Not as good as 2008 edition

This is a brilliant guide to gaming but fails to live up to the brilliance and originality of the 2008 edition. They have called it Guiness World Records but there isn't actually many records in there; just about different genres of gaming mainly. With both the 2008 and 2009 edition I don't know if they will have enough information to create another one next year...

I already have this due to appearing in the book several times, although not as indepth as the previous, this new edition is more for the next-gen gamer, as the arcade section has been shortened as the COD WAW section is spread over 5 pages, with gears 2 with 3 pages also. For ages 16-25.
