Great idea, Rob. I play no video games myself, but when my stepson had The Getaway, in 2002, I was amazed at the accuracy of the streets. All the shops were in the right place, and as he ‘drove’ around London, it looked 100% accurate. He even got me to check for him (he lived in Hertfordshire, and didn’t know London) and I couldn’t fault it.
Best wishes, Pete.
