- Danieru 6y agoStraight from the tax department: https://www.gov.uk/guidance/claiming-video-games-tax-relief-for-corporation-tax https://www.gov.uk/guidance/claiming-video-games-tax-relief-... Notice how the site claims cultural "British-ness" to be a requirement. Yet in reality GTA V passed this apparently low barrier. More likely the British-ness requirement is nothing more than a fig-leaf to appease the European Commission.
- jl6 6y agoFor what it’s worth, I do recognise a lot of the dark/surrealist humour in GTA as British, even though it is delivered through the medium of Americana.
- ajsnigrutin 6y agoGTA 6 - Britain, cast of players from Snatch (movie), and one star cops being unarmed, would be a fun game tho.
- nvrspyx 6y agoI'd love for GTA to go back to London (i.e. expansion packs for the first GTA). I'm ready to explore somewhere other than Liberty City, Vice City, or San Andreas, especially since the last one excluded a lot of areas from the original San Andreas.
- bserge 6y agoThe newest Watch Dogs is set in London, I believe. I've only watched the trailer, though.
- alexandargyurov 6y agoYes, it is! And they've done a superb job in my opinion. Very strange seeing your city in a video game - wish there were more London, or European city, based open world games.
