So I just saw this article on CarThrottle:
http://www.carthrottle.com/uk-gaming-industry-catches-a-break-with-new-tax-relief/
To sum up, British game developers are now able to claim up to 25% of their production costs as tax credits, but the catch is that games have to be more patriotic; the more 'Britishness' it has, the more tax funds game companies will be able to reclaim.
What do you think it implies for future games by British developers? More British cars/scenery in games by Codemasters and Slightly Mad Studios? Or even a GTA London? Post your thoughts!
