Tearing through four major American cities, you have to uncover the dirty dealings of the Castaldi family, but commit any kind of traffic felony, and the cops will soon be on your tail. So start the car.
The streets of San Francisco and Miami are yours, as you tear around in a sleek black American muscle car. At the very beginning of Driver you are invited to perform several tricky manoeuvres in an underground car park, in order to impress the mob. It's just like taking a driving test...for maniacs!
Other modes include hair-raising chases in which you have to outrun one or more police cars, a deceptively difficult pursuit mode in which you race after a designated car and try to ram him, and training mode, so you can brush up on your technique. Add to this a film editing function, save replay facility and a darn funky sountrack, and you could possibly create the greatest car chase of all time unless the cops catch you first.
