Driver San Francisco, 12 Years Later
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 15 มิ.ย. 2024
- Driver San Francisco is one of those true cult classics. It's a game that I had always heard my friends and the racing game community as a whole praise for being one of those true one-of-a-kind passion projects. I missed out on it and put it low on my to-play list as the last Driver I had played was Driv3r, and the less said about that game, the better. 12 years after its initial release, it was finally time to play Driver San Francisco, and boy was I ever shocked at what I had been missing out on. Driver San Francisco combined ingenious approaches to how not just racing games told stories, but the medium as a whole. While it may be fresh in my mind, I can easily say that Driver San Franciso goes up into my favourite racing games of all time.

Thanks man
if you feel so offended because moses is making a good amount of money from youtube then just get an ad blocker and fuck off LOL
Sorry, I detected a distinct odour of bitch coming from this area of the comments section. I'm guessing it's you, right?
It's called a review, asswipe.
Comments like these are often from people who make them can’t make something themselves.
This game has something that 99% of racing games lack today. Soul and personality.
Need for Speed Unbound be like
@@serperior2264 so the art style doesn't have identity, soul and personality?
@@ashar8192 no, it's half assed, it's attempting to be unique but is clearly playing it safe, otherwise they would have gone all in and fully cell shaded the game, but that wouldn't appeal to casuals who want hyperrealistic cars so they settled on the characters being cell shaded and only the characters. Plus, having some fancy driving effect doesn't give the game personality, it's like putting a bow on a pig
@@serperior2264 you are not the one to decide whether they are playing it safe or not. The direction was clear from the beginning, as you can see from the leaked Alpha gameplay. Just because they didn't cel shade everything doesn't make it half assed lmao. Also tell me one game that is not Automodellista that has similiar effects like Unbound?
I will definitely remember Unbound for it's art style and it definitely makes it stands out compared to the other big arcade racers, even when the gameplay is lacking
@@ashar8192 -never said I was the one to decide, but I'm allowed to critique games, saying otherwise would just be trying to silence me
-no, it does make it half assed, just because it was "clear from the beginning" doesn't mean it wasn't poorly implemented, plenty of people hate the cell shaded look and Criteron probably predicted this, therefore decided to make the entire rest of the game realistic to try and appease these people, this in contrast to games like Art of Rally or Need for Speed Nitro which both fully commit to their artsyles and actually stand out as unique because of it, without the driving effects, Unbound is almost indestiquishable from Heat
-If it helps it stand out for you, then that's great, I actually personally like it myself, however, I'm disappointed they didn't go all the way with it like other games would have
I always loved the fact that the whole story felt like a TV series. Especially with the whole "Previously, on Driver San Francisco" cutaways. It's a shame there was never another Driver title being made, but I'm glad the series ended on a high note.
at some points I thought it was DBZ and was half expecting perfect cell to pull up and blow up a freeway full of cars
The Crew 1 is the next best thing if you want another driver
@@rightbehindyou9398 Ehh. That game has too many issues including the fact that you can't replay the story as if it's your first time. You have to go through all of the missions on the map and hope it's in the right order.
@@purpleturtle8841 Fair enough, but what other issues does it have? I don't like how when you buy a paintjob/vinyl/rims you can't see it in the tuners anymore and have to go to HQ, and sometimes car physics in cutscenes break (due to one of the major updates), and it's always online connection which sucks and only hurts the game (and the players). That's all the issues I can name.
Everything else in the game is a blast. People (who didnt even play the game) liked to slam on it too much because of hivemind mentality, while in reality TC1 is one of the greatest racing games ever made. It has a great car customization, the car spec feature is amazing, the map is still the most big AND detailed map in any game I've seen, the story is good (reminds of me driver), the general game style/aesthetic is impeccable (sadly ruined by Wild Run DLC), the music selection is very fitting and memorable (also reminds me of driver), the online/multiplayer is extremely well done (both PVP and PVE), and guess what, the handling is great if you take less than a minute to tinker in the handling options (even better with a steering wheel).
I still play this game almost a decade later with my friends and there are almost no issues we run into, and if we ever do they're minor and quite rare. This is really one of those games that you have to play yourself and really soak in the atmosphere to vibe with it, and while we all have our opinions, the "Ehh" you gave this game is kind of insulting.
(I don't mean to fanboy over this game that hard, but having spent the last decade playing mediocre to downright terrible racing titles that never innovate or improve on anything, I really started to appreciate older games like TC1 a lot more)
@@Vegas70 Why are you making it sound like the car damage is so poor? It's better than FH2/3 that came out with 1-2 years difference. Driver SF came out 3 years prior from a different studio (although ivory tower did collaborate with reflections on TC1), but 2014/2015ish was the turning point where open world racing titles started having toned down car damage models, we don't know for sure why but we can assume it's at least partially because of licensing terms changing. And grid is a closed track simcade racer from 2008 anyway, not a fair comparison.
Honestly sounds like a classic nitpick non-issue that people liked to complain about regarding TC1. Me and many others have been playing this game for nearly a decade and the car damage model never bothered us, and it's nice to have one at all unlike FH to this day having a few scratches and small dents and that's it. And going on even further, it seems that TC1 had a slightly better damage model prior to the 2015 Wild Run update (or as I consider it, a somewhat of a downgrade), which might be an even bigger indicator of licensing terms being the problem.
I seriously want a remastered version of the game. It actually deserves to be remastered.
witha Chevy Prizm!
I'm just glad that the disc version version of the gane is BC on the xbox consoles
You graphics snobs need to stop.
The graphics are fine get over it and just play the damn game
Hope your wish come true. Had no chance to play this game back then and hope it will come remastered well after Ubisoft fiasco ends.
I can agree with that, they could add 2023 cars, use the same city with better graphics, and upgrade the characters/cars graphics out of cutscenes.
But re-use the thousands of dialogues that they spent so much time on.
This game is absolutely amazing and will always be in our hearts.
a game being in your heart sounds a bit concerning, will there be games in your lungs next????
The handling was so damn good. It felt like those 70's car chase movies.
There's another really cool Easter Egg that you may or may not have noticed. It's a reference to both Back to the Future as well as the first Driver game. Basically if you buy a delorean and reach a speed of 88 mph, a side mission will unlock called Blast from the Past and guess what? It's a one on one recreation of the first mission from Driver 1, the infamous car park mission. It's such a cool easter egg, they truly poured their hearts out making this game
OKAY! OKAY! OKAY!
I know this Easter egg! I found out about it every time I found the DeLorean.
Yeahh I loved this one, absolutely brilliant
The fact that back in the day, so many people complained about this game's story being so weird and saying things like, and i quote, “writers being high while writing ” forgetting that it all happens in a coma, still makes me facepalm 'till this day, what a underrated master piece this story was...
I agree
My cousin introduced me to this game many moons ago through the brilliant split screen multiplayer. We had so much fun that I ended up buying the game for myself and played it to completion. I was already impressed by the shift mechanic but when I saw how well it was integrated with the single player story, I appreciated it a lot more. This game holds a very special place in my heart. Your review was amazing and thank you for doing it justice, “you’re a life saver”, Moses !
LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, YOU KNOW WE HAVE TO MAKE IT NOW MOSES
Thanks for mentioning that this gem has split screen support. This makes it so much more awesome!
this game has splitscren multiplayer?
This game will always have a special place in my heart. It's criminally underrated.
winning a battle with every version of moses!
GTA IV or V hype was too great that time. Forgot what year this game released.
I was a mission scripter on this game at Ubi Reflections. Of all the games I've worked on this is the only one I still play from time to time. I love it.
I don't know, what mission you created. But it definitely is brilliant.
you guys killed it, get that team back together.
Reflections were legendary! Ubisoft killed them
The game was awesome. Youve done a really good job since i still play it today.
The driving physics in this game puts any current NFS and/or GTA to shame, it's so good
NFS becomes too arcadey. Can't blame Criterion since they made Burnout series. EA should continue Burnout and NFS is better developed by Black Box.
@@gamtax rip black box
I don't know if it's considered realistic but it's indeed so enjoyable and really put those games to abosulute SHAME
Even the first Driver does it, even (almost) 25 years later
Some people don't like the driving physics tho as it's way too easy to slide out
My favorite thing about the story is the way it balances the fact that nothing Tanner does in the coma has an effect on reality with keeping him relevant. Sure, he doesn't DO anything in the coma, but he does LEARN quite a bit from the TV in his room, and that lets him put together Jericho's plot while everyone else is running around in a panic.
I miss racing games that actually had a lot of charm and innovation to them. DSF was one of them and I can only hope if we see another racing game like this in the future. Great review!!
Couldn't agree more
I hope so too!
I also LOVED the fact that you could shift into a car in the middle of a live conversation between the driver and the passenger. Such a high level of immersion!
There were hundreds of dialog lines written for this and you never had to listen to one of these twice. So an other totally awesome feature, never done before, never done again but the devs took the risk and were able to execute to absolute perfection!
A fantastic game, a game that Ubisoft doesn't let you buy anymore. Probably because of licence problems. It's sad though, as this was a great game, unique in it's kind. 2nd person, detailed damage model, physics are almost BeamNG, fun selection of cars to play with. The game basically feels like a toybox filled with cars, part of it thanks to the story.

Hard to believe it came out 12 years ago. It holds up so good, and all thanks to the game's originality and character.
ADACHI IN MY COMMENTS?? REAL??
@@ultraviolet_channel shh, don't blow my cover. I am hiding from the feds. Bleached my hair and moved to a small town called Morioh.
The story in this game is something that is truly out of mind. An action film like story, hell even driving the cars (Specially from interior view) feels like playing a realistic game or something. This game is also ahead of many modern titles nowadays. I always had fun crashing cars with huge ass buses in the bridge, causing chaos everywhere. And then doing some insane glitches like the bus goes absolutely crazy when you damage it from the back constantly.
kind of like fortnite!!!!!
I just started playing this a few days ago and remembered how much I would play this as a kid, it’s just so unique that it’s hard to forget. This, midnight club la and hp2010 were my childhood favourites and it’s sad that nothing has quite reached or exceeded these games despite the insane advances in technology
cheese biscuits
@@serperior2264 yucky, chocolate biscuits for life
@@AcidMayo27 blocked
Hp2010 is storyless
@@tanvirs9022 I know, what are you trying to say?
You put it together well. However i would add that the cockpit camera was one of the best made ever for an arcade experience. Real 900 rotation and countersteering when drifting, and the fluidity of direction change and sense of speed made me play it for longer than i dare to admit haha, it just felt so good just hoonin in ane car
Undoubtedly one of the greatest racing games of all time. I remember being on the hype train for this game and it vastly exceeded my expectations (which were already very high). A true masterpiece.
Sonic Frontiers
This is still amazing to play today. The driving was so much fun. The escaping coma missions were intense, and the whole game was awesome 👌 masterpiece
oooooh I love your name!
@@serperior2264 thanks 😊
This game actually has amazing physics all of the cars are a thrill to drive. And they express having real weight to them! And Split Screen which is rare in itself!
Damn. I was so lucky to be a racing game-loving kid when this came out. This game was an absolute blast & I’ve got so much nostalgia for this game
Same here. I remember when this game was brand spankin’ new. Couldn’t get enough of it.
The hours of playing demolition derby with my step mom the years before her passing is why this game stays in my memory
This game is one of my favorite of all time. I remember I got it on X360 and it did not expect much, I was not too familiar with Driver series but oh man. The story was great, the controls were very satisfying, the map is sick and the cars selection was superb. I rememeber compliting the whole game and then began to unlock all cars. After that was done, there was still multiplayer and I play a butt load of it on split screen with my mate. A great game for sure!
Mose, when you come visit me next, bring driver so we can play the splitscreen please and ty
I quite literally re-downloaded this game yesterday and this gets uploaded! It truly is a groundbreaking game that will forever be held in our hearts.
we have the most superb timing
DRIVER San Francisco
I was so addicted to this game. I can not even count how many times I completed the campaign on various Xbox accounts and I am still not bored of it...I loved that the map size got bigger an changed the variety of cars with them. This game is just a vibe and I love it and now that I am older, i appreciate the story and the dialogues with passengers even more. Also the final story got me sweating and I loved watching at all the details when that gas explosion occured (opened car dores because people tried to flie or trash and newspapers on the streets). The details ♥️
So happy you made this video! My all-time favorite racing game for sure! Thank you!
Mine too!
No problem!
@@ultraviolet_channel For real ?? I wanted to ask but thought you would have mentioned in the video 🙂
I love that little detail where the willpower cost isn't based on the actual price of the car, but rather how Tanner imagines driving each one of the cars themselves (with american cars being the lowest, for obvious reasons).
This is one of best racing games I’ve ever played. Wished there were more vehicle mods for this game.
Thanks for this very in depth review of one of the best driving games out there.
YOU'RE WELCOME!!!!
Shift mechanics also allowed for one of the missions where instead of 1st or 3rd person view, we played in 2nd person view. THAT is what had blown my mind on the first playthrough
What I am very impressed about the game is that the performance is surprisingly good
the FPS was pretty consistent, around 60 or 50 FPS I think
I don't remember my game lagging at all, it was pretty good
Dang burnout and driver went out on a high notes I’m really glad that happen the legacy’s will inspire many indie racing games in the future
We're in a stage of racing games right now of "Freedom, but to a fault."
Like, giving someone who has never played a piano before a piano, and going "You're free to make music!"
Someone who has never played a piano has more "freedom" to make noise than someone who has been a practiced pianist, and has the skills to know what noise is just noise, and what noise is actually pleasant music, this parallel can be applied to new racing games as well. you can do whatever you want in the recent forza games, but unless you have the knowledge and finesse to builld yourself a compelling story, and therefore game, given the VAST sandbox you are presented with, you're left just kinda playing in the sand, not building anything worth playing.
You're not a dev, yet here the dev is giving you all the tools to build your game the way you want it, and going "Fine, do it yourself."
This game was truly a love letter to the 70s car chase films. I still remember the OG Gone In 60 seconds mission. Hard as hell but it was memorable. I picked this game up at a pawn shop years ago best 10 bucks i ever spent. Its one of my top 5 games ever
Ah good old Driver Games. I remember playing the first one in 1999 and I remember beeing so hyped for Driver SF. I will never forget this legendary series.
that's so nice!
Another banger as per usual my man. I don’t know how I’ve never heard of this game! It’s now gonna be my new favorite
why is this guy's voice is so perfect.
STOOOOOOOOOOOOP
Haha you like the cartoon reviewer guy hehe forgot his channel name though
Edit : its SaberSpark
@@szewei85 i didn't knew SaberSpark him until now.
Always loved this game. Such a creative concept that allowed you to be creative with your strategy. Great video as always!
Masterful Writing my friend, you bring passion to every word you say.
I saw this today! Somebody finally appreciates this game as much as I do!
This game is ABSOLUTELY amazing!
Loved playing it back in the day,
The story felt immersive, The cars were interesting, And i also remember being pretty amazed by the graphics and loving the quality of the cut scenes.
Couldn't agree more!
The most beautiful driving experience and drift in games
Driver San Francisco is an Underrated Masterpiece… That we should not have gotten after Driver 3 but damn am I glad we did! This game didn’t get the love it deserved, hopefully we get a New Driver Game At some point I do miss this Franchise!
The driving physics in this game is amazing, you can see me driving my Murcielago in this game. The plot is put in allot of work and other that? Everything you said about this game was cool.
I'm so old I remember when Racing Games actually strived for a good campaign story
FOR REALLLLLLL
Amazing game, used to play it to death back when i had it for the ps3, sadly broke the disk in half, but my love for the game will never break in half
A minor detail I love as well, not only with the steering wheel degrees, but also the fact that Tanner actually shifts in automatic cars. He actually has animations for center console and column shifters.
Better wheel support and a manual transmission option would've been amazing.
ive been playing this game since my dad bought it on release, ive always loved it and im so glad its been getting the love it deserves in recent years
The "Previously: on Driver San Francisco" mechanic is a mechanic you wouldn't find in any other racing game, that's one of the few things that makes in unique.
Great video! I must have played this through 12 times now since release, almost once a year, its the best comfort game and it never gets old. Great unique story and theres always another character to listen to lines of when shifting. Think i rmrmbwr an interview with an old writer last year saying theres was several thousand in car shift characters which is insane
It really is!
This game is so underrated. Everyone who's played it loves it. But I feel like not many people played it unfortunately.
I really hope we get another Driver game someday, or a remaster of this one at least.
I love this game to death, great video!!
I was playing it a couple weeks ago for the memories and it’s freaking ridiculous how fantastic this game is.
Was it good? - Froot Chronicles
I logged so manny hours on this game back in the day! I had so much fun just driving around.
I remembered getting this game for Christmas in 2011 and played it nonstop on my PS3. Great video
aren't you american?
@@serperior2264 what does that have to do with anything?
@@DetectivePhatWeedington I just think it says a lot about modern society
i pre-ordered it back in the day, it's the only game i've ever pre-ordered. i remember being so hyped about it, having played all of the previous driver games and finally seeing a new driver game with real licensed cars, while still having the dna of the old games. online gameplay was insane too but bad matchmaking killed it very quickly
the only regret i have is passing by it at game store years ago thinking it was just a generic racing game
skull emoji!
My favourite stuff was the different types of city missions
-Car chases
-Scaring instructors
-Keeping people alive
-Stopping bad things from happening
-protection missions
-that cable tv guy trying to capture wild driving
But my Absolute favourite one was the kidnapping city mission, where you legit feel the tension with the kidnapper, the actual fear and horror from the dad and how driving on main roads felt like you were doing the wrong thing (you weren’t allowed to drive on them and you’d feel and hear music that you were doing the wrong thing)
I’ll always appreciate this game❤
YOU'RE NOT LISTENING
the physics are so good I don't know how ubisoft didn't use these physics in the crew
Honestly, this game is a gem that shows off the full potential of open worlds, racing games, and video game stories.
this is a lian...
Really impressive overlooked gem of a game. Sad that it didn’t set a benchmark as it should. There exists an old article on Eurogamer with an interview of the developers explaining in great detail the technical challenges they faced with this game, a great read.
I am SHOCKED to see that the game FINALLY got some attention!
One of my favourite racing games ever beaten only by nfs mw ‘05 and carbon. Replayed this game countless times, did all the side quests and races, played it online and still revisit it sometimes for nostalgia.
Everything from the aesthetic to the driving engine i just love and look back to this day. Truly an underappreciated masterpiece.
Can't wait to watch the official live action adaptation of Driver this year on Binge! #ReDriver
Produced by Binge, not released yet!
This game deserves a sequel or at least some form of comeback
DRIVER SAN FRANCISCO even in 2023 still a blast to play.
One of the most enjoyable driving games I've ever played.. Pity there has been nothing like it since. Going to get my old console out of it's box and have another play through of this top notch title. Awesome review.
Couldn't agree more!
My favorite driver and driving game hands down 👍🏼👍🏼🔥🔥
I remember seeing this in a store when I was 7. I bugged my mom for it and said she'd buy for my 8th birthday, which she did. I didn't understand how cool the game was until I came back and played it a solid 5 years later and realized just how cool it was. The mission where tanner goes into cardiac arrest is one of my favorite missions in any game
Incredibly good game
you're an incredibly good game!
The mechanic in the last mission that allows you to control two cars at the same time is just mind blowing and unique.
One of the only, if not only, 2nd person gameplay
One of the only, if not only, 2nd person gameplay
@@Hassan-ww8jf Yes, they really nailed it.
Driver, my most beloved Series 🥺 Driver was my first game as kid on my PSX… damn, it‘s been a long ride since 🥲
Another really cool thing about this game is that it plays really well with a wheel!
I love wheels
It’s still an amazing unmatched game. My father and I started with the very first Driver so we were excited for this and loved every second of it when Everyone else thought it was wierd. It’s strange how many ppl love it right now.
Driver SF was and still is one of my all time favorite games. Quality car selection, a fun story, and a game the capitalized on the movie car chases of the past. It is so sad it didn’t get the respect it rightfully deserved. Even graphically it has definitely stood the test of time. The damage was far more believable than most titles even.
I remember picking up Driver as a rental from our local german equivalent of blockbuster, and immediately falling in love. I got the deluxe edition right after that, i even have a collectible toy car that came with the game. Driver SF will forever be a part of my childhood, as it was the first game i really fell in love with
hi Julian!
There is one more game in which you can shift your mind between diffrent characters depending on task its called Clive Barker's Jericho (Shooter game). Whole concept was pretty interesting, i will try explain without spoilers... after first mission you are able to swap your mind with other people in your squad which have unique abilities, you also travel back in time backwards, first to world war 2, than medival and so on and so on, to a begining. each era you will be in have completly diffrent enemies etc. Definitly worth checking in this underrated gem.
Five Nights at Freddys: Security Breach
One particular feature in this game that impressed me was the effect on some of the older cars supension when you stop. I don't know if there is a certain term for it. The whole car keeps bouncing after you brake. I haven't seen this level of detail in a game before or after Driver: San Francisco.
Thinking about this game always make me think about how the game is totally unique on its own. It has story that is so extra and yet at the same time is actually genius from narrative stand point. The licensed cars is a nice touch but the balance between the cars you'd see on roads commonly and high-end sports cars makes it click. It's sad that it fell victim to perhaps one of the worst business decisions in gaming, but I'm glad that this game gets recognition.
I just wish that I could get my hands on this game to experience it myself.
Man, what can i say? The production quality, your clear chill voice, and most importantly the topic of the video, they are all very well made.
And i must say this, giving like to youtube videos these days is a hard task for me (due to the fact how much sh*t post and clickbait content exist) but this ART right here deserves an instant like!
Pretty sure took a lot of time and effort to edit and montage this video and i really appreciate it.
Not going to lie, this and the crew 1 got to be one of my favorite racing games. mainly because of the stories.
I've heard that The Crew 1 ( and later The Crew 2 as well) should have originally been planned as a sequel to Driver SF. We got a different game but with a good Story nonetheless.
I liked TC1 so much I bought the second one and was strongly disappointed, literally only one line in the whole game talking about something that was a part of TC1.
The Summit in TC2 is what made me drop it (after getting the Platinum which I must say wasn't hard).
Nothing new + Story not worth replaying made it not worth getting better parts or new cars.
@@Hushio-Hero I could definitely see you how the crew would be a sequel to the driver San Francisco. nevertheless, it's still a spiritual successor my eyes.
Man I love the crew 1 so much I already left like 3 comments/replies under this video mentioning it.
This game was amazing, so many fond memories
Have you the seen all the views you’re making ???? I’m so happy for you man 🙏
I can’t believe it either brother, it’s humbling 🙏
You should do a review on Driv3r, my favorite installment from the franchise. It has an interesting backstory and how due to circumstances and dates it never reached it’s full potential.
I haven't played a game so many times as driver San Francisco.
It has a very special place in my heart. Also it had an impact on my grades in school 😂
There a some small mods downloadable, unlocking all cars from every mission.
From the soundtrack, to the selection of cars to the story, to the physics... The 2nd person mission... It's just perfect!
Couldn't agree more!
I'm very happy that you enjoyed thid game as a whole because I adore it's creativity and innovation that these games just don't touch on.
I watched a video on it when I was 10 and was intrigued on it's story and mission. So when I got a PC I tried it out and it was unbelievable how intricate yet so smooth the game is.
I kinda miss those in modern games.
This is truely a gem.
Also a specific mission, I think it's the one where you control the car in front of you.
I remember that someone else made a video that 2nd person gameplay has been made in that mission that shows you controlling Tanner's car but inside the hummer following it.
the face of Alexis...
im shocked you didnt mention the 2nd person perspective portion of the game.
I must play this. Shifting mechanic reminds me of older Nascar games where you could control your teammates mid race
do it, you wont regret it, promise
What I love about this game is how they introduced new cars in each chapter while keeping either 3, 4, or 2 cars from previous chapters in the new one. What I also love is how many cars that you’ve never been able to play before, just AI’s in other games, are now playable here. I just loved that and how they brought many underrated cars in the real world (imo) into this game. It really feel’s special in a way. And ofc I love the story. I’ve played this game since I was 4-5 years old and now 16, I still play it. This will always be my fav race car game.
You're a lifesaver. (For real though the Xenoblade series is phenomenal and holds such a special place in my heart).
LETS GOOOOOOOO, WE'RE MAKING HIM REVIEW IT SOMEDAY
Couldn't agree more had a blast from start to finish with this game
I love this game! I wish i still had it to play it again
12 years? how is time going by so fast.
GTA V is 10 years old now, FH2 is 9 years old now, NFS 2015 is 8 years old now
feel old dammit
One of favorite games I've ever played
So damn fun. I had a Logitech wheel/pedals/shifter setup I’d use to play this game on PC.
I mapped E-brake to fourth gear on the Logitech shifter so it was (kinda) like ripping an E-brake to initiate a drift. Also, using the hood view in the Crown Vic PI during pursuits to get that police dashcam perspective was so fun. Very underrated title.
The thing that lacks in this game in my opinion is more small hidden spots on the map that you can explore after finishing the game, like in burnout paradise, for example. After completing game you eant to take your time and explore the world a little more. And at that point i realised that almost every gas station wasn't accessible in driver sf. And i also wish this game had a better cop chase system
I only played the demo and couldn't get enough of it. What a game.
