This "Second Edition" released in 2007, was originally meant to be part of a 3 volume set, with "Arcade Games" being the first of the three volumes. The planned second and third volumes were to focus on "Console Gaming", and "PC Gaming". However these do not seem to have been published. The "Third Edition" released in 2009, the final book released by Twin Galaxies, was also planned to be a 3 volume set. Both the "Second", and "Third" editions of the guide were available in Paperback, Hardcover, and eBook versions. The word "Edition" in the title, refers to the number in the series, and not the actual "versions"/editions of that each book.

The "Guinness World Records: Gamer's Edition" has been released every since its first release.
