If the protagonist is killed, a message will come up saying "You're Brown Bread!", which is Cockney rhyming slang for "you're dead". When arrested by the " cozzers", the police will say "You're Nicked!". Successfully completing a mission will result in a Cockney-accent saying "Nice one my Beauty!" If the protagonist attracts too much police attention, the London police will pursue, identified on the HUD by police heads with " English bobby helmets". Navigating the game menus causes sounds such as the chimes of Big Ben. The gameplay is almost the same in GTA, including the dock cranes for import/export, Kill Frenzies, police bribes, Pay 'n' Spray and bomb-fitting garages of the original, except the location and British specifics such as driving on the left hand side of the road.

It requires GTA London 1969 to play, which in turn requires GTA. 1961 was released solely for the PC version and offered as free download from Rockstar Games. In addition, the cars drive on the left, as is the case in Britain.Ī second expansion pack, Grand Theft Auto: London 1961, was later released featuring younger versions of the same characters featured in 1969, set eight years earlier in 1961. The temporal setting has been exploited through a number of cultural and historical references, such as Get Carter, The Italian Job, the appearance of a James Bond-like character and a Bond-like villain, and the usage of more or less authentic Cockney slang.
The player chooses the role of one of a group of stylish young hoodlums looking to work his or her way up the career ladder of London organized crime. As such, it (and the second expansion pack) are the only games in the series to take place in a non-fictional location. The game takes place in London, the capital city of England in the United Kingdom, and is set in the year 1969.
