    The bitter taste I had since the beginning of the game is still there.

    It’s not that it’s that bad of a game, it’s just that most of what’s under the hood on this one has been done before.

    Almost all of the much-touted style evaporates as soon as the introductory movie is over and we're met with stiff animation, blurry textures, popping geometry, a dated engine, underwhelming vehicle sound, a stale world, kryptonite light poles, bouncing parked cars, forgettable on-foot action and only passable vehicular dynamics.

    Driv3r's broken gameplay mechanics are just too significant to overlook. Ultimately, they turn this high-budget vehicular shooter into a mediocre "GTA" clone with two flat tires. [June 2005, p.69]

Sure, the graphics look outdated, but who cares? The only thing I would call awful about this game are the bugs, that I've encountered while playing it and that it's not optimized well enough and runs slow even on modern pc. It's just an average game, that tries to be gta, but fails. The previous parts are better, but here we are with the worst Driver game. Check it out to create your own opinion about it. I don't hate it, but I don't like it. Pickens undecided.… Full Review »
