Driver is a waste of time!

If I would have known that this was a 1999 vintage CD I never would have ordered it! The graphics and game play reflect the fact that it is outdated. Control of the vehicles seemed very difficult and unrealistic.

You ARE The ULTIMATE Wheelman On Atari's "Driver"!

If you LOVE driving games, Atari's "Driver" is a MUST BUY! "Driver" has LOTS of practice games, an engaging and engrossing storyline, mission-based gameplay, and a really COOL "Director Mode" to coordinate, save, and replay the most thrilling car chases. The replays are at different angles, you can choose from three different camera modes and all are really a great bonus!

You play the role of Tanner, a criminal underworld getaway driver (and undercover COP) for hire. This game holds over 40 different missions with increasing difficulty. You're required to complete a wide variety of tasks such as escaping police pursuit, making deliveries, and chasing insubordinate employees in the "Undercover" main mode of play. You are tested on driving skills, interviewed and put up in seedy motel rooms. You get messages on your hotel answering machine for different missions you must accomplish. Nice maps and two different indicators alert you to "DAMAGE" of your vehicle and "FELONY" alerts.

Gameplay takes place across four beautiful U.S. cities--Los Angeles, New York, San Francisco, and Miami. You can spin out, use a handbrake, complete backward 180s,360s, burnouts, power slide turning plus a whole LOT MORE! Lots of addictive minigames, from cop pursuits to metal-crunching collisions, are all included making Driver a fun, challenging and never the "same game twice" replay value!

Great and highly ADDICTIVE gaming with "Driver" from ATARI!

ATARI ROCKS and RULZ!

Happy Playing!

...Simply the best...

For the cheapest price you can imagine, you can buy this awesome game! If you go into the Driver directory, you can edit the game easily and it is fun to see what editing the files can do! I don't think any game could be better than this one, not only is it cheap, but you don't need the disk to play it; so feel free to lose it. The driving system in it works quite well, and the keyboard setup is fantastic!
This is my favorite game.

does it work for windows me (millenium edition)

The physics involved in this game are incredible!!! The burnouts, powerslides, and the weaving/bobbing of the old muscle cars makes this game one of the greatest driving games EVAR!!

It reminded me a lot of the movie Bullit, and if you're a fan of those type of movies, then you should try out this game.

I didn't even need a steering wheel/pedal set for this game. All I used was a standard keyboard.

Fun and entertaining- for a while.

This game was very fun. Exciting police chases, crashing police cars, and flying dirt and stop signs.You get two cities at first, San Fransisco and Miami. I was suprised by how big the cities are.
There are more bad things than good things, unfortunatly.
When you want to just drive around town, you can only use on car. The steering on it is like a wet sponge, and the top speed is only 88 mph.
Graphics are so-so, and there are no real weather effects, like rain, snow, etc etc.
If you must buy it, get it cheap. it's good, but there is better.

Good game? bad game? I don't know!

Hey, maybe this is a good game, but maybe if I got a chance to play it I would know. The game is completely messed up. If I want to just drive around in a city, the game freezes before I can even get out of the parking garage! I don't know if it's my computer, because, I bought it, then I returned it because it kept freezing, and got another one. Then, I get home and what do you know? It still freezes! Did anyone else experience this?

Super Game!

This is a great computer game! The cars are cool, and the citys that you can drive in are even better. The citys are Miami, San Francisco, Los Angelas, and New York. I still haven't beaten the undercover missions, which is where you can choose which mission to do, and then try to beat it. What's really fun is some of the car chases that you have with the police. There is even a place where you can see the chases in different angles! Not only can you do missions but there are some seperate little games like "Survival" and "Pursuit" which are all really fun. I think that parents that are looking for a computer game to buy for their kids this is the one! I recomend that the ages be between 12 years and up. The graphics aren't the best, but the game makes up for it. Also, in case some of you are wondering, this game does work for Windows XP. Hope this helped!

It's not a fun game if you don't have the cheat codes

Too bad I couldn't get to the first mission because the parking lot was so dark I couldn't see where I was going. So I just raced around and entered cheat codes to outrace the police. I was dissappointed also about the game and how much it was publicized to be the best. I found that more companies make demo software to make the game look better than it really is. I hope I can write a better review some day stating that a game is really great.

Check the non-Jewel Case version for my review

I actually wrote my review for the non-Jewel Case version of the game without realizing it (I bought the Jewel Case version). So check it out there. I would like to add that I am driving with a racing wheel (Logitech MOMO is awesome) and I would not be playing this game otherwise. The game is awesome!!!
