'Grand Theft Auto Online' Goes Live With Server Problems

Rockstar Games just launched the Grand Theft Auto Online multiplayer option, which is free to download for players who have GTA V. After going live Tuesday, many players experienced delayed load times as servers struggled to handle the rush of users.
