Listen to over 60 music tracks with songs from famous artists, not to mention the original memorable Driver theme.
Microsoft Windows version will be released on 27 September 2011.
THis game although for people unaware of the DRIVER Series , would seem like a GTA type game , your only objective in the game is to drive. Race to checkpoints , Overtake cars , chase and takedown a suspect etc etc// The story seems to be quite confusing and twisted , considering how you change to different cars in the game [ Let's not provide any spoilers ]
The game really Su(Ks . how come gamespot had given 8/10 in PS3/xbox360
everywhere(forums) its the same people say it sucks and give no reason for it...
anyway not wasting my time and bandwidth on this...though i found the gameplay trailers interesting
I'm totally enjoying this. Mission types are varied and very good. Controls are smooth. There is a bit of challenge in the missions. I am very much liking this.
Only complaint - Color tone. It just looks darn dim.

Couldn;t have said it better , the game is a lot of fun to play , the missions are a mix of GTA and NFS
And the graphics does look a little bit outdated but i'm not complaining
Yes it indeed looks dated. The car models are looking great. But world... not so great. They could have added bit more detail to damage models. Not to say that they are bad now. But a pure racing game could have used a bit more details to the damage model. And I really like the way he uses his second hand to steer while doing long turns. Adds a lot to the realism. And also, the way it animates when we apply hand break. Using one hand for hand break another to steer the car in a middle of a chase just feels very nice to me.

OT
when it comes to Driver animation, nothing comes close to Colin McRae Rally series, since its first game.
Not just that, the Glowing Brakes too.
I miss the glowing brakes in F1.
Anyways, Tanner has been in GTA SA

This game is being discussed, while you should be discussing games like dirt, F1, heck even tf2 thread is dead.
What's happening to tdf?
Next Ra.One?
instead of playing this, play the classic No One Lives Forever (NOLF) series.
You'd have more fun for sure.
If you want really good racing game, with tough missions, then play NFS Porsche Unleashed, its factory driver missions will keep you busy for a long while.

I think that's your definition of fun. I guess the word fun is relative. I am playing F1 and am very much liking it, Except the bugs.
This might not be a good game for you, but... that doesn't mean that the discussion about the game will make the forum inferior.
I get it, you played the game.. you didn't liked it. But, Just move on. Let the people who are enjoying the game play the game and have fun.
P.S.: Played and brought down NOLF, Porsche Unleashed long ago. Completed Dirt2, Dirt 3 carrer modes. Right now.. playing F1 2011 parallel to this.

Might be. But for a gaming genre in which most of the games will not have any kind of cockpit view what so ever, I guess this game is doing pretty well.
