Grand Theft Auto V has been awarded Best British Game at the video game BAFTA awards today. It was honoured to Sam Houser:

Here's Sam Housers short but sweet acceptance speech.

 

Unfortunately, right now its the best video available.

 

Also, somehow they won "Best Multiplayer" but that's debatable at this current state.

Glad it won though, agree the best MP one is debatable though lol!

 

So where's all the fools that were like "GTA is maked in Murica 4 Muricans!!!1" then? :p

I posted this in another section but I guess it's most appropriate here.

 

Good to see GTA V pick up a few awards. Despite what people may feel about the game, Online, lack of PC etc etc, there's no doubt Rockstar have done amazing things with the technology they had in, what is now, last generation consoles. Fully deserving of the Fellowship award; nice to see the Houser brothers coming out of their comfort zone to accept it publicly on behalf of the team as well.

 

There sure is a whole lot of hair difference between Sam and Dan :lol:

It's even funnier because he does look like Dan in 20 years time :p

 

*edit* Purely on the basis he is bald.... :monocle:

So cool to finally see the Houser brothers in the flesh like this. A well deserved award to both them and the hundreds of Rockstar employees that helped create a masterpiece that is GTA V.

 

I was even honoured to have a couple of pints with a Rockstar employee some weeks ago. We all got drunk and constantly bombarded him with questions about future R* plans, but he unfortunately kept loyal to the NDA - a great laugh trying, though!

Only one of them is a Houser brother.. the old dude I'm guessing, handed Sam Houser the award.

 

You could just google them to see what they look like?:p

I honestly can't wait till they both get back to the office and kick the sh*t out of Brian B and Domislive!! :p

Brian B will get called into Dan's office.... He'll know exactly why... and as he walks into the room, that is what he see's, and Dan says "Right then ya wee coont,,,,,lets av ye!"

I suddenly have a lot more respect for these men. They really know how to make a game when it comes to GTA, I'll give them that.

^Holy sh*t! Dan is talking and we have it on video? He's like the bigfoot of R* games and we've finally got him.

He was talking at another awards thing a few weeks ago.

 

I think this awards were totally deserved, including the multiplayer. What might be even more important is that the VG Baftas are getting more recognition themselves, and are getting close to being equal to the Film and TV Baftas, which goes to show how close video games are to being seen by the public as a form of entertainment on the level of film or TV.

Exactly, this is why people like Brian B and Domislive really are lower then low and scum that R* could easily do without!

Well done Rockstar!

 

Rockstar are my favourite game developer and I think they deserve the award. Not one bad game from Rockstar have I ever played. Yes some are obviously better than others but I have NEVER played a game made by them and thought "This is sh*t". The way they work pisses a lot of people off but in the end the product is worth the wait because they get it right and it's real high quality.

 

Thank you Rockstar! Keep on doing what you do.

It's so strange to see them on video and even talking.

 

they rarely do interviews and i only know 2 videos with them in it and i've seen only a few photo's.

Unlike other game developers who do a lot of interviews and always try to get into the spotlight.

Seeing these 4 men together (Garbut, The Benz and the Housers) is like seeing 4 Bigfoots under the same tree in the forest. :p

Because these are the most humblest guys you will see in the gaming industry; They don't care about fame that much. They want people to know how creative their games are. It's exactly why they are tight lipped about their games especially GTA. But people are impatient.

It's interesting to see Dan Houser speaks in a video for the first time. Unlike his brother Sam, he seems more confident. Sam expresses his shyness by mumbling and avoidance of eye contact especially when he was talking to the girl. Leslie shows his Scottish pride with his highland dress. A very unique combination in the computer games industry!

Lol True but Sam is the Boss (President) of Rockstar so he doesnt need to do all the talking and he has been in a publicevent for over 9 years.

but yeah Dan seems more Confident for a VP and someone that also doesnt do Interviews or like his brother go to public events :)

 

OP:GTA 5 also won Best Game Design and Best Multiplayer (GTA Online).
