    The game is not that bad as people make it out to be. Sure, the graphics look outdated, but who cares?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 withThe game is not that bad as people make it out to be.

    Although crappy graphics, choppy gameplay and bugs abound, it si still fun as the car handle great with spectacular crashes not worth $50 tho, maybe $30.

    This isin't the best game, but it has something inside that keeps you playing this game until it's over. Game world are beautifull and venchicles are very great. The best two things are Cinematics and Soundtrack. I bought this game music CD and it was awesome. Play and simply enjoy it. This game isn't perfect but has a spirit.

    A very ambitious game, tarnished by a greedy publisher. Watch Larry Bundy's Driv3r Gate video, to be in the know on that. Otherwise, of the first three Driver games, this one's the most enjoyable for me. Be a cop, be a criminal, take part in car chases and shoot things. It has its fair share of bugs, but it's still playable.

    Very stiff and repetitive gameplay. Some sections also had extraordinary difficulty level, but I did complete it in full.

    I used a controller and i assigned almost all possible combinations but i had to use the keyboard for driving the crane or getting the map but it was still playable, but the BIGGEST ISSUE is the character's control (walking) when using the controller the camera is too slow to rotate it takes long time to aim or turn around and it is too sensitive with mouse even in low sensitivity levelI used a controller and i assigned almost all possible combinations but i had to use the keyboard for driving the crane or getting the map but it was still playable, but the BIGGEST ISSUE is the character's control (walking) when using the controller the camera is too slow to rotate it takes long time to aim or turn around and it is too sensitive with mouse even in low sensitivity level and this was a problem in the last mission when you have to shoot dozens of guys i had to use both controller and mouse also the game is GLITCHY and the sport bikes engine sound is horrible, the driving is good and the challenging driving missions too it is still a driver but not like the first two titles… Expand

    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.

    This game's no fun to play at all. And it's frustrating, too, in a bad way. It's as simple as that.

    The driving physics are pulled from "Carmageddon 2," the on-foot control is pulled from "Ultima Underworld," the driving was pulled from the Sega Genesis version of "OutRun." There is a reason why all the games I’ve listed are five, ten, fifteen years old. . .because Driv3r plays like a game from a past generation.
