After GTA V: 10 Epic Cities Rockstar Should Parody Next

1. London

Rockstar have already visited London twice in previous games, but both of these games were set during the sixties and the city has changed a lot since 1969. The banking sector and financial institutes in London have become the crown jewels of the British economy and the skyline has begun to reflect this with new, glass-clad, buildings and new skyscrapers, including the European Union's current tallest building, The Shard. One of London's most famous tourist attractions, The Camden markets didn't open until 1973 and provide a perfect example of another reason a contemporary London would be perfect for the GTA treatment, community. Over the years, people from many different cultures have settled in London and small communities have built up in the various parts of London. Peckham, for example, has one of the largest overseas Nigerian communities in the world, and London is home to 90% of British Turks. Each of these communities could offer fresh characters and different missions but given the recent announcement of GTA V featuring three playable characters, I'd love to see a GTA London feature of playable cast representing a cross sections of these different communities and focus on the tensions but ultimately community that exists between these groups. This is just my list, I'm sure I've missed out some truly epic cities and I'd love to hear your suggestions in the suggestions and thoughts, so leave a comment below or on Twitter.
