The Getaway 3is one of those games that seem to have been in development forever, and it was believed that the London-based crime game, along withEight Days, had been abandoned by Sony so thatEyePetcould be worked on. However, Sony Computer Entertainment Europehas confirmedthat the games aren’t on the scrapheap, they’ve merely been put “on hold.”
“I would not say they were abandoned, just put aside. Much work had been done,” states SCEE’s Nicolas Doucet. “The studio just wanted to focus on its strengths,EyeToyandSingStar. Given the potential ofEyePet, priorities have been changed, but it is not a ‘death’ of other projects. Ultimately, this decision has benefited everyone.”
I’ll takeEyePetoverThe Getawayany day of the week. I mean, the firstGetawaywas alright in an awkward way, but did it feature a cute little furry guy who could draw rocket ships? No, didn’t think so. VETO!
