So what's my beef? How about a frame-rate so bogged down by the overly-ambitious concepts in Driver 2 that it almost seems like it's in slow motion. Curved roads are swell, but with popup so bad that entire buildings appear out of nowhere, you want to scream.
The control is fine and the game is really fun, but the engine struggles so mightily you wish it a painless death. Perhaps I'm just jaded these days, but with an office full of beautiful Dreamcast and PlayStation 2 games, seeing any title, even one as fun as Driver 2, plagued with slowdown and pop-up just irks me. Why wasn't this game released on the PS2?
Nearly every element is great, from the physics to level design, but it's hard to forgive huge buildings materializing right in front of you with no warning.
If you can get over the graphics which was hard for me , you'll find an incredibly enjoyable game underneath. It's madly challenging at times. The gameplay is still topnotch, but it just leaves me wanting a PS2 version even more.

Necessary Necessary. An expansive free roam map lets you drive around the city causing destruction and mayhem at will, but watch out because the police will soon be on your tail. Driver is reminiscent of Grand Theft Auto in the early years but focuses on the driving aspect only. Driver offers several ways to experience the game such as missions, free play, or undercover the story mode.
In mission mode you are allowed to select from a variety of missions including pursuit, getaway, and destruction. In destruction mode your goal is to cause as much damage to the surroundings as you can in the allowed time. Missions are received on your answering machine in story mode and can be accepted or saved for later. If you just want to drive around causing havoc then free play is the choice for you. Free play allows you to pick a city and just roam the streets at will without timers or missions.
In all modes your car does have a limit to how much damage it can take before you must start over so keep that in mind when you're deciding whether or not to ram the car in front of you.
The large size and variety of maps mean there will be plenty of exploring for you to do in free play. Running from the police can be a game in itself. Even one minor infringement, and they will do all they can to destroy you.
Doing 56 in a 55 zone? If they see you they will come after you and not quit until your car is wrecked. This can be a little annoying at times. This is the style of the game, and attempt to recreate Hollywood style car chases of the 70s, but it can be bloody annoying to drive when you have no grip and super-soft suspension. The Bottom Line: Brilliant. Lots of fun, great story, great action. Not as much fun to drive as Midtown [Madness], but it beats it in almost every other area.
And it's really big. This game will keep you busy for weeks. Screenshots from MobyGames. Jack Rainer 3 points. Jay 2 points. Takumi Fujiwara 1 point Windows version. Unknown 0 point Windows version. Petre -4 points. BenoitAdam 2 points Windows version. Steven 3 points Windows version.
