Default The getaway = CRAP - 01-16-2003, 05:18 AM

Can anyone explain to me why this game is getting good reviews? Its a piece of shit, the only thing mildly amusing is the amount of swearing in the cutscenes. The game seems to be bugged to hell and back, i was able to walk through the wall of a building and drop off the map and die.

The cars are also a joke, they loook ok but all seem to have the acceleration of an arthritic 70 year old granny on a zimmer frame. When you smack into other cars its not even a realistic looking crash, you basically just slow down a bit before chugging away again.

They supposodly spent a couple of years photographing london to make this game, musta spent about 5 seconds doing bug tests then if thats the case. oOo:
