PAL = better image quality (thats evident when you watch a UK program against a US one - a dvd ripping obsessed friend of mine would blame it on "interlacing" or somthing) but also a diminished 50hz screen refresh rate. I've never seen a NTSC screen next to a PAL one admitadly, but 50hz is definatly noticably "fluttery" ... ouchies oh and its great to hear that somthing is comming out in the UK first

Just played the Demo of it. And I have to say, after playing I have totally changed my opinion about the game. I would say some Camera Angles are frustrating, but man the game is awesome. Its great, I think I am going to buy this game when it comes out here. Pretty sure now.
Car handling isn't that great, but the storyline and the Voice Overs are top notch. And man the "F***" word is used soo many freaking time in the cutscenes, and not only that, but during the gameplay, while shooting the guys, they swear alot and "F" word comes every 30 seconds or something...damn! This game sure is 17+..... I really like the idea of "Jump Out Shoot", Metal Gear Style put into this game, and take hostages as a shield and shoot them in the head when your done with them. The Graphics are pretty amazing too. Just the car handling and character movement is quite funny. I know thats like the main thing, still..........till now it seems like a great game. I think I'll buy it. Edit: By the way, I finished the Demo in 15 minutes, man that was some SHORT TINY DEMO.

Makg, I thought you said you worked at best buy. Correct me if im wrong, but its already out now and only 39.99. I bought it just the other day. It's a good game. Horrible Car A.I. frustrating angles, but fear not. Really Good Game!!! If you can get over these "minor" infractions, you should play this game. I am very happy w/ my purchase, and can't wait to get into it deeper.
I can't do as much gaming as I used to due to the fact that i have a full time job. 60 hours a WEEK!!! But I bring home over 400 dollars a week I just bought a gamecube, xbox, THe Sims, The Getaway, Animal Crossing, Halo, and am purhasing Everquest online adventures... Just in case anyone cares

Damn the getaway is hard, im still stuck on the second mission, Its so much different that Vice City dont you guys think, but its so much better too. Still, a radio and having a free roam of the city from the start of the missions would have been nice. Maybe a map in the pause menu (London is so hard to get around lol, I cant figure out where I am)
And real cars, Brilliant. |

Saw it over at a friends last night, and i think the game will be really fun. Once i get done with Red Faction 2 and check around some on a good deal, i will sincerely give it a chance to impress me some...

It#s probably the most realistic game I've played, but then again, realism has its flaws (like not being able to live after a car hits you etc. )
But it seriously is worth at least renting, but I would recommend you buy it. |

Back to the topic... Yeah Getaway is pretty difficult, but worth the $$. Especially w/ the 39.99 rather than the normal. Oh and DMC2 comes out in US thursday Looks like I'll have to start saving for my own place next week

I am getting this game this coming firiday, alongside Devil May Cry 2, YEAH!!!
And by the way I like the idea of getting hurt, if you hit your car, I mean common thats how it should be eh...... I loved and I mean simply loved the DEMO, and I will love this game too, its just that I bought Vice City a week ago, and playing that alot, still I am pretty sure I'll play The Getaway as much too. But when I'll have Devil May Cry 2 as well, and I still have to do so much in Splinter Cell and Shenmue II and I havn't reached that far in Metroid Prime either... AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH

Sundays are the only day i have off, so That is my day... Within a year though, i may be able to play games all day I am top on the list to manage my own division of a Game Crazy store, which is an affiliate of Hollywood Video. They have asked me to manage when they open one around here. My Regional manager met w/ me and said "Now, I m not sure about how you will feel about this, but you will have to play games at work. We need someone who knows what theyre talking about." All i could do was laugh!
