I played DRIV3R couple hours ago, such a good game Edit: Atari told Reflections (studio behind this game) to release it handful of months before the game was ACTUALY finished.
Yes and another big mistake they did was trying to compete with GTA series. Although platforms are very similar I strongly believe that those two games couldn't be considered at the same lane.
To anyone saying Reflections is behind the bad game, it was Atari who told them to release the game too early. Watch the documentary by GVMERS on Rise and Fall of Driver series..
and if they were able to finish it it would be a pinnacle of 6gen, like later gta v was a pinnacle of 7gen. Driv3r on ps2 looks so awesome and the cities are incredible. Especialy Istambul that looks like something that simply shouldn't be possible on ps2. Cars were also great. Even the shooting had a proper idea behind it (free camera instead of shitty autoaim), although it wasn't finished.
I can still remember when Driver 3 came out new like it was yesterday. I liked it and never really cared for it's flaws because the atmosphere was right for me back in the day....I really miss the early 2000s.
@@EdyAlbertoMSGT3 The whole game's point is to *drive* to stuff to shoot things and complete objectives. The vehicles are set with very limited top speeds to make it easier for you to manage the driving even. Why the fuck did it had to be mangled that badly? If you don't want people using vehicles, then make the map more compact! But somehow the map is 4x bigger than the original San Andreas. :/
@@EdyAlbertoMSGT3 in Driver the physic is easy but! Looks realistic, and I think it could be epic to see police chases after a hold up with a physic which looks realistic (OK I am sorry for my English :()
Driver PL was perfect game from all of chapters. Those soundtracks, splitted world on before and after, really cool main story. When I played first time, I was shocked about that setup and putting main character in to the prison. The story line is so cool, even if it would be a movie, it be awesome movie. I would like to play this game in remake, with new modern graphics. Unfortunately nobody will do the remake of this game
Driver 3 would have been a masterpiece had the devs kept their ambitions in check. It was too big for it's own good, and it had to be released early because there was no more money to be spent on it's development. Playing it really feels like playing a mid-dev version of a game, the driving and the cities are cool but that's about it.
Driver 3 I believe it was the game I played the most in my life, I played a lot on PS2, and then on PC. You can say whatever you want, for me this game is amazing in everything, I had a lot of fun with it.
Hell yea! Driver Parallel Lines is one of my favorites! I have spent so many hours of my life playing this. Driv3r I actually got next. I love it, but I love Driver Parallel Lines more! Thank you so much!
I really like the text-based reviews you are doing. Gotta say, sometimes it's so much more calming than a voice every second and at least I can really immerse myself into the game's soundtrack.
It was a spin-off? 2 Years ago I got Driver San Francisco (very cool for me) and 76, I didn't even pass the 2nd mission because I didn't understand a shit about the story
This brings back memories. Doughnuts! Get your doughnuts! Driver games will always be in my early gaming memories. One of the first video games I see as an 8 year old was the first driver before I had a console then I got PS1 with Driver 2 and have bought all of the Driver games since. Hope they can make a come back again one day!
Yeees Driver Parallel Lines! got a PS2 copy and have it on steam edit: U forgot to include that Driver parallel lines also had a few cheat codes with gaining amounts of miles driven and such!
Driver parallel lines in my word book its the meaning of my beautiful childhood i miss this game and will love it forever. memoriiiies and childhood is great. The think i love most about the game is the era change. When i turned 6 years old i still played this beautiful game and i accidently restarted the game. I cried and begged to my brother to help me complete the era change because it was so cool to play in 2006. And the songs on the radio. Do we really have to talk about them, just perfect songs. I even used to sing them in my daycare. This game needs more attention.
For some odd reason i really wanted to Driv3r a few years ago, got it on PC and played it, last missions were very hard but in my mind for a game of this era (i mean open worlds of early 2000's) its good. The soundtrack of the game is made by Iggy Pop and to me that's one of the biggest qualities of the game, just really fits the game atmosphere, on the music aspect the game is particularly good (i like that style of music though so it might have helped me to love the soundtrack). On PC the shooting was ok when you compare it to GTA Vice City on PC but not when you compare it to GTA San Andreas on PC which came out a few months after, it feels outdated and slow, the character movement is bad though i agree on that, and thoses games were more aimed at PS2 than any other platform so its not that good of an argument to defend the game. If you compare it to GTA Vice City its not that bad, but when you compare it to GTA San Andreas its terrible, and it wasnt buggy on my PC but i played it somewhere in 2014-2015 so basically with a much more powerful PC than needed. When i finished it i did some research about the game, that was a few years ago so i dont remember precisely what i found. The game suffered a lot from its long developement (it started right after driver 2 so in 2000, 4 years was a long time to develop a game back then) But when the game was being developped Atari told them to pick up the pace and rush the game's development to be able to release the game before GTA San Andreas, which was supposed to came out in October 2004, Driv3r ended up coming out in June 2004 so they achieved their goal. But at what cost ? Well the game was a commercial success (3 millions copies sold for a AAA game it was big) but the critics were bad, just above average or worse. Atari told Reflections to finish the game 6 months earlier than expected, 6 months is still a enormous time today but imagine back then when game's development were like half shorter than today, so it probably had an immense impact, especially on bug fixing, we can only dream of what heavily respected masterpiece this game could have been, maybe the gameplay wouldnt have been fixed or maybe it would have, who knows. But wait its not over, Atari really wanted to be the bad guy of the story, when the game came out and everyone played it, players rushed forums to warn people about how bad and buggy the game was, and Atari, in their evil mode, decided to hire people to delete the critics on forums of the game ! In 2000's there wasnt social networks so it was realisticly possible to do that, and they succeded very well, apart from a few journalists articles no forums posts about the game exists anymore. Its called the drivergate and you can find more detailed information on youtube if you want. Hope this little bit of context enlighted everyone ! Nice video as usual ! I was too young to play games from this era but i like to study the impact they had on today's game, and for some of them i boot up an emulator and like to have some fun with theses old games from time to time, its really interesting and sometimes funnier and better than modern games !

@@speedy_boi_69 idk any videos of them but the glitch can happen, i was on the l-train track in a san marino racer when i did the glitch, there is 1/100 chance of glitch
Driver PL was my childhood, you have no idea of how happy it made me knowing that people other than myself considered this a pretty fuckin' good game i thought everyone thought it was trash for a second and that i was the only asshat in the world that i liked it.. im so glad im not the only one! so many childhood memories!
Driv3r is one of my favourite games ever. Also there is a spot in the Miami survival mode where the cops can't reach you. The timer goes up to one hour and then you win.
Driver Parallel Lines had a good gaming concept of timeline itself. Especially the protagonist TK who in 1978 thought he was going to make it big in the criminal underworld until he was set up. Almost like Tommy Vercetti. However unlike Vercetti who spend 15 years in prison and moved to Vice City, TK spends more of his life in a cell than in society and fueled with revenge he really is more out of touch of society and broken. But there’s a slight chance that TK could find a life without causing so much trouble and problems. Tommy may have succeeded in becoming the kingpin of Vice City but he’s stuck in wearing that crown until another one can take his seat. TK however can find that spot of a quiet peaceful life he deserves to be in. And it’s running his late friend Ray’s mechanic garages
I used to spend a loooot of time in the Take a ride mode of Driv3r. Especially in Nice as I'm french. I was really enjoying the cars (most of them looked a lot like real ones), their behavior and destruction
Too much remembers of my childhood watching this video ^^ remember me when I was a kid, how was Nice in game (I lived there too) (and hello France too 😃) with all the glitch/bugs that there was, sunday afternoon rain in front of PS2 and all these games I played (CMR/GTA/ Driver/GT4/...) And thank you for this beautiful video !
I really liked Parallel Lines. This game seriously learned me how to drive through absolutely packed streets at high speed. Handling was pretty good too. Very arcadey but predictable. Maybe I should revisit it soon🤔
I'm from İstanbul and its an accurate replication of late 60's - early 70's İstanbul, or atleast a part of it. We still call that part "the old İstanbul". Some of the signs and company names aren't turkish, just made up words and the NPC's don't speak the language accurately but when the game actually came out it was a huge selling point here in Turkey since you don't see many games have much about us.
I'am from nice and i'am happy to know that my favorite youtuber lived here , nice video and Bonjour la France ^^ Sur et certain que des français suivent cette chaine.
VC, I really enjoy your videos. Theses retro vids are bringing back PS1, PS2 and early PC racing games. I don't know if you've highlighted one of my favorite blast from the past Road Rash 3D Please do a video on this, I realize this is a motorcycle game but...IT WAS ADDICTIVE. I almost beat it.
Driver 3, malgré ses défauts il reste magnifique. C'est l'un de mes jeux préféré de tout les temps. Il est inimitable, il a un petit truc qui m'avait bien plu à l'époque et encore aujourd'hui ca m'arrive de refaire des missions de temps à autres
Look like that the developer (Reflections) had some serious conflict with the publisher (Atari) during the production of Driv3r. They wanted the game to be better than GTA San Andreas, but didn't gave enough time to make it properly, even with all the fundings. Atari tried to make a dirty move with two magazines, attempting to raise the hype, only to end in a horrible backfire. That's why Reflections moved to Ubisoft in 2006. Source: Guru Larry Channel.
what this Driver lacked was the comic relief from the prior and latter titles. it nailed attention to detail of the landscapes and cars pretty damn well.
I really liked this game back then. I played together with a friend with no memory card, so we had to finish it through the night. The details were incredible indeed. It was mind blowing for me to see the bullet holes in the car. For me, at least graphically, it was better than GTA Vice City, for example.
One is slashed from Driver fans memories the other is one that I didn't know about until a year ago and I find entertaining for what it is the not on purpose forgotten one that has a banger soundtrack and is pretty much a prequel of the driver games before and after it came out
Imagine if driv3r was finished so that it released in 2005. People would love it and then the most important part is that Parallel Lines would probably release later so it would be on the PS3.
Driv3r graphics is still good! But Driver Parallel Lines graphics ahead of the time!! Same as Gta 4 graphics. Even some environment graphic details better than Gta 4
I'm gonna try to make a driver game in Dreams ps4, if I ever have the time. I forgot how good parallel lines was. I didn't really like the cartoony graphics though, or the soundtrack, so I guess those were kind of big put-offs, but I still played the hell out of it
I sunk so many hours into this game and san andreas. Honestly I plated this more just because of the 3 cities and the physics. Now gta 4 changed that and I played that more on release
I Tell you an amazing thing. Parallel Lines also was released on Nintendo Wii. I love the driving, the same cars are awesome, and some sounds of the cars are beautifull. Also i think than this cars are counterparts for others. i complete several times the game and to be fair, i think has a better story as well like a driver and a name The Kid. Very suspicious. I like that. PD: Jeremy Clarkson intesifies at minute 6:25
For 2006 standards Driver Parallel Lines CG cutscenes was neat as f***
paralell lines was a hugely under-rated game with a very clever time travelling storyline it needs to be rebooted along with driver SF
indeed!!!
I agree completely. The best driver game.
Been saying it for years, bring the series back, I hate how companies own ips and do nothing with them, the getaway being one
I completely agree adored the 70s New York setting we need more open world games set in the 1970s
Don't forget the driv3r

I dont care what they say
For me Driv3r is a good game
I sunk so many hours into this game and san andreas. Honestly I plated this more just because of the 3 cities and the physics. Now gta 4 changed that and I played that more on release
DRIV3R deserves a remaster.
Damn this game was in my childhood remmeber playing this on my ps2 playing this and my psp damn its been long
Driv3r best game I ever had.
What's the intro from ? Sounds so familiar
They should make one similar to parallel lines of course with new everything
I remember Driver parallel lines,and I played this game
This is why his name is viperconcept
*He loves dodge viper*
Awsome ;) next The Getaway for ps2?
Driver 3 was my absolute favorite driver
I remember the Driv3r website had a minigame where you could damage a car from the game, it was very realistic
I would love you to do TOCA Race Driver Series especially Race Driver GRID and GRID 2. Also Forza and PGR Series
I have played driver:sf today, such great memories
on the driving side of Parallel Lines : it is much better than the shooting part, since the main point of the series is driving.
J'ai beaucoup aimé Driv3r et Driver ParallelLines. J'ai d'ailleurs refais le ParallelLines y'a pas si longtemps. ^^
That's the point when you start to recon that you still speak French a little.
@@---pp7tq I don't understand everything, but I agree. 😂😂😂
I am a huge driver fan, specially 1&2 . I subscribe
exhaust just hanging out
literally
driv3r is legendary game for me, I played it as a little kid and the stupid police was so funny
Driv3r cars and car physics beats any game of the sort, so much fun and enjoyable
The rest, eeeeeeeehhhh lets forget about it
Driver San Francisco has to be my favorite
waaait i dont remember that menu looked like this... i was playing on PS2 and menu looked better from what i remember
Props for this video.
Such a beautiful game, insane graphic on its era, awesome storyline. I choose to play this than GTA SA as a kid back then haha
I Tell you an amazing thing. Parallel Lines also was released on Nintendo Wii. I love the driving, the same cars are awesome, and some sounds of the cars are beautifull. Also i think than this cars are counterparts for others. i complete several times the game and to be fair, i think has a better story as well like a driver and a name The Kid. Very suspicious. I like that. PD: Jeremy Clarkson intesifies at minute 6:25
