Hi guys, I'm working on a presentation for an English class, and I need examples of the usage of Scottish locations, personas or characteristics in the use of video games. I have the William Wallace Campaign from Age of Empires II, as well as the qualities of Dwarves in many games and how they exhibit many stereotypical Scottish traits. Any help would be appreciated.

Doesn't Scotland have a lot of computer animation/video game development schools? Or is that Ireland I'm thinking of?

Oh they do, GTA 3, Lemmings, and RollerCoaster Tycoon came from Scotland. I'm looking for games with Scottish characteristics in them though, not necessarily made by Scottish game developers.

Thanks for moving it to the Pool Room, I guess it'll get more activity here :p
