Despite having slightly more realistic graphics with a layout of an existing city and using existing cars, The Getaway just wasn't anywhere near as fun as the PS2 GTAs. It was too easy to die, and cars handled weirdly. Plus it was incredibly linear. There wasn't a HUD. And just what WAS it with pedestrians jumping into the road infront of you, so you ended up getting the police all over your arse?
I did enjoy the atmosphere and seeing two parts of the same story, though.
