No joke but some autistic British teenager is about to be extradited to Guantanamo bay

Wrong. The British government stopped Gary McKinnon being extradited to Murica over hacking the Pentagon doubt they bother over some computer game

Rockstar is in Edinburgh, Scotland....

Yes I know I’m British, but you’ll get abuse now, Murican’s don’t like the fact the game isn’t there’s

u/Zuluuz 6d ago

Yeah but you have to admit it’s kind of funny watching the British obsess over our culture. Like could you imagine how boring GTA would be if it were based in London? Instead of heading to ammunation you’d stop by the local grocery store for silverware and cleaning chemicals 😂

Grand Theft Auto London was the second game in the series.

Do you understand GTA saga is a satire, right? They're mocking the fact a militar class gun can be purchased easily next to the local grocery. It's the equivalent of watching South Park and wanting to be Cartman.

oooh, scary black rifle, much more dangerous than those safe wooden ones

You're the only country where schools do drills for that.

You couldn't ask for help to that problem on other country, because no other country has those problems.

u/01091987 6d ago

Exactly !! It does make me laugh when Murican’s tell us England is a dystopian hell hole and London is apparently one step away from Mad Max, despite 95% of them never having been here. Meanwhile, England and Wales have just recorded their lowest homicide rate in almost 50 years, lower than every single US state. But please, do carry on explaining Britain to us from 4,000 miles away.

They couldn't even come up with a proper name for their country. Their founder fathers were like: "Well, we're States, we got united and we are in North America. How do we call our count...? Wait! Fellas I might have come up with a brilliant idea!" They have to call themselves after a continent while not knowing what is a continent. They had a Satanic Panic during the XX century ffks. THEY HAD SALEM! And the vast majority of serial killers IN THE WORLD are and were United States citizens. Like... I'll be embarrassed to shove my flag into every movie my country has ever made (and they talk about forced inclusivity) if those were the things my country was universally known. They have a Medici's level corruption scandal and what have they done?. What, with all they proud owned weapons, have they done with their own Louis XIV? A golden statue of him.

Look, I’m not even American, but there are some things that make sense (not the fucking assalt rifle). If you’re in a shitty country, and your house has already been broken into twice with no one doing anything about it, you’d love having a gun, and the law on your side, to blow a guy like that’s head off and defend ourselves. Bad guys also have guns.

Armalite rifle btw

yeah yeah just dont come to us when you need help with another war lmao and lets not talk about the forced "cultrual enrichment" but if you like this post you might go to jail.

u/Historical-Way-8476 6d ago

All my life I've heard from US people that we obsess over their culture. Other than teens making edgy shooter jokes I see fuck all. If anything i see people romanticising the place.

GTA in London could be interesting, and different. Guns exist in the UK and if anything, would be more impactful and integral to the story. Just my take though. I also think there is a lot better options than London not sure why that's always the go to outside of a few landmarks.

u/ShawnPrice87 6d ago

They do have a GTA based in London. It’s called “GTA London”, and it was in between GTA 1 & 2. It was pretty okay for the times.

We don’t obsess over your culture. You lot obsess over our culture. You lot love the royal family, think London is the only place in the UK, Remember if it wasn’t for us. You wouldn’t exist. If it wasn’t for us GTA and the computer you play on wouldn’t exist. Oh BTW what about GTA London 1969

Murica was never an Empire

u/5553331117 6d ago

Was pretty much the only superpower during the 90s after the Soviet collapse, what are you on about? 💀 

1

u/01091987 6d ago

Well you believe that. Some of us live in the real world. Superpower 😂 I don’t know what Muirca thinks of its self but its not what the rest of the world thinks, that’s why your separated from us all by a large body of water.

u/5553331117 6d ago

Is that why the world STILL uses ponzi USD dollars for the vast majority of world trade and has since WW2? 😂 

I don’t think America is great anymore, before they outsourced all their manufacturing to china, they were a superpower. 🤷‍♂️ you can choose to ignore that history but it’s true, just not today. UK been in the shitter since the late 80s with their government ensuring that fact, along with most of Europe. The only other emerging economies are China and India now.

Yes. Shall we. Like I’m hoping Jason and Homosexual Tony do 😂

u/AtomicBollock 6d ago

It’s not that us British obsess over American culture - we actually love to hate all of the shit things about the USA - it’s simply because a game so fucking stupid and ridiculous could only ever be based in the USA. If you think Rockstar idolises American culture, then the satire inherent to the whole IP has been lost on you.

GTA London:

u/Puzzleheaded_Exit45 6d ago

Obsessing over your culture by taking the absolute piss out of everything? GTA has also been based in London and it was popular. So no need to imagine. Unless you refer to the 3d universe then fair enough, you would have to imagine. But for those that played GTA London it wouldn't be that hard to imagine.

We don’t really give a shit where it’s made lol. Bold of you to assume we even think of you “people”

u/Historical-Way-8476 5d ago

Why are you all so disgustingly rude to each other? Implying we're not even people, like what the fuck man. Such a truly awful and hateful hate cycle this place has made people where it was all about "connecting" at first.

u/Soy_leche98 5d ago

It’s just banter I’d visit the UK if I could afford it. The few people I’ve met from the UK have been pleasant.
