To answer Dan's questions: -

1) So far I've come across three weapons

-The hand guns, which you can hold two of.
-The Shotgun
-And the AK47

2) The missions are really really good, they are realistic and quite enjoyable. You die after a few shots which does make it realistic and you can heal your health by standing near a wall and waiting for your wounds to heal, doesn't take long and its useful.

So far there is only one story and I think it's the only one, Mark Hammond's wife Suzie is shot in the beginning and his son is kidnapped. Charlie Jolson, who is the main bad guy, wants you to do his dirty work before he gives you his son back.

3) Unfortunately you can't buy anything seeing as you're not making any money out of what you do. You're trying to get your son back.

4) You can't buy weapons which is not good. For every mission you start, you're equiped with the hand gun and you're given the chance to kill people with shotguns and AK's, but they use them on you first and you have to kill them to get their weapon which puts you at an unfair disadvantage as you're fighting someone with AK's and shotguns with your measly handguns.

Hope that answers your questions.

I'd just like to say to anyone who doesn't like the game compared to GTA: VC, is what do you expect, this is Team Soho's first attempt and they did pretty well. I mean just look at GTA 1, if that was released now, and it was Rockstar's first attempt how would it look compared to The Getaway.

If you don't want to buy the game best thing to do is to rent it to get a taste. It really is a good game!!
