  PlayStation 2: The Getaway Preview at Ps2Fantasy.com
The Getaway is an action/adventure game that puts the player into the world of organised crime in modern London, based on a mission structure very similar to the one of Grand Theft Auto 3.
While The Getaway seems to offer the same freedom of GTA 3, the game is based on a much stronger hard-boiled novel, divided into two different but interwoven story threads - and all is narrated with a unique cinematographic style.
The Getaway is clearly a game created with art; we just hope that Team Soho will be able to put the pieces of this enormous game together in the best possible way.

 The Getaway Man by Andrew Vachss: The Zero 5.0laf - The Official Website of Andrew Vachss
The Getaway Man is taut and understated, inexorable in its deepening moral ambiguity.
Eddie, the getaway man is a brilliant achievement, simple but not stupid, as steady on the wheel as Vachss' prose style, Eddie remains an honorable innocent in a world of slowly revealed depravity."
That's the way it feels in The Getaway Man, the vehicle for Andrew Vachss' mesmerizing character study of a naive young career criminal by the name of Eddie.

 The Getaway PS2 Review
Getaway's star, for instance, should be someone who's dangerously clever (Charlie Croker, Gal Dove, Freddie Mays, The Krays), but instead we're given an idiot in Mark Hammond, a gangster-gone-straight who manages to accidentally frame himself for murder while his son is kidnapped.
The boy is delivered into the hands of Charlie Jolson, a tough-as-nails crime boss who uses the son's life to twist the father into becoming a suicide puppet.
So The Getaway is more routine than special, as action games go it's can be a fun ride once you get used to its quirks.

 Gamasutra - Features - "Talking Heads: Facial Animation in The Getaway" [04.18.01]
The Getaway takes place in possibly the largest environment ever seen in a video game; we have painstakingly re-created over 50 square kilometers of the heart of London in blistering photorealistic detail.
So, with a huge project such as The Getaway in development and unable to find enough talented people, the decision was made to create Talking Heads, a system that would severely cut down on the number of man-hours spent on tedious lip-synching.
The first decision to be made was whether to use a typical blend-shape animation process or to use a skeleton-based system.

 GameSpy.com - Review
Obvious comparisons to Rockstar's legendary Grand Theft Auto series will be drawn, but The Getaway tries to be more of an interactive movie rather than a free-form action title.
The Getaway is not for the faint of heart; slapped with a Mature ESRB rating, it features a foul-mouthed script carried out by British actors who really manage to capture the seedy gangster vibe of the aforementioned films.
The Getaway is noteworthy in a few key areas.

 The Getaway: Gangs of London Preview
Currently in development at SCEE London, The Getaway: Gangs of London is an all-new title in the gritty series, which promises to take the setting and criminal theme of the series and offer it in a whole new handheld gang based experience.
Moves within the game are all made invisible until the end of a turn, as such lending a sense of "bluffing" to the game as you attempt to scheme your way to the top.
The Getaway: Gangs of London is scheduled for release later in the year; TVG will have further information soon.

The Getaway does succeed in straddling both entertainment mediums, but this thriller for mature players is as flawed as it is fun.
The first half of The Getaway is played more or less in a car, chasing through more than 40 square kilometers of downtown London.
If you can live with these annoyances, The Getaway is an intriguing, ambitious game that can be a lot of fun at times.

 The Getaway (Greg S.) Electronic Gaming Monthly - Find Articles
If you're planning to pick up The Getaway, you need to understand one thing: This isn't meant to be a Grand Theft Auto clone.
The Getaway is very purposefully linear, since it's supposed to play like an interactive movie.
Control-wise, The Getaway is decent, though the main characters move a bit slowly for my tastes, and the game is too unforgiving if you take a wrong turn or get into a situation where you're grossly outnumbered.

 The Getaway Review - PlayStation 2
The Getaway is the story of flmail, kidnapping, and double-crossing amongst various criminal organizations in the picturesque city of London.
The Getaway is rated M for Mature for heaps of violence, drug references, wash-your-mouth-out-with-soap language, and some sexual content.
The Getaway is great at seamlessly combining vehicular action and third-person action, but each component has weaknesses, particularly the shaky third-person action.

The Getaway maintains the same deliberate, neo-noir pace that made the first film taut, creating a claustrophobic atmosphere in the wide-open, desolate Southwestern landscapes.
(the Getaway is Kim's best along with L.A Confidential and it's Alec's best along with the Hunt for Red October) On whole, I like it better than the original because of its harsh realism, its brilliant cast, which also includes James Woods and Micheal Madsen, and really because Kim is sooo Good looking.
Bad move I won't reveal, but generally speaking, The Getaway moves at a good clip, features two attractive women, a likeable cast, even if they are all crooks...

 The Getaway 2 Electronic Gaming Monthly - Find Articles
Oh, and sending out early screens of a sparkling Audi TT in an alleyway (scenes so amazing they could never hope to be re-created in a moving game) didn’t help, either.
With the announcement of The Getaway 2—due this fall for PS2—Sony and Team Soho are promising a sequel that rights the wrongs of the previous game while avoiding a surplus of hype and trumped-up imagery.
The solution used in the first The Getaway was effective and elegant in many ways; we allowed the player to recover when he wanted, even in a gunfight, if he found a safe spot.

One of their efforts together, sadly, was not to be: The Getaway (1972), for which Fielding's score was replaced by an equally fine yet different one by Quincy Jones.
For years Fielding's score was known only by reputation; associate producer Gordon Dawson said it was "like a man in a green suit walking in a forest." Portions were included on a private Jerry Fielding compilation in 1992; finally, this CD features the premiere authorized release of the complete score in excellent stereo sound.
The Getaway starred Steve McQueen and Ali Macgraw as a husband-and-wife criminal team attempting to save not only their lives and their loot but their marriage.
