Нет, таких слов в моём лексиконе, „не мой уровень", не было никогда в жизни. Мне, прям, сейчас аж стыдно. Дело в том, что это была странная такая, полуаферистическая вещь. Я очень рад, что эта игра собрала за месяц полмиллиарда долларов — это идёт разговор о GTA IV. То есть это самая продаваемая игра в мире. И они использовали мой образ из картины Джона Мура под названием „В тылу врага". Вот, им понравилось такое. Я очень старался, собирал по кусочкам этот бомжеватый вид.
