After playing almost every waking hour since I got it, I've finally completed The Getaway (pics here) and unlocked the 'Free Roaming' mode. This is where you get to drive whatever you can find wherever you like, untimed and "mostly" unaccosted by police and bad guys.What's the objective? There is no set objective... so really, it's whatever the hell you want it to be.
How fast can you drive across London? How many cars can you wipe out before your own gives up the ghost? How may innocent bystanders can you walk up to, grab around the throat and break their necks right in front of a police officer before you get caught? How many cop cars can you cut up, shoot up the occupants and then steal?
The sky's the limit, with very few restrictions.
My fave moments so far have been screaming down Oxford Street on a go-kart (on the wrong side of the road) till its engine blew up and the whole thing caught fire... then stealing another car to get back to where I stole the go-kart, and stealing the Lotus Exige that's kept there (along with a TVR and Nissan Skyline GTR). I then took the Lotus to Bukingham Palace, drove it up onto that monument thing out front, down the steps on the other side at full speed, through the gates into St James's Park (?) flat out through the avenue between the trees, took off on the slope up to the gates and flew through the air right across the road smashing into the window of Coffee Republic on the other side.
So... think I'd make a good London cabbie?
Umm.... I just found something new.
There's a TANK!!!
Oh the carnage ;-)
