“This name change serves as the final integration of our product development teams in New York and Scotland,” stated Sam Houser, President of Rockstar Games. “The team in Scotland is made up of unique and truly talented individuals and it is a real pleasure to be able to formalize our close working relationship. The fact that ‘Grand Theft Auto 3’ has become the biggest selling PlayStation 2 title ever in major markets like Germany, the UK and the United States is a triumph and testament to the team in Scotland led by Les Benzies and the way we work together with completely open lines of creative communication and mutual respect.”
