I played this not long after playing GTA3 as I was hoping for something of a similar style. Bad mistake to make.
Driver is exactly what is says. It's purely driving to certain points to complete your mission.

And it's not just the less than ...

It's spectacular graphics set it apart from the rest with realistic and licensed cars that make the game as thrilling as it is. When you first start the career mode you set in an American muscle car race in the streets of Detroit. Your aim obviously to win the race but, this is the first time that you see the extent of the graphics and realistic sound effects.
After finishing this race you have to race for other teams so you can gain enough money to refurbish your Ford Mustang Boss to mint condition. Once you have done this you are able to create your own team,this allowing you to enter any race that you wish, which you have a car for, as you work your way through you gain enough moeny to buy different cars.
