Question about London in "The Getaway"
Just how complete is their supposed London in the game?
I used to live in Uxbridge, and it'd be nifty to see if I could drive by my house!

According to the developers, it was pretty much spot on mapping. I had just returned from a vacation in London, and recognized a lot of the areas/buildings in the game. I swear I ate in one restaurant you drive by. 20 square miles was mapped.

I've read that The Getaway 2 will keep the perfectly rendered city and fix most of the gameplay problems with the original. Could be pretty cool.
BTW, I remember when you posted that story last year, illenium and it's still funny!
