About two-and-a-half years after launch, the spacecraft experienced a major malfunction that sent it into an uncontrolled spin and severed communications with Earth. "Congratulations to the NASA and ESA teams on an amazing thirty years working together." Since launch, it has provided an almost unbroken record of solar activity spanning nearly three full 11-year solar cycles. From a position 1.5 million km away from Earth, located between our planet and the Sun, SOHO has an uninterrupted view of the solar surface.
A spin-off, the game's story follows five different gangs in London, with different ethnicities and outfits, as they battle for control of the city. The game's story is based on such films as The Long Good Friday and Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. In a retrospective article from 2014, Den of Geek made the game number 23 in their top 50 underappreciated PlayStation 2 games list. Next Generation ranked it as the 53rd highest-selling game launched for the PlayStation 2, Xbox, or GameCube between January 2000 and July 2006 in that country.
SOHO science highlights
- This allows us to see coronal mass ejections — large eruptions of solar material and magnetic fields — as they set off from the Sun, providing up to three days warning of potentially disruptive incoming space weather reaching Earth.
- SOHO discovered its 5000th comet in March 2024, making it the most prolific comet-discoverer in history.
- A spin-off, Gangs of London, was released in 2006; this spawned the 2020 television adaptation of the same name and a 2022 graphic novel.
- "Congratulations to the NASA and ESA teams on an amazing thirty years working together."
"SOHO has overcome nail-biting challenges to become one of the longest-operating space missions of all time." The Cincinnati Enquirer gave the game a score of three-and-a-half stars out of five, saying that "the biggest hindrance in The Getaway involves its user interface – or lack thereof – as the development team attempted to make the game look and play out like a movie". The original development staff had little to no experience in the video game industry, with most of them being recent college graduates. They started out with developing NBA ShootOut, the first entry of the NBA ShootOut series, which released in 1996. For example, the ESA-led Solar Orbiter mission is imaging the solar poles from higher latitude and flying much closer to the Sun, with many of its instruments being successors of SOHO's.

The hype surrounding the project began in earnest just before E3 2000, when a series of screenshots were published online. Unlike Rockstar Games's Grand Theft Auto tampa cycling III, it was not an acceptable option for the Team Soho developers to break the city up into separate regions and impose a loading time delay when crossing between areas. The title was prototyped and playable missions were made; several screenshots appeared in the Official U.S. PlayStation Magazine. After Porsche Challenge, director Brendan McNamara felt that a free-roaming vehicle game was an interesting concept worth exploring. The Getaway's development originated at Sony Computer Entertainment Europe on the PlayStation, off the back of Porsche Challenge.

Gangs of London is the third game in the series and was developed for the PlayStation Portable in 2006. In 2020, Push Square included the game and its sequel in a list of games they would like to see released on the PlayStation 4. The Getaway received "average" reviews according to video game review aggregator Metacritic. By then, the project had ballooned, exceeding its development budget many times over. Once Mark Hammond's missions are completed, free-roaming is unlocked for his character, which allows the player to roam around the City of London and Central London without mission objectives or time limits.

This breakthrough allowed it to continue gathering data that would go on to reshape the field of solar science. For three months, an international team worked continuously to find the spacecraft and bring it back to life. "It is testament to the ingenuity of our engineers, operators and scientists, and to international collaboration, that this mission has exceeded all expectations," says Prof. Carole Mundell, ESA Director of Science.
Richard Bunn, a former developer, had noted the game was cancelled shortly after Phil Harrison was replaced by Shuhei Yoshida as president of SCE Worldwide Studios. Information regarding The Getaway 3 was released on 7 March 2008 by screenplay writer Katie Ellwood, who affirmed the action title was still in the works. A technical demo featuring Piccadilly Circus was demonstrated in May 2005 at E3, but this was not directly from the game. The Getaway 3 was to be the fourth installment of Sony's The Getaway series for the PlayStation 3 console and the third main installment in the franchise.
The Getaway (video game)
The Getaway is an open world action-adventure game played from third-person view in which the player controls the two lead characters as they carry out their missions for game progression. The game was planned to be released alongside the launch of the PlayStation 2 in 2000, but was delayed by over two years due to the difficulty of recreating large areas of London in high resolution. The Getaway is an action-adventure video game developed by Team Soho and published by Sony Computer Entertainment for the PlayStation 2. Team Soho was a British video game developer based in Soho, London and a subsidiary of Sony Computer Entertainment. This United Kingdom video game corporation or company article is a stub.

The game's soundtrack is complemented by a title song and cutscene soundtrack, performed by the London Philharmonic Orchestra. Worldwide and particularly in the United States, the game received mixed reviews and sales. When the game was launched in December 2002 it was a huge seller across Europe, especially in the United Kingdom. As a result of this, the axe was to fall on two of its studios, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe Manchester and Sony Computer Entertainment Europe Leeds.
This allows us to see coronal mass ejections – large eruptions of solar material and magnetic fields – as they set off from the Sun, providing up to three days warning of potentially disruptive incoming space weather reaching Earth. This matches the timeline of the Sun’s magnetic cycle, explaining how sunspots – regions where intense magnetic fields break through the Sun’s surface – emerge progressively closer to the equator over the solar cycle. Then, in November & December 1998, the spacecraft’s stabilising gyroscopes failed and a new race to save the mission began. On 2 December 1995 the ESA/NASA Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) blasted into space – on what was supposed to be a two-year mission. For example, the ESA-led Solar Orbiter mission is imaging the solar poles from higher latitude and flying much closer to the Sun, with many of its instruments being successors of SOHO's. This allows us to see coronal mass ejections — large eruptions of solar material and magnetic fields — as they set off from the Sun, providing up to three days warning of potentially disruptive incoming space weather reaching Earth.
