The Getaway is a driving/shooting video game series, developed in the United Kingdom by London-based Sony Computer Entertainment Europe (SCEE) subsidiary, Team SOHO, and released in December 2002. Both the original game and its sequel are set in London and take their cues from British gangster movies such as Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels.
The Getaway follows Mark Hammond (played by Don Kembry), a former member of the Soho-based "Collins Gang" who, after five years in prison, decides to quit the gangster scene and settle down with his wife, Susie and their son, Alex. One day, Hammond awakes to find his wife murdered and son kidnapped by a large rival syndicate known as the "Bethnal Green Mob". Rushing to his family's aid, he picks up the murder weapon and witnesses his son being forcefully dragged into a nearby car.

Secrets
Drive an Armored Tank! Get to St. James' Park. In the Army barracks, you should find a tank that you can steal and cause havoc with.
***Note: In some versions of the game, you will receive a ''Game Over'' if you destroy more than 3 vehicles, this is due to the current global climate with terrorism.
Golf Buggy When wandering around Hyde Park in Free Roam mode, you should stumble across a discarded golf-cart. About as comical as The Getaway gets, but don't expect to get anywhere in a hurry.
