I own Getaway so I am biased. It is a fairly simple, easy game with a little practice. I still have a lot of fun playing it and I feel like a pro when getting super jackpots. Games with complicated rules and choppy gameplay don't do it for me. Maybe I will change my mind in the future and get tired of Getaway. I like T2 as well but like the theme of Getaway a little better. Never played Congo so no opinion on that. From my limited experience, Congo seems to be the harder game to find and more expensive.

Quoted from jk2171:

Guys who enjoy Getaway...does the theme music drive you nuts after awhile? I had to get rid of Creature for that very reason.

I was worried that the music and gameplay would get old after a while but that has not happened. I think the music is great and so are the callouts and other sounds. Video mode is the only thing that bores me now. There is not much to it but it's still one of the better video modes from the early 90's.

Another thing I like about Getaway is that it's easy for others to understand how to play - especially kids. My two 10 yr old boys have gotten pretty good and can get to redline mania.
