    While not perfect its certainly fun and worth a play if you liked the driver series of game you will almost certainly like this. This is what driver should have started to become. A movie tie in thats actually worth buying.

    Although the storyline isn't the greatest ever and the graphics aren't top notch, this game delivers on the fun department. This game is way more fun then GTA, the whole game is great, and the gameplay feels very innovative. If you can get it for a low price, buy it.

    Let's be real about this game. It has flaws. The graphics aren't the greatest. There are bugs. But on the other hand, I am 12 hours into the game and it is a blast and I can't remember the last time I laughed this hard and enjoyed a game as much as this. Definitely worth buying. If you were to do every mission, it would easily take 40 hours to complete. Oh, and the story is Let's be real about this game. It has flaws. The graphics aren't the greatest. There are bugs.

    This game is a game. It will question your intellectual social life, and today's society in general. It's a surprisingly emotional experience on subjects that is way, way deeper and focused than Bioshock Infinite (and that one is serious, by the way).

    Honestly though, this is just a fun as **** game that has the most hilarious and stupid story and gameplay, that is nothing short of a fun experience. It is a fun experience because of it's faults. I don't know if it was intentional within the game design or not, but either way it is fun.    … Expand

    It was a worthwhile dig, but it just isn't a patch on genre leaders. [May 2009, p.64]

    Its arcadey addictiveness and cinematic style successfully lands it in a sweet spot right between those two genres, taking players for a ride that's totally on par with the summer movie excitement it emulates.

    Wheelman has enough explosive thrills that you’ll be yelling and laughing the whole time.
