Grand Theft Auto V has had a lot of praise heaped upon it, even by us in our review. While the online component undergoes a few growing pains, at leas the single player is a consistently solid experience. GTAV is now set for the record books, breaking seven Guinness World Records in total. While there is a tiny bot of overlap between the records they do count as separate ones, so expect to be seeing Rockstar’s name a lot in this years gaming edition of the long-running record keeping book.
