    Have been a fan of Driver games since PS1 era and satisfied with the new games ala GTA mix with Driver style driving. Driver games have always been about driving and feeling your car. This game gives you the feel with addition to explorer New Your on foot as extra.

    This game wants to be vice city with a bigger lean towards driving. but the driving physics is just so-so. Cars crash and damage to easily and once a car flips, it is toast. Gameplay wise it is nothing new. If you just gotta have a fair gta clone to hold you over til GTA4 then play Vice City Stories. This one is just ok and that just isn't good enough.

    Control's are spot on, 70's music is sweet and the game is fun to play. Its like the original driver, but finely tuned. Load times are lacking, but all psp games do that. The chases are fun and the cops are good but not great. One of the better PSP games to come out in the last few months.

    I like 70s and graphics and musics are fine. As a driver series lover i liked, finished, enjoyed. minuses collectables useless? a little short story line.

    I wasn´t expecting that much, but I gotta say I love this GTA clone. What it lacks in innovation, it more than makes up for in vehicle controls, music, voice acting, graphics and mission design. Great fun. Give it a try. You won´t regret it!

    Superb, in my opinion better than GTA, If you like the GTA driving this is even better, handling is so much more realistic and each vehicle really does feel right, the damage is also very accurate, and you can watch behind you as bits fall off your car and crumple as they hit cars, road etc causing more damage, brilliantly realistic feel, the graphics are spot on and very varied as you Superb, in my opinion better than GTA, If you like the GTA driving this is even better, handling is so much more realistic and each vehicle really does feel right, the damage is also very accurate, and you can watch behind you as bits fall off your car and crumple as they hit cars, road etc causing more damage, brilliantly realistic feel, the graphics are spot on and very varied as you drive through the city etc...Sound is also near perfect, love the 70's sounds really get you into the flow...all round a mix between GTA and Race driver with a bit of fun thrown in, this game will make you laugh... Highly recommended 9/10. Expand

    It's basically Driver: Parallel Lines Lite. If you aren't a fan of the soft reboot Driver: San Francisco, which basically got rid of walking and shooting altogether, then this is the last game in the series to offer the GTA-like experience.

    hikaye ve grafikler çok daha güzel olabilirdi. özellikle grafikler. oyunu PSP ye çıkarıyorsunuz diye driver 1 den bile daha kötü grafikler yapmanıza gerek yoktu.

    I put 10 out of 10. The game was released on the PC port version of the original PL Driver, without any cuts. In terms of gameplay, everything is the same + adapted for PSP, but even if we take into account the uncomplicated plot and strange missions, the technical side made a pleasant advantage.

  1. Driver '76 is a GTA clone that's technically uneven and short on originality, personality, and content.
  2. Vehicle customization in Driver 76 is a beautiful addition that gives it a slight edge over the notorious GTA, in the vehicle department.
  3. Driver '76's brand of road rage does get more right than it does wrong, and though it might not offer the best combat action or racing excitement, it still deserves a look for its competent mix of the two.
