* ''[[Grand Theft Auto]]'' is ''overwhelmingly popular'' in Brazil largely due to its open-world gameplay and extensive customisation the series gives to players. It isn't uncommon for a Brazilian gamer from the 2000s to spend hours wreaking havoc in ''San Andreas'' either on a PS2 with a bootleg copy, or on PC where countless Brazil-themed mods were made by the local modding scene. It came full circle in 2012 when Rockstar released ''[[Max Payne 3]]'', set in [[São Paulo]].
** The ''GTA'' series also experienced a surge of popularity in the Philippines especially in the 2000s during which the 3D era (''GTA 3'', ''Vice City'' and ''San Andreas'') was in full swing.

It even got a [https://techcrunch.com/2011/06/29/3940-l-a-noire-gets-almost-perfect-score-from-japanese-game-magazine-famitsu/ near-perfect score] from ''Famitsu'', a rarity among Western-developed games. It helps that detective fiction is a popular literary genre in Japan, and that the game's interrogation mechanic is reminiscent of visual novels.
