GTA IV Sets Three Guinness Records

Dusty Old Authority Adds GTA IV to Winners

As reported over at the delightfully-named Geeks of Doom, GTA has now broken three records kept by the Guinness Book (remember them) for fastest-selling and highest-grossing entertainment products. That's not just videogames, notice, but also includes movies, dvds and such. More inside....

Combining sales for XBox360 and PS3, the records broken include...

Biggest Entertainment Release of All-Time
Highest Grossing Video Game in 24 Hours
Highest Revenue Generated by an Entertainment Product in 24 Hours

With worldwide sales just ramping up (the game hasn't even been released in all markets yet), we expect the dusty old record book of legend will be ordering up a few more pigeon-shaped trophies soon, too.
