   Driver Parallel Lines: A huge improvement over Driv3r and certainly a good contender to GTA: 8/10
   Driver 76: A nice stripped down portable version of parallel lines: 8/10
   Driver San Francisco: The perfect reboot of the series, takes the mechanics of the first game and everything that makes it great and mixes it up with the idea of taking control of multiple vehicles at your will, The best in the series so far without a doubt. 10/10
   
   Driver has had a fractured life, started great, then went down, then went up, then disappeared for about 4 years and then came screetching back in with an excellent reboot, let's hope "The Crew" will be as good as Driver SF was!… Expand

Visuals are awesome, game-play and controls are fluent and perfectly balanced, soundtrack is one of the best I have ever heard in games. Definitely best (non-sim) racing game I have played, with strong focus on story telling (real, interesting story in racing game!) and many new well balanced game mechanisms. If you are a racing person, this game is a must.… Expand

I also managed to look past all the flaws of the 3rd game, and enjoyed that one as well. It was obvious the series was going down hill so I never played any of the games after that. Driver San Francisco is a definite return to form though. The game is all about driving, just like the first game and that's exactly how it should be. You can no longer get out of your vehicle and run around on foot, and considering how that was always the worst part of the previous games, this is a good thing. Instead you can just zoom the camera out to a birds eye view of the city and select a new vehicle to shift into. The whole story behind this is ridiculous but at the same time entertaining. I found myself enjoying this game from start to finish.… Expand

The variety of missions and cars allows you to jump in at any time and progress your storyline or just have some fun. Plenty of action and well produced. The only downside is a bit more attention could have been provided to the surrounding environs. The people jumping out of the way feels a bit weak… Expand

   I wanted to like Driver San Francisco, I really did. The plot was interesting, and the graphics and visuals were great. Unfortunately, theI wanted to like Driver San Francisco, I really did. The plot was interesting, and the graphics and visuals were great. Unfortunately, the game suffers from 2 flaws which really diminish the experience. The first is that the driving physics are not enjoyable. It's very heavy on the brake/drift mechanic and the cars spun out way, way too easily. I don't claim to be an expert on if the physics are realistic according to the models of car or not, but I do know for a game like this, where driving plays a central role in the mechanics of the game, the physics diminish the fun factor of the game. Some missions I had to repeat several times due to poor AI (give me a chance to avoid crashing into some of the cars in the world!) and/or the insistence of the AI on racing missions that I destroy opposing cars. Most vehicles in the game fishtailed way, way too easily and handled very poorly. Understandable on semi truck or vw bus, not so much on a sports car.
   
   The second flaw is the the stovepipe way the storyline progresses. I would have enjoyed at least the illusion of an open world game - as each chapter in the story unfolds, you are given what looks like options to continue forward - but rest assured, you will have to complete each "suggested" mission before you can progress to the next level. In some cases, the missions are part of the story arc - and that makes sense - but often they are simply random people you never see again, or the mission has nothing to do with the overall plot of the game. I've enjoyed every game in the Driver series previous to this one, and would have loved to give this a higher rating. Unfortunately, this is a flawed gem.… Expand
