Far from perfect
Before you run out to your local software store with $50 in hand, you should be aware of a host of problems with "Driv3r."
Too much of the "Driv3r" game play takes place on foot, rather than in cars.
The artificial intelligence is flawed. For example, criminal characters often walk into the line of fire for no apparent reason or run away from the action without explanation, making the shootouts less fun.
The game's controls and animation also feel unresponsive and stiff.
Because of these technical and game-play shortcomings, this new sequel is merely an average adventure. The "Driver" series isn't running out of gas just yet, but the next version could use a tune-up.

not surprisingly, DRIV3R got so poor ratings all over.
Biggest flop of 2004

I rented it for xbox when it came out. Wasn't that good. Too much boring on foot action. They tried to make it too much like GTA. I liked it better than the 2nd one though. That one was hard and extremely glitchy.

Imo it's one of the best games so far this year. Don't listen to stupid idiots and crappy reviews - this game rocks!

Are you one of those guys who work at the company that got hired by the publisher to walk around on forums and promote the game? If so, bug off... Otherwise, please explain?

I liked the driving in the game, it was hard at first but when you got used to it then you could do alot of cool movies, other than that it sucked.
