BAFTA, meanwhile, has confirmed its commitment to the videogames sector - which it has now elevated to equal importance with the Film and Television sectors

Damn right it's just as important. British video game exports are far more successful than British film and TV exports. How many British films and TV shows are popular in the US? Now think how many British games are hugely popular in the US? Absolutely loads.

Here is a list of (mainly) UK based games companies. I am sure you can spot a few specific companies from there that have worked on popular titles.
