If you've got 15 minutes to spare, this is definitely worth a watch.

GameTheory, who pride themselves on good science and hard data, have gone out and investigated one of the burning questions of our age - are the cops in GTA V actually racist?

It's been a sore point for Rockstar Games for some time, especially since they had to publicly address the fact that the AI for the police officers in the game doesn't prejudice against Franklin, the black character in the game.

As this video pretty much demonstrates, it seems there is some truth in that assertion. The data, it would appear, is pretty conclusive but it makes an interesting point about the game's mechanics and the randomisation of them as well.

As we said, it's an interesting watch and a TL;DR doesn't really suffice.

Take a look.
