Some missions require you to do things on foot, which forces you to deal with the game's lackluster targeting system. You'll get into races, collect packages, and even steal a car, fit it with a bomb, and then drive it back to where you found it so the owner will receive an explosive surprise-unless he played GTAIII, in which case he'll probably see this now-ancient mission design coming from a mile away. Most of them are, as you might expect from a game called "Driver," focused on operating a motor vehicle. Instead, you'll follow the story path by taking on a variety of regular missions. But considering that the cars are as disposable as you'd expect from a game like this, spending money on engine upgrades seems like a waste of time, and consequently earning money usually isn't your goal. There are a few side missions, like races and repo-man jobs, which earn you money to be spent on car upgrades.

The gameplay in Driver puts you in a big, open city that's broken up into three areas by bridges. It's a potentially interesting premise that falls apart because none of the individual characters are very compelling or likeable in either era. TK gets out of the joint in 2006 with revenge on his mind, and the story picks up from there. This fast-forwards the game to the present day. This being the late '70s, "making it big" eventually turns out to mean "starting a cocaine empire." But, as these things normally go, stuff doesn't pan out quite so well for TK, and he gets locked up for 28 years. You're pretty good behind the wheel of a car, and you quickly catch on with a crew of criminals looking to make it big. You, as an 18-year-old named TK, have moved to New York City in search of excitement. Add to that some pretty drab mission design, and you've got a title that simply can't add up to a game worth playing.ĭriver: Parallel Lines has a very 'Grand Theft Also' feel to it.
The characters fall flat, and the story is uninteresting. It's almost completely uninspired and devoid of the little things that make these sorts of games entertaining. Not that sketchy control is the game's only problem. This Grand Theft Auto clone suffers even more because it's been shoehorned onto the Wii and is saddled with some annoying control shortcomings. Driver: Parallel Lines wasn't a good game when it came to conventional consoles over a year ago, and putting it on the Wii hasn't helped matters at all.
