Sales for the original GTA
[edit]According to this [1] the original sold 6 million units. Can this be added? Timur9008 (talk) 10:03, 23 October 2024 (UTC)
- Good find; I have no reason to doubt it. I've added it here and on the game's article (and anyone is welcome to revert if I've misjudged). – Rhain ☔ (he/him) 10:21, 23 October 2024 (UTC)

insert between:
"It is primarily developed by British development house Rockstar North (formerly DMA Design), and published by its American parent company, Rockstar Games.
and
"The name of the series is a term for motor vehicle theft in the United States."
DMA Design's first office was in Dundee, Scotland, above a restaurant at the foot of Perth Road.
It is important to give credit to the original Scottish developers, who were definitely not British. There's a HUGE difference. Artemiseritu (talk) 11:25, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
- Not done. It's more appropriate for the developer article where the first office at 134B Nethergate is already covered, referenced and photographed. Also that article has already fully discussed the "Scottish not British" issue many times, as the FAQ says "The company is registered with the UK Companies House, is regulated under UK laws, and applies to a UK tax relief scheme. The company is thus considered British (as in "a UK company", not "English"), which applies to companies from all UK constituent countries and is not biased against Scotland." Also on Wikipedia we only write Dundee, we never write Dundee, Scotland as it insinuates that Dundee is insignificant and needs disambiguation. - X201 (talk) 12:32, 13 December 2024 (UTC)
