The Getaway. I was semi-hyped for it when it first came out, even with the mixed reviews. Went to buy it on release day in the states and found that the one store with games in my area I like to support had a mix up and never received their shipment. I held off getting it at the only other place in town (Wal of-evil-Mart) hoping the other store would come through. They never did, and with a healthy stack of unopened games waiting to be played I lost interest.
I finally got it as an xmas present a year plus later and found out what a great game it really is. Anyone who doesn\'t agree is a bleedin\' wanker
ViVi, I\'ve never played Maximo but I\'ve heard enough complaints about it and games I have played like JakII, The Getaway, CastleVainia LoI, to know almost every major \'problem\' people do find to complain about in a game well loved by others is usually a result of their own lack of skill or a general unwillingness to adapt to situations and conditions they at first find very awkward or difficult. I don\'t think you should try to force yourself to love Maximo, just realize there\'s a strong possibility you suck at the game more than the game itself sucks.
