    I get that people hate the first mission in Driver 1. I remember playing the demo on PC and later we could get our hands on the full game and it was brutal, we spent days trying to figure out how to pass that mission but when we (by that I mean I) beat that first mission it was game on! It was so satisfying to get through that and once I figured out in what order the challenges to be done I can do it after a couple of tries every time I want to play some Driver. That mission is also in Driver:SF which made me giddy when I frist saw it :D

    Crawfish is a developer company logo that always makes me smile when I see it. Like you said at the beginning of the video, they have an amazing roster of video games for Nintendo's handheld consoles. It's actually amazing. I remember loving Ecks Vs Sever 1 and 2 based on the gameplay and the music. They're always powerful in those components, but with Driver and Ecks Vs Sever, there aren't enough songs to be played in the game.

    Once emulated the story part of this one years back. The "Test Stuff" cheat (if I recall that's what it was called in the menu) was interesting as well. That title song was the only track I recognized, and I find it interesting that PS1 has only 2 of 3 minutes from it (every PAL and NTSC versions I've played had that), while PC has it all. In CD-audio even.
