GTA V: 10 Reasons It’s So Unbelievably Hyped

5. R*€™s Track Record

Of course you know, R* aren€™t just responsible for the GTA franchise. No, no, no, they€™ve been responsible for, in my opinion, some of the greatest games ever made in terms of both innovation and story. Lest we forget; Red Dead Redemption was one of the most beautifully presented and immersive video games I might have ever played, and if you followed the Max Payne series, did you ever see a more inspirational yet cautionary video game character? Many of us trust R* now, implicitly. Sure they€™ve got their share of lacklustre titles, which Pub/Dev doesn€™t? But if we€™re talking about their triple-A titles, you can pretty much guarantee that enough time, money and effort will have been spent on making it as awesome as it can be. With such a proven track record, its little wonder that the next entry into their flagship series is so hotly anticipated.
