Top critical reviews
The most up-voted negative English reviews in our sample, quoted as written.
“Don’t buy this game, don’t fall for the pretty visuals or the nostalgia for the Driver series, because it’s not even close. What you get is a miserable mix of bugs, bland side quests, and a laughably bad story. Wait until maybe they polish…”
“Really cool how it looks with just a 12 GB size. It has an authentic feel, small-map. There's big potential in the gameplay, but the fighting feels clumsy-especially when you get hit from behind -and I found myself trying to avoid…”
