Good Points: - Good voice work- Plays well- Nice look of London- Fun story- Good mini games
Bad Points: - It does look dull- Cars in the game are not that good, quite a lot of them are rather slow
General comments: Gangs of London part of The Getaway series and im shocked with this game because its actually a great game. The other Getaway games i never liked but i love the way the story has been set up on this. Now reading other peoples reviews to you know dont listen to them if you like the look of the game buy it or at least try it.Gangs of London features 6 gangs only 5 are playable theres the Cockney Morris Kane Firm which is the longest-established of the London Gangs. There is the Jamaican EC2 Crew which are pretty cool, Talwar Brothers from Pakistan newcomers to the London scene, Zakharov Organization a Russian gang, Water Dragon Triad the Chinese gang. The last gang which is unplayable is Andy Steel's gang. Each gang your going to have to kill each one of them and cause mayhem on the city of London. Each gang has the same story but the only different things are the boss your gang will talk in there own voice, the cut scenes are a little different. Now the cut scenes are just comic book graphics kind of what Driver 76 has used but it gives the game a great effect.Theres a lot of extra content in the game such as Free-Roaming where you can Free Drive. Be a London Tourist - and take pictures of the landmarks only thing is you cant drive you can only get a taxi or bus which is slow to get around in.Cause Havoc - this mode is causes as much havoc as you possibly can, Speed Trap which is kind of like speed the movie keep your speed up or if you stop or slow down the car will go up in flames.Riot Control - heres your chance to play as the police and defeat or arrest rioters. Getaway - sees you going against the police here you will have to out-drive them and survive until the time runs out.Four Weeks Later - The dead or rising terrorizing London now your going to have to kill each zombie before the time runs out.The Knowledge - here you play as a London Taxi your going to have to know your way round to play this one. Gang Battle use strategy and good sense. this one isn't a very good game as to the others.Next theres the Pub Darts now everyone should know this game.Skittles kind of like bowling but without the bg bowling. Best pub game on here I've played this one the most.UK 8-Ball Pool and US 8-Ball PoolLast game is the Ye Olde Arcade The game is worth buying other people have hated the game i don't see why they thing it is so bad this is a great game and worth the money to. Good graphics game play is very good some major problems with this at all. I am from England and i love the game. It doesn't matter where your from you still may like it.
