The simplistic, relatively linear stories of the GTA series contrast with the open-world setting while Driver: San Francisco goes back and forth in time and plays a number of tricks on the player, throwing unpredictable twists and turns from every direction. Driver: San Francisco has been widely accepted by gamers as a great game in its own right rather than a runner-up to Grand Theft Auto.ĭriver: San Francisco has made a number of pushes forward in the area of storytelling in an open-world game. Driver: San Francisco is no longer playing catch up. As of the release of GTA3, Driver because sort of a second-tier crime-sim series, always playing catch up to the industry-shattering revelations of Rockstar's signature series.
The game innovates on previous installations in the series, offering greater freedom of movement and some exciting action possibilities along the hilly streets of the City of Brotherly Love.
