Escapism has never been so, well... escapist
I've now found this wonderful feature and walkthrough online, written by someone who clearly loves the game and I'm going to study it carefully:

... in it he describes how (for both PS2 and PC) you can
switch to first-person view! Boy, this is going to be
so much fun now! The clunky third-person controls really spoiled things the first time around. I've already tried it out and it works.
@ Dowly...I also have 'The Great Escape' (I had a thread about that on here somewhere too). A much more visceral game... the shouts of the pursuing Germans are harrowing, plus you have guns, knives and blood. I've never heard of 'Escape from Colditz'... I wonder whether that ever found its way onto PC?
