This will have a bit of a knock-on effect on the missions, but a new British sensibility to the combat will help. Gone too, obviously, thanks to the UK's strict firearm policy. Tying into the GTA series' increasing use of anti-heroes, you can also take solace that while you may still be forcing your enemies into concrete shoes, you're doing it with a spectacularly low carbon footprint. As your boss, Big Al "Da Crowbar" Killingsworth will explain, everyone's got to do their bit in the current recession. It may not have the class of driving around in a tank, but on the bright side, it does mean the wages of sin don't have to be wasted on congestion charges. For getting around in a hurry, the game's leading scumbag would instead make proper use of a Boris Bike. Driving around London is a stupid idea, which would need to be replaced with boosting characters' Oyster cards to travel on the Underground, or heading home to top-up at regular intervals. Okay, so most of the driving would have to go. Ones with actual actors, maybe.īut what if London had taken its place amongst the holy trinity of GTA cities, and been a true candidate for full-3D greatness? There are reasons to leave it out, sorry, leave it aaaaht of the running, like giving Rockstar the freedom to create whatever they want every console generation, but surely London, the very cradle of civilisation-with-an-s, deserves another chance?

you get the idea.īeyond that, the only real difference from the original is the inclusion of words like "ponce" and "tasty" and "leave it aaaht", though not usually in correct sentences. The big bad criminals in charge of London 1969 are the Crisp Twins, which is a reference to the Krays but not exactly a joke, there's a car called the Crapi, another called the James Bomb. Reset-wait, sorry, that's the option menu. This being before Lazlow showed up to make Chatterbox FM a thing of wonder and beauty worth parking a stolen car for, most of them are "clever" names that more than deserve their quotation marks.
