The gameplay is almost the same in GTA 1 and in the expansion packs, the cops' behaviour, the point and the mission system are the same. The only difference is that the London mission packs take place in London and not in [[America]]. |

Revision as of 20:12, 14 February 2010
Grand Theft Auto: London, 1969 is the first expansion pack, to the original Grand Theft Auto. GTA: London 1969 was released in 1999 for the PC and PlayStation. It offered 32 brand new missions, as well as a total of 30 new vehicles, relative to the time period.
The game is very similar to the original Grand Theft Auto because it uses the same game engine and is presented in the same format of missions, sections and cutscenes.
Another expansion pack, Grand Theft Auto: London 1961, was later released solely for the PC version and offered as free download from Rockstar. It requires GTA London 1969, which in turn requires GTA 1.
As the name implies, the game takes place in London in the year 1969. The player once again enters the role of a criminal looking to work his or her way up the career ladder of organized crime. The temporal setting has been exploited through a number of cultural and historical references, including the appearance of a James Bond-like character and the usage of more or less authentic slang. In addition, the cars drive on the left side of the road, as is the case in Britain.
Chapters
All of the chapters take place in London:
- Boys Will Be Thieves
- Mods and Sods
- Chelsea Smile
- Dead Certainty

- Rocket Launcher - Only used for destroying vehicles, but buildings will also catch fire when shot. It is found only in rare places.
