                            So after a 
                              couple more positive comments, it again shows it 
                              is possible for people to like DRIV3R, and 
                              therefore possible for PSM2 and XBW to like it 
                              too. 
  Edit- *Looks up*.

                              utter tripe. They are nearly always influence

                              shite English and complete lack of knoweledge for 
                              the games industry, yet alone their own.

                            I don't know 
                              they might be DivX in which case google DivX and 
                              download the DivX players. The AVIs might be 
                              modified DivX AVIs which are compressed and, er, 
                              stuff. 
  And by the way the frist mov 
                              doesn't work at all - dead link - I really wanted 
                              to see the flying car! I thought that was only 
                              possible in GTA: Vice

                                I retract anything nice or 
                                positive i've ever said about Driv3r. i'm on the 
                                chase mission, after the botched meeting with 
                                the bagman dude. i've begun chasing calita, and 
                                at some random distance i fail the mission, even 
                                though i can still f**king see her! when she 
                                gets overthe bridge and i'm told to find another 
                                route, i turn around and head back, only to fail 
                                the mission because i'm too far away! this game 
                                can just f**k off. i thought it was good, but i 
                                have no idea why i'm chasing all these people 
                                (due to the vaguely bland plot) who seem to 
                                drive perfectly, even making the AI of Gran 
                                Turismo look poor and amateurish. 
  I 
                                apologise to anyone who had to spend the time 
                                and physical energy to diasgree with my posts 
                                about the goodness of this game. It is a 
                                cankerous floater that deserved to be flushed, 
                                along with all the other turds. 
  Btw, has 
                                anyone noticed that (with the exception of FSW) 
                                all the uber-hyped, utter shite games have these 
                                "preview dvds" that you get when you pre-order 
                                them (Tomb Raider AOD, True Crime, DRIV3R!!!) 
                                
  Now i'll go back to Ikaruga, a game 
                                that's impossibly hard because it was designed 
                                that way, rather than Driv3r, which is 
                                impossibly hard because it wasn't designed at 
                                all.               |   
  I apologise again. I had 
                              had a bad day, and Driv3r's little annoyances had 
                              gotten to me. It's not that bad, it can actually 
                              be quite fun. It's one of those games that comes 
                              into it's own once you've finished it, where you 
                              know what to do, and it's a matter of making it 
                              look good for the cameras. 
  Perhaps another 
                              angle on the reviewer bribe thing is that perhaps, 
                              just maybe, some of the reviewers liked it, and 
                              some others 
didn't? _________________

                            Trelliz, 
                              
  I respect subjective opinion of course. 
                              Critcally here nothing about the condition of the 
                              game is mentioned in either review. Therefore 
                              there is nothing on their impact on gameplay. 
                              There is a nine out of ten review sticker on the 
                              box and some sequential stuff reciprocated in the 
                              booklet and magazine. The wider issues here are 
                              engulfing this title and it serves Atari right for 
                              releasing an unfinished game out to the public and 
                              then trying to choke the 
                              reviews. _________________ I came here to

                            Sorry, i 
                              haven't been keeping up on this, one of the 
                              fastest growing topics ever. Perhaps it'll breach 
                              the 100 page mark. Has that ever been done 
                              before? _________________
