Sam Houser.

Sam Houser (born 1971) is a British video game producer and developer, and the older brother of Dan Houser with whom he founded the Rockstar Games company.

Sam Houser and his brother are known to be two of the driving forces behind the Grand Theft Auto franchise of sandbox-crime video games. Sam is responsible for taking GTA into the 3D-environment era, creating realistic cities under fully 3D-engines and turning the series into huge profits during video gaming's sixth-generation era.

Along with his brother, Sam is currently working on Agent, a PS3 exclusive stealth-action game, at the Rockstar North studio. The duo are also developing Grand Theft Auto V.

Houser served as a producer for every Grand Theft Auto game since 2001's GTA III, as well as producing non-GTA titles such as Red Dead Redemption and Max Payne 3; both games received critical acclaim.
