Stuntman on the PS2 was a Driver game secretly. The Stuntman even looks like Tanner.
Debate. Is Stuntman on the PS2 part of the Driver Series?

I disagree. It was never meant to be a Driver game. Yeah, there's quite a few references to Driver in there, but it's still a unique game.

I don't consider it a part of the Driver series. My theory is they were testing out how the PS2 would handle their rendering and/or physics engine, and to gather valuable experience in developing video games for the console. Ultimately reaching the main goal of developing Driv3r of course, which was sadly a bit of a flop.
But yeah, that's what I think. They used a lot of assets from their previous games too. There was a trailer with Pink Lenny in it too. Doesn't mean it's a Driver game though.

Blah blah blah, same engine as Driv3r and DPL. Blah blah blah, reused assets from Stuntman in Driv3r and DPL. Blah blah blah, Driver 2 cutscene models in some Stuntman cutscenes. There, I made it simple for you.

Look for mark 0:37. Pink Lenny should be there sipping on some coffee.

That Chevy G-series/GMC Vandura van is also from Driver 2. Seen in the CS where the thugs go into the gas station at night. It's been changed a bit however.

Uh, yeah. Didn't you just see it?
Let me guess, you're going to say it's fake next, when it's actually a beta cutscene.
