has a Guinness.....

[dhama]

On Friday Lara Croft entered the Guinness Book of World Records as the "most successful human video game heroine" in history.

"transcending the boundaries of video games and becoming a recognisable figure in mainstream society".

:thumbsup:

It was only a matter of time for the ol' girl ;)

I figured that was coming, it's about time. :D :thumbsup:

Who would be some of the other possible candidates?

Bravo Lara.

Out of curiosity, does anyone know who is the most successful human video game hero? I can think of a couple of candidates.

[Raziel_Requiem]

Possibly Mario for one being the overall best human character....

As for other female candidates... that's a good question.

I wonder how they 'measured' the success... Did they consider the lifetime, number of game sales, merchandise sales, spin-off movies?
