Bigger cities better cars and guns what else can ask for. I have been waiting along time for this game and it is sure to be the best Driver yet. There is going to be a good story line I heard and awesome graghics. I am sure this game is not going to be a dissapointment. There are going to be more levels and longer missions. I hope there is 2 player were u can get out of the car and put it in different camera angles. But like I said this game is awesome and i dont thing i am going to be dissapointed in this game.

Driver 3 looks incredible. This time around you can actually use guns. You can also enter buildings. The first Driver rocked for PC. But Driver 2 sucked. I don't think this game might have what it takes to topple crime game giants like the GTA series.
awesome game buy it

this game will be the best to come for this genre, it is amazing, you can no longer get across a city in 2 minutes, its gonna take some time. this also combines a shooting type game with an RPG type game. it is redifining the word graphics with amazing cars, cities, and character models. this is a must have
a great game

I was one of the many people who eagerly awaited Driv3r's release. I have been playing this game most of the day, and have been completely unimpressed by the game altogether. In some ways, i enjoy the game. The look of Miami is impressive and expansive and the vehicles are fun, interesting and realistically tough to drive. Unfortunately, that is about all there is to say on the positive side. The graphics and movements of the characters are awful and the gameplay is painfully slow. If you fail a mission, prepare for extended re-viewed cutscenes and immediate replay over and over. As i enjoy the "realism" of the game and the hyped ability to enter houses, buildings and the like, the negatives far outweigh the positives. I don't know how to best describe it, but this game far from met any expectations i have had. The previews were cool and so are the ones for GTA, but this one definetly doesnt have the gusto. Rent it if you really wanna give it a try, but dont waste your well-earned cash my friends, this one's a stinker.

The game is very good. The game is not as bad as other people say. The on foot is okay not bad the driving is the strong point of the game. The fmv's are realy good feels like your in a movie. so if you want to buy it buy it it's worth your money.

From my point of view, Driv3r is an exceptional game. It offers sleek graphics, and groundbreaking gameplay. I found this game to be very entertaining but be warned it is addictive. I reccomend this game to any one who likes a great combonation of driving and crime.

Way back in the olden days I played a game called Driver for PC (what a rush), car physics were funky and cool, Miami at night was moody and mysterious and the cop chases... well for get about it, it was great! And all that painful pop-up? Come on it was 1998 after-all. Well here we are, it's 2004, Driv3r has been loooong awaited by those of us who adored the first offering from Reflections and now that we have it, all I can say is... "what the h#ll?!" I'll only review this on the graphics merits, so if you like the game play and can numb yourself to the absolutely pathetic textures look away now. Talk about pop-up, "holy.. where did that car come from Batman", the AI vehicles (not to mention buildings trees, power poles and peds) appear out of nowhere not more than a block away at times, they don't fade in, they just appear like some crazy magic trick. Textures tear and flicker and quite frequently disappear all together just to reappear again. Now mind you the lighting effects are beautiful (note Miami at dusk bathed in that golden tropical glow), but there is absolutely very little draw distance and the unbelievable amount of graphics glitches that are found at ever turn are utterly disappointing and inexcusable, they may have passed muster back in the day but not at a time when Project Gothem 2 and Grand Tourismo rule the roads. I went back and ran PG2 and recounted Wreckless last night just to make sure I wasn't being too hard on poor old Driv3r but I came away being even harder on it. Great video games start with (can you imagine) great graphics! Call me a graphics geek but if a title can't draw me in visually then the journey for me and that title will be a short one. How the creative teams at Reflections and finally Microsoft let this pass to distribution with so many bugs to work out is beyond me, Xbox has so much riding on the quality of the games to sell itself that allowing such a shoddy example of workmanship find a place on store shelves is inexcusable. On the upside however Driv3rs' opening cut scene is the most cinematic I've ever seen, and frankly stunning! The levels (cities) are huge and exacting in their detail but the clipping and over-all poor graphics execution relegates what could have easily been one heck of a game to the "should-a, could-a, would-a" file. Simply put... I was expecting so much more and got far less than I could have ever imagined from Driv3r and how sad.
