GTA Clone? Nope. The best driver yet....
Although you so play as someone from Tanner (TK) which leaves you wondering what has happened to Tanner (It is actually revealed to you in this game) it is a very impressive game which makes you forget that Driv3r existed.
The graphics are great (better than GTA:SA) in-game and in the cinematic parts. They are smooth and very well textured and have great detail.
The difficulty is actually (as it says) just right and makes you forget the fear of what Driv3r was like. You will complete this ona and still have a healthy controller after as you will not get frustrated at it.
The music actually changes, for eg, when you are in 1978, you get 1970s music (which in my opinion, is great, and they put the right songs on as well) then in 2006, you get the music you have today.
While you are playing the game, you have the freedom of free-roam. People say this is copying GTA and that Driver is more turning into GTA. Well, I don't think so. They have massive differences like the cars handle more realistically than GTA, better graphics, better crashes, not as bad in blood terms, better car chases, driving and shooting much better than GTA and you can You can mod you car better than GTA.
Once you complete the game, you still have a lot of extras to do, such as find all 100 stars (which you get by jumping up ramps etc) and doing side-missions. You can also mod you precious car.
Overall, if you like driving mission games, then you will love this. If you are not, then you have no idea what you are missing. Do not watch a person play this also, YOU have to play this yourself.
