GTA London has been outdone by two games since, The Italian Job and The Getaway - but these are both 3D adventures so I guess it doesn't really count.
The novelty of it, however, pushes it above GTA1 immensely for me because DMA's love of classic Brit crime capers is on full display here. The characters and setting are borderline Guy Ritchie and the whole Mod aesthetic the box art has is great. This was released during the waning years of Cool Britannia and by God I wish it would come back.
Plus; pulling off an expansion pack on the PS1? Very cool.
