Game is good, but not excellent. Graphics are great, controls are good after awhile of practise. Cars are from real life, and not that sh.t you see in GTA. I have both games and I like this one better. Yes, maybe there is not same amount of things to do, but great plot, athmospere, and voice acting rise this over average game. Dark, gritty experience and it has 4 different endings. Minigames give more age to this game, but multiplayer support would been good too. And now there is a map so you can see it, and it helps you in missions. Only minuses come from framerate, which drops very slow when action is at it's best, and it took about 12-14 hours to complete story. If you liked Getaway 1 or movies like "Snatch" or "Lock, Stock and Couple of Smoking Barrels" you like this.… Expand

Fantastic game, with a great script. Great Location and great vehicles!

It's almost the same game, but the controls are improved, and that was my only gripe against the original.

Best game ever so shut da hell up you huw say its rubish. [Ed: uh...]

The Getaway Black Monday combines fabulous gameplay with a brilliant story line. The fact is that with no help, it is easily completeable, which is a good thing!!! Too many of these games are far too long, leading them to be boring. Also, nice to have a pure english game for once. Driving on the "correct" side is excellent. This game is one of the best I've played...and yes, I've played on GTA!!!… Expand

I liked this game. Its different from grand theft auto and the story is well written. The cars are nice and have good damage model on them. Its also realistic that you can get in trouble for crashes and you are able to avoid these by ditching your car or by fleeing. Most people who aren't British may think this game is just for Brits but hey, I like it and I'm not from Britain.

I got for 10 bucks and think the game is pretty dam good! It's about the gaming experience and Black Monday provides a great one. Buy it if it's discounted you won't be sorry.

This game is brilliant. First of all, The Getaway 1 was freaking awesome. This Getaway is perfect, and I haven't had ANY camera problems AT ALL, so shut up. You people need to learn to ADAPT.

The greatest thing about this game is the story and the script. The dialogue is fantastic, especially if you are a fan of Guy Ritchie films. The controls however are a bit spotty, though once you get a hang of them you will overlook the fact that they could have been alot better because the game is just that much fun. I like using the blinkers to tell me where to go and don't understand why so many reviewers frown on this innovation. Is the game as good as GTA: San Andreas? Of course not. But it's like comparing apples and oranges as this game has its own flavor and that flavor is completely story-driven. You'll end up playing all night just to watch the next cut-scene as the script and animations are simply riveting. Don't believe any of the low ratings, you will not be sorry if you rent this game.… Expand

Great follow up to the first game.

Wikid game, those critics are cr*p at their job if they fail to see how cool thsi game is, it might not touch gta:san andreas but it gets my thumbs up.

It is an improvement from the first one. Some may see these games as a game trying to be GTA. It is similar to Grand Theft Auto,but is different in a lot of ways.One big way is that you don't know how much life or ammo you have left and the cops actually try to catch you. The way the cars drive in this game are smoother than the first game.The story is very different from any other game I have played. The other ending isn't that different and the story doesn't change if you decide to get the other ending.It is a fun game to play even after you beat it because there are other modes you can do as racing,Being a taxi driver,and of course free roam.… Expand
