    Wow, The Getaway for GBA ...
    /sarcasm off

    I hope the developers realise what these low resolution images do to their games
  • BLACKSHEEP #2 8 years ago

    Well it's nice that SCEE learned from their mistake of showing renders as in-game shots for the first getaway. IMHO these screens are a marked improvement over the first game with better camera angles and a far more gritty look. I hope the driving sections can run smoother with the increased detail as it appears here.

    Maybe the HDD has some use too!

    I had to change my desktop resolution just to see one picture. I've never had to do that before. Guys, please sort it out. Or I'm coming to Brighton to break some eggs.

    Let's just hope that they make the guy run properly, and not looking like he's pappered himself quite substantially...

    "Let's mimic EA and reuse all the graphics and code to make a quick cash-in sequel", SCEE thought.

    BLACKSHEEP: In the first Getaway SCEE actually released several REAL photos of London as ingame footage - later they apologised for their 'mistake'.

    I bet SCE wish they'd reduced the shot size themselves now. Nice blurry textures there, some so blurry, they remind me of the poorer stuff in Shenmue like Ryo's flat clothing.

    Grumbles about the quality of shots aside, I have quite high hopes for this. The first one always felt to me that it had been a bit rushed, presumably 'cos they spent so much time doing the London map. I'm hoping the fact that thy won't have to do this again, means this will be much improved.

    @shArk - I agree that the lack of an HUD and music added a lot to this game, but I'm afraid I can not agree that the car physics were good. Neither realisitic nor arcadey just slugish IMO.

    at first i thought that the getaway was the best game ever until i saw the getaway black monday on the internet, if i saw the poeple that made the getaway/the getaway black monday and i'll pay them a million pounds.


    Er, just £40-ish will be fine, Jordan...
