Infact the PS2 version has extras, that are geared more towards the PS2 user as they demand more and have higher skill level, not my words but the actual developers comments.
Then again I can imagine that it's a hard game for Xbox users because of their poorly designed controllers.

That's odd, it looks like a GTA/Driver/Mafia rip-off to me.
Mario Sunshine was a big disappointment but it's ten times better than Ratchet & Clank.
The stuff you come out with cracks me up...
As for the Getaway it is a class game that has superb sound yes it is dolby 5.1 (GC does not have) which when you go into the ship mission the sound echoes when you are talking. The cars handle differently depending on the vehicle and damage, with burst radiators and punctures. The narrative is very well executed with some famous actors being brought in the do the cockney slang.
This game represents a genuine attempt at something different and Sony must be congratulated on seeing the project through the Environments are spot on and the storyline and general Cinematic feel make this game the first of it's kind. Not some over done Mario sequel if Mario was a film series they would of killed it off years ago due to it's dwindling popularity and its repetiveness.

Who cares about perfect graphics? The game is bad.
