Driver you play the wheelman
for hire in various missions around cities such as Miami and San
Francisco. An expansive free roam map lets you drive around the city
causing destruction and mayhem at will, but watch out because the police
will soon be on your tail. Driver is reminiscent of Grand Theft Auto in
the early years but focuses on the driving aspect only. Several Thuggish Game Modes
Driver offers several ways to experience the game such as missions, free
play, or undercover (the story mode). In mission mode you are allowed
to select from a variety of missions including pursuit, getaway, and
destruction. In destruction mode your goal is to cause as much damage to
the surroundings as you can in the allowed time. Missions are received
on your answering machine in story mode and can be accepted or saved for
later.
If you just want to drive around causing havoc then free play is the
choice for you. Free play allows you to pick a city and just roam the
streets at will without timers or missions. In all modes your car does
have a limit to how much damage it can take before you must start over
so keep that in mind when you’re deciding whether or not to ram the car
in front of you. It’s a Challenge Outrunning the Cops
The large size and variety of maps mean there will be plenty of
exploring for you to do in free play. Running from the police can be a
game in itself. Using highspeed maneuvers in an effort to “lose your
tail” is one of the most challenging aspects of this game. In addition
to practicing your getaway skills, you can also become better acquainted
with the map. Knowing the map can make missions easier during the story
mode. Lack of Instructions are a Bummer
Driver does have a few drawbacks. The game doesn’t make this clear, but
the first screen you come to is the main menu and has the options tab to
make any adjustments to controls, sound, video and so on.
At first the game can be frustratingly difficult if you are unfamiliar
with the terms used (slalom, speed, brake check) . You are given a list
of actions to perform with your car before you can continue and a one
minute timer in which to complete them. No other instructions are given
so the player is left to their own devices to figure out what to do.
Once you have completed the assigned tasks in your one minute timer you
can be assured that you are now a professional driver worthy of any of
the game’s challenges. Conclusion – Story and Freeplay are Where It’s At
Driver offers an experience full of high speed chases, precision driving
techniques and lots of destruction. Storyline missions and free roam
play make a winning combination. So as long as you stick to a
combination of storyline and free play this game will provide nearly
unlimited entertainment.
