About this product

Product Information

Originally conceived as a PlayStation title, The Getaway is a mission-based game set in London, England. Inspired by such films as The Long Good Friday and 1968's Get Carter, The Getaway has players slipping into the shoes of an ex-con named Mark Hammond. Hammond finds himself reluctantly drawn into a life of crime again after his wife is brutally murdered and his son abducted by the Bethnal Street Mob. Now Hammond must complete 12 missions on behalf of a once-powerful crime boss named Charlie Jolson, whose control over London's East End is as frail as his health. If Hammond fails to comply, he'll never see his son again. The result is a cinematic adventure encompassing car chases, gunfights, stealth, and a second playable character in the form of embittered Detective Frank Carter, whose 12-mission storyline runs concurrent with Hammond's. The 3D city captures an estimated 20 square miles of London, complete with authentic storefronts and landmarks. Players will also be able to walk into mission-related buildings such as restaurants, pubs, warehouses, and hotels during the course of the game. Actors were filmed using an advanced form of motion-capture technique, where up to five people could be recorded at once (along with their dialogue) inside actual sets. Each actor's face was also digitally scanned and mapped to his or her character model. The main adventure in The Getaway consists of 52 objectives spread across the 24 missions, with driving representing nearly half of the action. The game distinguishes itself from others in the genre by its lack of on-screen indicators for targeting enemies or viewing health. Instead players must rely on subtle visual cues rather than obvious meters to advance through the game. Once the main mode is complete, players can embark on a scenic tour of London to visit various landmarks and notable attractions without worrying about time or having to complete objectives.

The movie experience
The Getaway, A game that will take you on an adventure through the streets of london with the police right at your heels. Mark Hammond (you) has been accused of murdering his wife and is now a wanted criminal. However, the people who killed your wife have taken your son. Now you must get him back and take revenge on your wifes killers. This game for me was something else. I like it because it's not GTA at all. While controls are a bit rigid and hard to grasp, the game offers a rewarding experience. Driving around, you feel the importance of obeying the rules to stay out of trouble. Though thats not to say you can't rip it up in your favorite SAAB, BMW, or Honda. With the presentation of real cars, you also get a realistic driving feel.

While controls are a bit rigid and hard to grasp, the game offers a rewarding experience. Driving around, you feel the importance of obeying the rules to stay out of trouble. Though thats not to say you can't rip it up in your favorite SAAB, BMW, or Honda. With the presentation of real cars, you also get a realistic driving feel. Cars crash and burn very easily and even minor fender benders can effect overall performance and handling. As for being wanted, your ability to blend in will be compromised as the game continues on. more and more people will recognize you and call the police, Thus increasing the challenge. The difficulty in this game is excellent. Very challenging game to say the least. I must have spent days on one part of the stoy trying not to die. Upon completing the story of Mark Hammond, you get to play as Frank Carter. He is sort of like a cop who has a personal agenda. The sound effects in this game are up to par for the times along with the visuals. Overall, i really enjoyed this game. I would rate it 8 OUT OF 10.

The GTA of London
I would've given it 5 but GTA was already working on Vice City when this came out so they weren't the first and definitely won't be the last of this genre of game. The game itself is just about perfect, I'm not sure why the reviews weren't all that great for it. The physics of the cars make far more sense than driving in the GTA games. (For example: when a tire goes flat the car slows and veers to that side while driving, head-on collisions make the car slow and eventually catch fire after 1 too many collisions, the police have far superior AI than those in GTA--when holding a hostage they automatically put their hands up to try and get you to work with them don't turn your back to them though or you'll either get pistol whipped or shot since they have a ...

Basically, compared to GTA (3 or Vice City or even San Andreas) The Getaway beats them all hands down. My advice if you currently own one or all of the GTA series: trade them in for The Getaway, you won't be dissappointed.

wont regret purchasing!
i gave this game such a high rating due to the fact that its suspenseful. most games can get boring after a while but this is one of the very few games that didnt make me turn it off after the first few minutes of playing it. its challenging which makes it perfect for the people who love challenges. the only negative areas i have with this game would probably be how you cant skip the intro at the beginning of the game which does kinda take a while. besides that, the graphics are good and for the most part its realistic. overall, i highly recommend it to anyone who doesnt mind mature rated games. :)i gave this game such a high rating due to the fact that its suspenseful. most games can get boring after a while but this is one of the very few games that didnt make me turn it off after the first few minutes of playing it. its challenging which makes it perfect for the people who love challenges. the only negative areas i have with this game would probably be how you cant skip the intro at the beginning of the game which does kinda take a while. besides that, the graphics are good and for the most part its realistic. overall, i highly recommend it to anyone who doesnt mind mature rated games. :)

Great game
The game is great, just like I remember... The condition of the used 20 year old game I purchased is as I expected. Good. I haven't had any issues with it as of yet. Very happy, thank you.
