Looking forward to DRIV3R?
 

I'm really looking forward to DRIV3R coming out. Ridley Scott has produced a short film that ties into the game. The scenes from the game along with the live action ones make this film look great. It's called, "Run the Gauntlet" and has trailers at DRIV3R Site. I think this game looks great. Agree?

Can't wait to play it, i just hope it isn't insanely difficult as the earlier ones.

Is there an official release date on it yet?

edit: EB and Gamestop show it being released 3/23/2004

:)

It looks great, but the previews have been relatively unenthusiastic. You know when a preview ends with "Though it's still visibly got a lot of work left to be done to it..."

Only a month and a half away from release date. I'll have to wait for reviews.

Looks too mature for me. :(

According to the developers, they said they learned a lesson when they made Stuntman too hard that they made a concerted effort not to let that happen again. I can't wait for this game.

I would be looking forward to it a little more, if it wasn't now called "DRIV3R". When did this happen!?

As it stands, it could be 3 fast 3 furious for someone like myself...

j00 better not be h@ting!

this made me dizzy

Didn't they learn from Shadow Man: 2ND COMING ?

The name sucks.

If I get a good framerate and a survival mode, I will be ecstatic.

Bah. Gamers who complain about Stuntman being "too hard" need to sell their consoles to someone who will get some use out of them :p

I love Stuntman BECAUSE it is so damn hard. The fact that a game can be that difficult and still keep you coming back for more abuse speaks volumes about how good it is if the player can handle it. (BTW, I got 100% on every stunt. Eventually :) )

I hope DRIV3R includes a difficulty setting so I can ramp it up to Stuntman's level. Then everybody would be happy.

I want to play this, but man, that name is reallly stupid. I didn't know marketing types like to be l33t as well.

he said man this game is down with the leet people, kick ass lol rofl

You mean they didn't learn that lesson from Driver 1, where you pretty much couldn't get through the last level without using cheat codes?

Yah, I still have not beaten that level (I hate using cheats). I was really close a few times, but damn, it is so frickin hard (but fun nevertheless, except the re-load times).

I beat Driver, Driver 2 and Stuntman without ever using a single cheat code. Loved every frustrating, controller-throwing minute of all three :D

It took me about 50 times, but I beat the 1st Driver without cheat codes as well. Hell, it's like a badge of honor for me. I hope that Driver 3 offers some more of this toughness.

Is the final level the one where you escort the president to the parking lot? I remember beating that... after having tried it dozens of times... leaving it for a few months and finally coming back to complete it. IIRC it was about 4% skill, 98% luck, and the rest simply bloody mindedness. ;)

I just hope DRIV3R doesn't make you pass the "driving test" :rolleyes:

Yeah really....how often is Tanner gonna have to prove himself :D

Yes, the final level was indeed "Mr. President". There was a lot of luck involved with that mission, but the 4% of skill did make quite a difference in beating it.

I, too, could do without the driving test. But if I must beat it in order for some solid Driver 3 goodness, so be it.

So... in Driver 3... what I've read indicates that it's got run and gun elements like GTA3... Is this the case? Is it not just car/driving missions? Can we get out and shoot people and walk around and stuff? True Crime done right? Could it be?

We can indeed get out and shoot people.

Well... gimme it already then... I wanna play.

Too Bad... Driver 3 is delayed till SUMMER :(
