I love this game! I am still very impressed that a game that came out in 2002 has such good graphics. Even now the graphics look pretty good! Also, The Getaway has one of the best stories I've ever seen in a game.
It is also a shame that The Getaway is extremely under-rated, this game deserves more respect! Few games have gripped me the way The Getaway did. It is a truly special gaming experience.
Ahh, this game. Was a long time ago i saw this. Thanks to Joe in Mafia II i figured it out because he said: "...we need a GETAWAY driver." In a mission. Thanks, Joe! LoL!
mark hammond , thats a name i stil havn forgot and i havnt heard never mind seen this game in years and i mean years lol.. and i was way younger thn , and 16 now lol.
definetly getaway... right now it seems like a bit of a sloppy game... but i remember having bought it as one of my first PS2 games back in the day & it rocked my world rlly.. i just loved the gameplay with cover systems, i think it also had melee combat aswell... for me it was the first game that had nailed it with gameplay AND story... game itself is't long... but you get to play the story with 2 different perspectives witch makes it complete...
this was first then black monday, although black monday was good it didnt feel like a film but more of a game. Great voice actors in here and i met some of them! Looks like they put more work in this too.
In my opinion the first getaways the best i mean they even made the characters on thje people who voiced them so if all the voice actors agreed they could make a film or another game remade into modern day graphics
Everyone say's "The getaway is better than gta 3, vice city, SA, LCS, VCS, gta4...bla, bla, bla". Everyone say's that beacuse they buy's this game and...WTF?! This is shit!
The Getaway 7/10
The Getaway BM 6/10
...I love this games but i see better...more better
i say that cause i enjoyed getaway more than i enjoyed gt4 & there the only sandbox game with a cover sytem & a good combat system & really all they added to gta4 was a cover sytem,a physics sytem & better graphics but i think san andreas is a better game than gta 4
I agree, san andreas is better than gta 4 coz you can do alot of things, but I like gta 4 for its realisme and good storyline, it really brings the chars to life
san andreas is not better than 4, maybe if u have a.d.d and u need to fly a plane, but ppl dont realize. where the fuck would planes fit into the gta 4 story, they will put planes back because im 100% positive they r gonna make a new vice city and san andreas
I said I like them both, pay attention next time and think before you comment, you ignorant fool. And what the hell do planes have anything to do with my topic?
Wow, this is one of the dullest free roaming games i've seen, the rest of the game looks kinda good, but every stret and house looks just the same as the next one.
MY top ten all time ps2 games 1. Max Payne 2. GTA san Andreas 3. The getaway 4. The Getaway black monday 5. pro evolution soccer 4 and 6 6. Resident Evil 4 7. God of War 1 8. God of war 2 9. Silent Hill 4 10. Tekken 5
why does charlie start this anyway does the lazy prick want someone to do his work becouse he dosent give a shit and tries to hide in his little room at that warehouse.
Yes but a lot of people are severly arrogant and think that everyone has the same skill as them. Man I wish I could get my hands on Black Monday, but hell, the first one is still really fucking fun.
this game was a million years ahead of its time a true pioneer
