Exclusive interview with game and film writer Katie Ellwood

If you know 'The Getaway' series, then you may already know who Katie Ellwood is. She worked as Sony Europe's narrative producer, as well as having a role on the original Getaway game and The Getaway: Black Monday. However, more recently, she has broken away from Sony to pursue a more independent career, now screenwriting for games and film as a director of two different business. She took some time out of her schedule to talk to Gamer's Guide to Life about writing for games, films and The Getaway series.

Yeah, it's a shame The Getaway was cancelled, as it looked like it was going to be a great game. I suppose it was just the fact that it'd cost too much to develop that made Sony drop it.

Not to mention, not many people valued the franchise when it was back on PS2.

To be honest, that's a big generalisation, and people often forget that the original PS2 Getaway wasn't actually that awful. The thing is, Black Monday was so bad, they forget that the original was actually okay. I see your point, but I do believe that people tend to be a little hard on the game.
