The Getaway

 

 

 

In this game you take the role of ex-mafia man in England.  Your old boss Charels Jolson wants you to work for him.  He uses force.  His minions kill your wife and take your son.  You try to get your son back because he forces you to do his jobs or he kills your son.  You do various jobs for him.  Some of these include busting out an old buddy from prison while being transported from prison.  Also another job is to drop off a murdered Triad gang member at China Town.   
Can you tell which is the real picture of Big Ben?  Designers spent tons of time to make the world of the Getaway photo realistic.   The real Big Ben is the bottom one.  This game will give you a realistic feel of London.
Overall this is a decent game.  The levels are somewhat repetitive.  You drive to the place where Johlson wants you to do the dirty work and just shoot everything up.  Then drive away to the safe place.  The police are suicidal and will just throw themselves at you.  Most shootouts are just you and a few enemies on the other side of a car or wall just shooting at each other.  There is also a very limited number of guns on the game limited to the 9mm pistol, the AR, the shotgun, and the MP5.  The other bad point in this game is you can heal anywhere.  Just stand next to a wall and wait. These aspects leave these games too easy.  I recommend this game if you're the kind of person who likes to play easy games.  I give The Getaway a 6 out of 10.
