The game takes place a few months after the events of Driv3r. It is revealed that both Tanner and Jericho survived the shootout in Istanbul. In the game's trailer, it is revealed that since then, both men have recovered and Jericho has escaped to San Francisco, while Tanner has pursued him there. Jericho is shown being transported in the back of a prison truck, but manages to escape with a vial of acid hidden within his mouth. He overpowers the guards, and hijacks the truck. Tanner and Tobias witness this from Tanner's car, pursuing Jericho as he causes havoc on the streets of the city. Tanner ends up in front of Jericho in an alleyway, and gets pushed in front of a tractor trailer. A hard crash occurs, putting him into a coma. The game will take place in Tanner's coma dream

This game takes a really cool concept but only makes it like 60% realized. I feel like they could've done so much more interesting ideas with the coma structure but it doesn't quite hit those peaks, and what cool concepts there are don't get fleshed out enough. Also the final chapter, while cool, falls apart on a QA level.

That being said I do hope this sorta thing gets tried again with current tech to speed up the map navigation and expand the overall potential of the shift system. Also set it in a new IP, it needs the breathing room.

I love this game. Had it recomended to me by some random gamestop employee after I told him that I liked racing games (I had just completed Forza Horizon 1) and wanted something open world racing. The story is great and the ability to control any car is so cool. You could be both the cop and the criminal in a police chase. This game opens up so many posibilities. It was new innovative and awesome. Such a shame that it's basically lost to time.

I'm not sure if it's my creativity, but it's hilarious that the solution for 80% of the game's objectives is crashing into stuff. It's extra funny when you realize that you take over someone else's body to just put them in the hospital because you wanted to remove an opponent in a race.

A driving game with a genuinely unique mechanic that initially seems simple but soon changes how you think your way through levels. Too bad the online isn't available anymore to get all the achievements.

Loses a star due to the game being a little ugly looking colour wise and the music getting a little repetitive by the end

You can ride any cool car you see. Too bad the game is boring.
