Now that Mozilla has set a Guinness World Record with Firefox 3 for the most software downloads in a single day, Nvidia is looking to set a world record of its own. During this year’s Nvision event to take place in August, the company will attempt to “make history” with the world’s longest non-stop LAN party.

To set the record a team of gamers will have to play video games for 36 hours straight, with a break of 10 minutes for every hour played. If the record is achieved, the participating team members will receive numerous prizes including custom gear and gift cards. So there you have it, if you are a hardcore gamer and want to help Nvidia make it into the book of records, you can sign up at the Nvision 08 registration site.
