Take a Ride is a better place to start as it allows you to cruise around one of the four cities in the game at your own pace. All of the driving games allow you to enter your score on the scoreboard if you wish.

The Undercover missions consist of a storyline where you play an ex-racecar driver turned cop named Tanner who goes undercover as a Driver for various gangsters. There are a variety of missions that are similar to some of the driving games, such as pursuit, but most are timed checkpoint style.

Surprisingly, the first mission in the game tends to be harder than many subsequent missions. After that, they are fairly easy and get progressively harder as you make your way through four large, different cities: Miami, San Francisco, Los Angeles, and New York City. In fact, the missions get really difficult towards the end of the game and the last mission is just downright crazy.

Between most missions, you will get a cinematic sequence to keep the story alive. In some cases it will bring you to your motel room where you have some options for saving or just driving around the city. Your "enemies" in this game consist of the cops, gangsters, the clock and various combinations of these. The general traffic patterns, including the way the police drive, is really bizarre. For instance, cars make left turns from the right lane and vice versa.

They will often cut you off and do a ton of lane switching. In fact, it seems the only real traffic law they follow is stopping for red lights. Blaring the horn at these drivers seems to do nothing at all. With driving like this, why is it the cops are after ONLY you? The back of the package says the Analog feature is supported in this game. Technically this is true as you can use the analog joystick on the controller, but it acts virtually the same as the digital controller.

After some close examination, I did find that the analog feature is used, but the stick is not sensitive enough for you to ever notice it during the fast-paced gameplay. This button also helps immensely when trying to control the car. In addition to steering, you also have buttons for the gas pedal, brakes, hand brake, horn, and a button to do a burnout for faster, but harder to control startups.

I found being able to look behind the car very useful in this game. On screen information is simple to read and work with. You have the timer, if applicable, damage meter, felony meter, and the most important item: the map.

The timer and damage meter are pretty self-explanatory. The felony meter will rise as you outrun and outrage more police or gangsters, thus encountering more and making them harder to shake. The map on the main play screen allows you to see a small portion around where you are located. It also shows any police and whether or not they are chasing you.

There is also a map of the whole city in the pause menu that is incredibly useful for seeing where you need to go and planning your route. A nice feature included with this game is the ability to "make a movie" of your mission or drive by placing cameras at different locations on or near the car. When directing, you can switch cameras to give you the best angles possible for whatever is happening in the movie.

When done making the movie, you can save it to your memory card so you can show it off later. Unfortunately, there is no feature for allowing you to select what car you want to drive either in the Undercover missions or any of the other driving games.

Quite nice, but pretty standard as far as PlayStation games go these days. The cars, buildings, and people themselves have good detail.

When cars get hit, the amount of damage caused is very apparent when looking at them. Unfortunately, the only time you hear this is on the title screen. The game sounds themselves are pretty realistic, but nothing groundbreaking and consist mainly of A LOT of squealing tires, engine sound, police sirens, and crashing. The cut scenes consist of a variety of people leaving messages on your answering machine and "city" sounds outside.

Memory card can be used in either or both slots, 1 block per save game , Shock controller compatible, Analog controller compatible. Given the style of this game, there should have been better analog controller support. With its variety of different types of driving games and storyline Undercover missions, Driver has a lot to offer. Overall, this is a difficult, but very entertaining game and will provide many hours of enjoyment and a few hours of frustration, which is why I give it a score of Your name is Tanner.

A few years back you left professional stock car racing for police work. The criminal underworld has accepted you as one of their own and you have been hired to be a getaway driver. Speeding through the streets of real cities with working traffic systems, pedestrians, and motorists on the street and cops on the patrol.

You are the best driver in the criminal community. You are the Wheelman. Driver gives you total freedom while driving around town. It hit me like a monkey wrench, you can go wherever you want in the cities with no predefined tracks or anything of that sort. Now that is good gaming! How many games have you played where the cops try to chase you around and you can go through alleys, parking garages, and open playgrounds without hitting an invisible barrier? Not many. You have your gas on one button and your brake on the other.

How hard can it be? Pretty darned hard! You must master the emergency brake and it also helps to know a little about the burn out also. Whenever you need to make a sharp turn at 80 MPH the emergency brake is a handy little tool.

If you have to make a quick U turn, in a tight area, the burn out button is the way to go. The graphics for Driver are just as good as any other driving game on the shelf nowadays. Driver does have some of the best reflections I have ever seen in a driving game.

There is a mission in Los Angeles where you drive a car in a thunderstorm and the road is covered in water. The road looks like a sheet of ice and it is simply impressive. While the reflections are great, the walls and backgrounds could have used a little more help. I had the opportunity to play Driver on both the Sony Playstation and on the computer and I have to admit that the game looks just about the same on either platform.

The PC version is a little bit crisper, but then again I am a little biased because I love my computer. Driver sounded great! The music was funky and the sound effects were right on the money. I kept waiting for the Barretta theme to play or to see Ponch and John cruising around on their motorcycles.
