Driver 2

The first was DRIVER was excellent, but it had many flaws. DRIVER 2 corrected them by adding some great additions to the game. Now unlike DRIVER (1) you can now get out of your vehicle and switch to another car before your totaled. There are also great 2 PLAYER options. The game is probably one of the best ever made. But, there are still some corrections to be made. I don't like how they shrink the maps on the 2 player games and the fact that there are no cars, let alone no police cars either on the "TAKE A RIDE" mode on the 2 PLAYER setting. Also you should be able to swap cars while the police are in pursuit of you. My only other problem is I wonder how accurate the maps are. It would be great if they could accurately map the whole USA. Anyway the game is excellent as is, I highly recommend it.

The game is more linear than Driver, but it has a much better gradation of difficulty than Driver, as well. It starts out easy and gets harder until the last mission is very difficult, unlike Driver where some in the middle were next to impossible and had to be circumvented by going through an alternate plot line.

Multiplayer is fine, you can have fun with it, but it's not really a type of game play that lends itself to multiplayer.

The voice acting is good, Tanner and Jones do great together, the cut scenes are less confusing than the original Driver.

You can now steal cars. You still can't run over pedestrians or shoot, this is not Grand Theft Auto, the focus is on driving, and in that it succeeds. The locations are better than Driver, the cities are more open, Chicago in the game is the Chicago I remember from having been there, and it's interesting to drive around in Las Vegas (although all the missions are in daylight so it doesn't feel like THE Las Vegas) and Havana. Despite the other user's comments, I found less glitches in this than Driver, although I played the Playstation version where bugs are generally less common because you don't have to make it work with hundreds of video cards and half a dozen CPUs on three different operating systems, all at varying speeds.

You can drive some bigger cars including school buses and trucks, and there is actually a helicopter though not in the story portion of the game. It probably represents the limit of what you can do with a driving game on the Playstation hardware. Most definitely worth picking up if you are a fan of city driving games (as opposed to closed course racing games).

This game is so cool, it's better than the first driver game because in driver 2 you can get out of your car, which is cool, and you can get into other people's cars. i like the driver because it's so cool and you can do anything you want, like drive all over each town city.

A way better than the first, getting out of the car was a controversial move besides the great cinamatics and characters, I think it's one of the best cars open world games on PSX.

Compared to the weaker final title in the original Driver trilogy, Driver 2 seems to do a fantastic job at implementing new features and mechanics that make the gameplay experience more enjoyable.

I found myself being hooked on the narrative of the game, and I was charmed by the many FMV cinematics in-game, which I viewed as a great reward along with the vast unlockable content available.

My only complaint is the sheer spike in difficulty compared to the previous title, but each challenging mission can be overcome with time and patience.

Overall, Driver 2 is a really great title, and I would suggest playing this game over Driv3r, any day of the week.
