ekin113 Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 They physics in the game are supposed to be amazing.....the graphics are great...oh the bikes look SWEET....could it really be better then gta....lets wait and see To bad we gotta wait Link to comment
TwwIX Posted February 28, 2004 Author Share Posted February 28, 2004 (edited) I am not gonna compare the two games.No reason to bash neither one of them.Gotta love em both. It's too early to tell anyway. Yep, the the physics sure are sweet.Like many upcoming games they're using the havok physics engine aswell.So that's a big plus for them.

ekin113 Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 Hey...i like em both 2 and wasnt gonna bash em..lol...I wounder if r* will pick up on the Havok Physics engine...hmmm Link to comment
TwwIX Posted February 28, 2004 Author Share Posted February 28, 2004 Hey...i like em both 2 and wasnt gonna bash em..lol...I wounder if r* will pick up on the Havok Physics engine...hmmm I know that.I was only stating my opinion. No idea if they will be using this physics engine too.Rockstar hasn't really revealed that much info on the upcoming installment.We still don't even know if it's either going to take place in Sin City or San Andreas.I am sure that they'll come up with something new and refreshing to suprise us with though.I mean look at Vice City. After they released Gta3, it only took em about a year to give us another piece of fun too. Link to comment
ekin113 Posted February 28, 2004 Share Posted February 28, 2004 Sin city or san andreas?.....well if sin city is like Liberty City I would like to see that, maybe their will be 2 citys this time around....who knows Link to comment
[KFC] Smeg Head Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 Maybe all three will be joined, and u go by plane to get to each 1 Link to comment
vass69 Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 i would be cool if u could fly abound with a plane Link to comment
[KFC]Teknickel Posted March 7, 2004 Share Posted March 7, 2004 Driver series after driver 1 = garbage Driver influencing gta = complet bullshit Rockstargames disliking driver = tru story theres several instances where they make fun of them in a couple instances in the game i think one of the guyz u kill has the same name as the main character or sumthing... I'm not saying the game looks cool but i always thought the games were awful the plotlines were rediculous and unbelievable and when they tryed to add the leave car thing tryin to be like gta and it came out horrible.

ACIDman Posted March 9, 2004 Share Posted March 9, 2004 Well.. I hope, it is something that will help me to wait for San Andreas . Anyway, it's even better since I gotta get some rest from Vice City (I'm too "used" to it, and since San Andreas will have the same engine I may not find a difference between games ) + some new ideas and cars. About this movie of ATARI's, "Run the GAUNTLET" - gee.. Is it a copy or should we consider it plagiarism? It has "Gone in 60 seconds"'s plot, and this good looking girl with scary voice and accent . Anyway, good to know. Driv3r will ease the sufferings of waiting . Link to comment
TwwIX Posted March 9, 2004 Author Share Posted March 9, 2004 About this movie of ATARI's, "Run the GAUNTLET" - gee.. Is it a copy or should we consider it plagiarism? It has "Gone in 60 seconds"'s plot, and this good looking girl with scary voice and accent . Have you ever seen "Bullitt" or "The French Connection"? It has only been inspired by these movies like GTA:VC was by Scarface/Miami Vice etc.Most games usually are anyway. You could even say that GTA 3 and VC were inspired by the previous Driver titles and the other way around, which actually is true.So there's nothing wrong with that as long they come up with new unique and creative ideas to add to their games.

ACIDman Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 No no. "Run the GAUNTLET" IS a movie, it's not just an intro to the game (as far as I know). That's the thing - they've stolen the plot, the car (looks like Eleanor, Ford Mustand Shelby GT 500 '67), and added those naive details ("Cops will be waiting for him" - is she mad? Does she want a car or not?). Link to comment
Turbo X Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 diver still was my favourite game.... i was overobbsessed Link to comment
DrEaM4D Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 Driv3r looks like a GTA:VC clone . Link to comment
orappa Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 Driv3r looks like a GTA:VC clone . Not an exact copy, mind you, but it's taken its fair share of inspiration from VC, yes. Link to comment
Guest Posted March 10, 2004 Share Posted March 10, 2004 i cant wait to get my hands on this game the 2nd game was a kewl storyline so cant wait to see this one Link to comment
ACIDman Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 Whoa! The new screenshot are amazing! Take a look: http://gamespot.com/xbox/action/driver3 ... index.html Now I can say I can't wait for the game to come out! That's one of my dreams - drive really fast through those small, thin european city streets. + 60s Mustang is one of my favourite cars . Looks like every car looks completely different, and all of them are modelled and texutred quite well. On the other hand, will my and others' computers handle all of that beauty? Oh, I hope you don't think I sold my soul to the Driv3r . -- And I really like what they've done on the site in the "Story" section - where you get to actually FLIP the pages. Cool . Link to comment
orappa Posted March 18, 2004 Share Posted March 18, 2004 The screenshots in the sunset look uncannily like Vice City. And the guy (I presume it's Tanner - he looks a lot different ) looks uncannily like Tommy Vercetti. Link to comment
ACIDman Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 Well.. That's silly . Neither the guy, nor the game look like the ones in Vice City. If you're talking about the point of view the camera looks upon Tanner, that's like comparing Half-Life and Doom - they're both 3D-action games. Sierra has stolen the idea of MONSTERS from Doom! Gee.. Driv3r's looks totally differrent, and the whole game design is different too. I like the detailed city textures, city walls with cracks on them etc. Let's see how my machine will handle all that . Yes, it's Miami, too. And it was before, so why don't we accuse ROCKSTAR in plagiarism? Sure, Reflections (and ATARI) want to be on the same level with Driver as R* is with GTA, although I don't think they want to make Driv3r look exactly like GTA. The screenshots and what I've seen from the trailers looks good so far, and not quite similar to GTA. Actually, now I expect better level of realism than in upcoming GTA. I'm not saying GTA is worse - I just want to get a variety of games from the genre I love. Sure, for developers it's a copetition, but it's just better for us! Isn't it? Link to comment
[KFC] El Burro Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 They won't even attempt to make it look like GTA, it just a devolopers thing. And yep, Tanner has swaped his Muscle Cars for Muscles himself, eh! Link to comment
ACIDman Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 Honestly, after ugly "Enter the Matrix" (which I liked - I just wanted to dodge bullets and run the walls, and I got it ) I'm rather afraid of ATARI. I guess they just publish Driv3r, but I assume Reflections was bought by someone or ATARI gave it a lot of money (gee.. make a MOVIE for the game, with VFX on the level - they must've invested enough), so it should show on the quality of the game (at least, on graphics). Who knows, maybe they plan a quiet revolution . Quiet, quiet, then all of a sudden - bam, a nice driving game . Looking at the maps, I wouldn't say those cities are that big though. Consoles won't be able to handle a lot of detailed cars + huge cities. And I don't want those small towns. I need space to ride! Link to comment
[KFC] El Burro Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 Games devolopers havn't even been able to release they're full potential yet because Console and Computer Devolopers don't make stuff powerful enough. But I acctually think Consoles will handle it better than some PC's. The XBOX will definatley handle it better than most PC's, dunno bout the PS2 but the graphics for the PS2 version are just as good as the Graphics for the Xbox and PC versions. And, ha and lol to GC babies coz they're not getting it now! Stuck with Monkey Ball for another year... lol I agree with The Matrix though. Atari made a really shit job of it. I think they should stop making and get Publishing! Link to comment
ACIDman Posted March 19, 2004 Share Posted March 19, 2004 I'm sure, that's what their job with Driv3r is. Reflections get money from them, make a better game, and rich but talentless Atari publish the game . That's what I think. I may be wrong. Link to comment
[KFC] El Burro Posted March 20, 2004 Share Posted March 20, 2004 Nah, your right. They made their Millions and Billions back in the 80's and shoved it in the bank. Plus compound interest they must be getting bout £5000 a day for doing nothing. Times that by a Decade of NO SPENDING makes round about... £20 million extra in their bank... not bad Link to comment
Turbo X Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 sorry i gotta put this back on the top, like i said driver2 was a good game, and i want more ppl taking about this. I saw the gaunlet, and it looks good- but GTA:SA seems like its gonna beat it by a lot. They should start selling it before GTA:SA cause everyone is gonna be hooked on that and nobody will give a fuck about Driv3r. Link to comment
Turbo X Posted April 17, 2004 Share Posted April 17, 2004 and why dose XBOX have a better graphics card than any other computer and is for sale at $200. The graphics card that im about to buy (tommorow) radeon 9800 pro is $240. It'd be nice if i could remove it from the Xbox and use it on my computer. Link to comment
