I'm pleased to announce I got my hands on the third Driver yesterday because of it being released early.
I was wondering if anybody else had it and if they agreed my opinion that it is better than GTA Vice City.
Now I'm Vice City's biggest fan, but I'm afraid its had its time, and until San Andreas comes out, Driv3r will be the best driving game out.
I found that when you play Driv3r, you can see all what is wrong with Vice City. And you can see just what is so brilliant with Driv3r.
For example, Driv3r is so much more realistic. I'm talking about in terms of the cars, people, getting shot and general game play.
You can get shot in your car, and die!
Unlike Vice City, where you can crash your car going 100 mph, when you crash on driver you get effing hurt.
And when you drive into a lampost in Vice City it comes out of the ground and plays off!
Not in Driv3r. You hit a lamp post and you satop dead, just like in a real car crash.
Its the same with the trees. They dont smash into a million pieces upon impact.
The damage of the cars is so much better, things hang off it when you've driven it round like a maniac, like the bumper.
AND YOU CAN SWIM!!
unlike Tommy Vercetti, you crash your car in the sea and you can get out and swim to shore!
Police are pretty smart too, as are the public.
You pull out a gun in the street, people get out their cars and leg it!
And if you try and twock a car or bike and the owner has a gun he's likely to bloody well shoot you with it and take his vehicle back!
Vice City is not as serious I know and thats what made the game so much fun.
Things like calling the race tracks "Dirt Ring, Hot Ring and Blood Ring" is an example of Rockstar not taking their game too seriously.
Driv3r doesnt have these comical quirks and thats a good thing because its a totally different game.
It doesnt try to be GTA, which is what some people believe it to be doing.
The missions require most skill, as does the shooting.
The cities are massive! They really are huge.
GTA can move aside until San Andreas comes out. Driv3r is the baddest dog in town and will remain in my PS2 until the 22nd October when Rockstar release their chart topping piece of work.
Any thoughts on Driv3r, do you think it's better than Vice City? You disagree?
