The Getaway 3 set in Amsterdam
-
Jul 25, 2006 01:04
I' ve been abroad for a while now (traveling aussie en asia), so this is the first time I logged on since the last of april. Now that I' m back in Thailand, I got really curious about the latest news on ps3 so I checked kikizo of course. Watching the E3 trailer on the Getaway, I noticed straight away that this looks a hell of a lot like Amsterdam (holland). Since I am from Holland I also noticed the yellow sign on the right with " cafe slachterij" written on it, wich is Dutch for " Butcher Bar" . Since there isn' t any bar with that name that I know of, and google didn' t find any too, I guess this is an imaginary cafe. This could also mean that the creators of the game got rid of their " 1 on 1 real life copy of a city" like they did in the prequels. Having seen the piccadilly trailers, one could also think that the game will be located in both London AND Amsterdam this time, since they already had the geographical and photographical data of the first city. This last part is all speculative of course, except for the amsterdam part, which I' m pretty certain of. I' ll probably won' t be the only one who' ll be happy to see the f***** traffic ' ll be on the wright side of the damn road for once (even though I' m pretty much used to driving on the left side of the road, now that I' ve been in Thailand and Australia. (not that it really matters in those driving games, but still) Now excuse me if this was already out in the open, but I couldn' t find any thread on the getaway here on kikizo, so I figured this is " news" you' d want to know if you didn' t already (I would). I anyone would want to give me any updates about this kind of games... I' d be happy to! use this thread to do so or give me some links for anything interesting. for now, greetz from Thailand (come here for on holidays for cheap booze, cheap (beautiful) girls and cheap accommodation! take my advise!!!
