Modding discussion for Driver: San Francisco.

Barcelona from 'Wheelman' looks so good! The game itself is pure crap, I think every one will agree with me on this point.

But the city looks fantastic!

Imagine we would fill this with some nice Driver: SF pedestrians everywhere, nice Driver: SF traffic (there's enough european cars in DSF but we would have the problem that vehicles have US specs, but let's forget this for now), then a beautiful sunny Driver: SF sky / weather and of course lots of Driver: SF objects everywhere such as bus stations and barriers and similar stuff that you can smash.

Seems like in the trailer above a lot of the city is still locked. But I love the place in the beginning, the plaza with the harbour, and then that long road with the trees. Also love the sort of highway that we get to see later!

The studio which made this game was in Newcastle, being known for some games of Test Drive series, now Pitbull Syndicate is defunct. I remember seeing the official website with a countdown back in 2009. I always wanted to buy it but i never had the chance to find it in the stores, the reviews says that the game suck but the game seems to be packed with good action, but i can't judge the game just by a gameplay video.

Yeah, that city has big potential, it has that Mediterranean feel of Nice in Driv3r, which i like.

I really think that the game is horrible (I never played it and I don't need to in order to judge it!), I mean it's clearly aimed at a very young crowd.

But whatever, the city stays fantastic. If we could just take any game and do whatever we wanted with it…

This game is rated +16 so i don't think that is aimed to kids. Even Driver and Driver 2 were rated in Europe +16. Seems that back in the day they were considered violent games. Although the level of violence of those games can't be compared to new games in the market +16, which are even more violent.

Well, then it must be aimed at retards. What the hell is wrong with this "push to the side" thing anyway? Is that meant to look cool or what… if yes, then it failed at doing so.

And Driver and Driver 2 are for me both rated +6. But then again, depends who rated them. I think I heard something about the rating being increased later on Driver 1, from 6 to 12 I think.

Maybe they didn't have enough budget to polish things of the game.

For example some estimate that GTA IV had an budget of 100 million.

MOST EXPENSIVE VIDEO GAME BUDGETS

But not always a big budget means a good game, for example Driver PL only had 1 million budget and it was a very good game.
