Driver: San Francisco

Driver: san francisko is a unique game in its genre. The game has one mechanic that greatly expands the gameplay compared to other races - moving into the bodies of other drivers.

Are you losing the race? No problem, crash into your rivals by getting into oncoming cars. Need to stop the car? Hit it with a car in the oncoming lane. This is a truly unique game in terms of gameplay.

Also, I just love the dialogue in this game, the characters are constantly making jokes, and they’re really funny.

The game's plot is good, but short. This game is definitely worth trying.

Reflections finally realized that there was no need to chase GTA, but to take and develop the idea of ​​the first part of the game, where the main element was drive and non-stop driving, seasoned with an excellent physical model of the car’s behavior on the track. More than 150 licensed cars, a large San Francisco where there is something to do, fortunately, interesting and varied tasks as well as multi-mode multiplayer contribute to this.

The game is very interesting in terms of the plot, the physics of the cars deserves special attention, the graphics and lighting on the PC version are pleasant and really delight the eyes. And most importantly, it is very well optimized, it even runs on a Pentium D with 3GB of RAM and 512MB of video memory, naturally at a high graphics preset and a resolution of 1280 by 720. The game is very suitable, you can enjoy it for days.

The history of this game can be described in two words: undeservedly forgotten.

Thank God that Martin Edmondson returned to Reflection (already in Ubisoft Reflections) and showed how to make games in the Driver series.

I was satisfied even in 2024, and it’s hard for me to imagine what kind of game it looked like in the year of release. So that you understand how much I liked it, I completed platinum 6 times and set a record on the task blast from the past (whoever understood it understood it) in 46 seconds.

The game is AWESOME, there are a lot of cars, the graphics are great, the plot is quite unusual, the graphics for 2013 are awesome (and look good now), there is multiplayer, the gameplay is special, you can inhabit other drivers, which helps in pursuits and races, you can, for example, crash into an enemy through a car in the opposite direction .
