Not only is Sega and Headstrong Games' House of the Dead: Overkill a gratuitously violent interactive take on grindhouse films, but it's also pretty profane--the most profane game around, says Guinness World Records.

The records authority says the lightgun game drops the "f-bomb" 189 times in about three hours of "relatively limited dialogue," or just over one f-word per minute. The Queen Mother of All Swear Words accounts for about 3 percent of all spoken words in the game.

Gaz Deaves, videogames records manager for Guinness said, "This record category pre-existed for movies, music and television, but The House of the Dead: Overkill is the first videogame to be awarded the title in the Gamer’s Edition. It’s a mark of the times.”

Ironically, the most profane game is found on the Nintendo Wii, a console whose software is largely portrayed as family-friendly.

House of the Dead: Overkill writer Jonathan Burroughs said the recognition is fitting, and in line with what U.K. developer Headstrong was trying to accomplish.

"It is a dubious honour to receive such an accolade working in an industry where so often the fruits of your labours are derided and dismissed for being puerile or irresponsible, but in the case of The House of the Dead: Overkill a little puerility was the order of business," he said.

"Parodying the profane excess of grindhouse cinema was Headstrong Games’ objective and I am flattered that this record acknowledges that we not only rose to that challenge, but entirely exceeded it.”
