This "tutorial" took me three months of frustration and the purchase of a steering wheel/pedals setup to complete. Thankfully, it taught me all the skills needed for... NOTHING!!! AT NO POINT IN THE MAIN GAME ARE YOU EVER REQUIRED TO PERFORM *ANY* MOVE FROM THE TUTORIAL!!!! I'm still angry about this to this day. Loving this channel's commitment to realism along with its nostalga-tinged feels! Each video has perfectly avoided drifting into the nostalgia-tainted glowing-happy-memories-only sludge-pits spread by others and that almost engulfs the entire retrospective realm. Great work!
You are absolutely right. You never need any of that in missions, maybe hard 180 break, but nothing else. Not a single mission required you to execute any of specific moves. So ywah, the frustration is apot on
I loved the tutorial. I watched my friend play it. Whenever he couldn’t do a maneuver, he handed me the gamepad and I did it. That made me want the game, but I didn’t end up getting any of them but Driver 3. I loved Driver 3. The facts that the cops only get called if there is a witness and that cops enforce traffic rules had me hooked.
I rented this game when it came out and had no trouble with the garage section. Till this day I still don’t get how people were stuck in the tutorial forever.

Same, never had any issue with this but that might be because I don't suck at racing games.
Got this game as a kid. HATED the tutorial so much, I returned it later that day. Never before will I complain about a tutorial being boring again. One of the shortest, yet most horrible ordeals in my gaming life. Loved San Francisco on the PS3 tho, and i completed it, so I must have seen something in this franchise.
I just didn't know what a slalam was. It wasn't often I got to rent video games and I couldn't even get past the tutorial. Actually probably turned me off the entire franchise as I didn't play any other driver games after that.
That garage is NOT the game tutorial. It's the first level. I feel like I'm the only person on the entire planet that went under the training part of the main menu and found the actual tutorial. The Garage level with a ghost car to follow and a controller showing you exactly what buttons to push for each move. That first level is very easy once you do the actual tutorial. This is still a fantastic and fun game. Love the 70's vibe from the music.
Holy shit! You are absolutely right. I just tried that out and indeed, it has a demonstration of how you do things in order to succeed! But it's not very efficient driving tbh. But yeah..that training should have been placed at the start of the mission - it would help a lot of people beat it
@@kristijan893 Agreed it could have been put somewhere a bit more obvious. Or if you failed, maybe the game over screen gave a hint that the tutorial exists. Although the game manual also mentions it's there. It's not very efficient driving but the point of the level is to impress the gang, not be efficient. Most of those moves dont get used in game. Lol.
in my opinions i would say its the best in the series however it is quite different from the previous games and has a lot of unique gameplay in comparison@@kristijan893

To this day I still don't think there's an open world game that does the driving feel and chases as good as this series, it's kinda amazing.
Yes, it still feels so meaty, so fresh.. Like it has certain weight into it. The car feels like a car when you drive it.
In France, this trauma is called : "T'as ruiné la caisse, mec !"

"Hey man you wrecked the paint job"!!!!
Whyd you have to go and remind me of that bro. 😢
My brain did such a good job at repressing it.

😂 Took me some goes, was a part of the game that made it interesting! Like Micro Machines and Gran Turismo have tests too.
I was too inexperience with driving games to complete the tutorial without losing enthusiasm for the actual game.
True. I remember we struggled with the tutorial level. But I managed it and I played the whole game. The last level was a pain though.
I hated this so much as a kid. Had my older brother do it for me
Can you do it now?
@@kristijan893 probably not 😂

or you could drive off the map in san fransisco on psx between two buildings at one of the map corners where they forget to insert a wall
MAKE A VIDEO ABOUT "The Getaway" PS2
You ever play driver san Francisco?, if so i recommend it.
No I haven't. Is it that good?
in my opinions i would say its the best in the series however it is quite different from the previous games and has a lot of unique gameplay in comparison@@kristijan893
I thought the whole video was gonna be about the tutorial xD
Any tutorial you can't skip is the worst
Waam Baam Boom! Shalom, slalom, whats the difference?
I see no difference hehe
This isn't really that hard once you learned what slalom mean't. Everything else was self explanatory. Its the last mission that is complete bullshit.
