Re: Driver 3
 

what a crap game, i took mine back to Game after 2 hours. Shame on Atari for releasing this.

Re: Driver 3
 

Sonds like the hype around Unreal II the awakening.

I bought that and wished i never had,
definately not gonna waste my money on this one after all.

Re: Driver 3
 

I'm buying this, but I'm really not too sure about it.

Re: Driver 3
 

More bad reviews....

IGN - 5.5/10, see http://xbox.ign.com/articles/525/525153p1.html

GameSpot - 5.4/10, see http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/action/driver3/review.html

Re: Driver 3
 

Getting really unsure about this now.

Re: Driver 3
 

Well, personally, I'd steer well clear of it (based on the various bad reviews it's had, based on what other people have said, based on what I've heard about it, etc. etc.)

Have a read of the reviews it's had (but not the XBoxWorld one, lol, as they have admitted they reviewed unfinished pre-release code, containing various bugs & glitches, & yet called it an exclusive review, made no mention of the bugs, & gave it 9/10....hmmm.....)

If you still think you're going to get it, then at least get it from somewhere like GAME - that way, if you don't like it, you can get your money back (good old 10 day return :) )

Re: Driver 3
 

I got it yesterday and only played it for about 30 mins as FSW was taking up most of my time.

My first impressions are that it's not a bad game. Very much like GTA but with slightly sharper graphics. I didn't find the controls much of a problem and actually thought the walking controls were better than GTA. I haven't come across any clithes yet either.

Re: Driver 3
 

Simply put Ryan, this is driver and not GTA. If you ever played driver and liked it then you'll enjoy this, apart from the out of car action. If you're looking for another GTA game then steer clear.

I used to really enjoy driver but after the birth of GTA3 I lost interest. I did buy Driv3r and it arrived Monday but I can't wait to return it as it really doesn't do it for me anymore.

Re: Driver 3
 

I saw this yesterday and was shocked by the amount of cars that just popped into existence!!
The frame rate also looked a bit dodgy?
Not what you would expect from a 2/3 generation XBOX game!

Re: Driver 3
 

Makes me think it is a port of the PS2 version. GTA also suffered the popping up car effect. The city also has a lot of pop up as well. But still I love the driving parts. I still prefer driver 2 though, much better(not the graphics though).

Re: Driver 3
 

played it yesterday, i like the "thrill cam" feature, but other than that it is the most dull game ive played in my life.....stay away........stay faaaaaar away!

Re: Driver 3
 

Its a shame because people that ive spoken to have said it is really good. This is the PS2 version.
