1:24 This billboard also features the infamous yellow Buick GSX, which was Tanner's car in Miami in early phases of developement, and can be seen in Euro Demo 43.

I like both, PC version is what i played the most in my childhood but even then PS1 version has its charm.and despite being a bit simplier in most ways it feels more finished and stylized. It looks nicer for most part, despite PC versions attempt at being "HD" early 3D game.

Yea, definitely right pc more good hd

3:29 - So there's kinda a reason why the boats in the PS1 game are solid. Before the release, Driver originally had a 'drowning' system where the water could wreck your car. You could only drive so far but in some cases you could get to a boat before 'Game Over' triggered.

PC Version has "sinking animation" too but the car didn't sink it's floating on the water. There is only one spot i know.. it's near to the small bridges in Miami. In PS1 the sinking spots are LA on the beach and near Brooklyn Bridge in New York. In SF and Miami i didn't found

@Kacpa2 Ай бұрын

Many of these things are result of Driver PC version being based on older build.of ps1 game and being stuck longer in development just to get to playable state. I think they just did not consider what was most likely late additions to PSX version. Focus was on making it unique and "more hi-detail".

@Don_Ramiro 20 күн бұрын

IIRC, The PC version was actually the OLDER (and first) version. They switched the development to PS1 because of the better selling expectations, and released the game there first (1999) and later they finished and released the PC version (2000)

3:41 I just realise that boats reflection on water are just an upside down 3d model underwater...

@Weylmes Ай бұрын

It's even more noticable if you manage to go outside the map in New York !

@KattFisken Ай бұрын

It was a very common method for reflections at the time. It's an effective technique. You can see the models clipping trough the seabed but most people probably wouldn't see that unless they go out of bounds.

5:57 And the reason why that is, is the front ends texture quality is actually lower than psx's. Both games have the same texture quality (with a few exceptions where pc's is a bit higher). PC just has more colors per texture than PSX which makes it look higher quality.

@Kaytomasu Ай бұрын

iirc the "You can not drive the car when the engine is on fire" is only because the damage is full, otherwise it's just a visual effect that doesn't change anything to the car

I legit never passed the very first mission in the garage. 💀💀💀

That music track in the garage is the best in the game though so swings und roadabouts. 😂

Los Angeles has also 4 tracks in the PS1 version. For Night and Day. But the Day tracks plays on some Undercover Missions.

All the cars in PS1 looks better. The water in PC is clear.

@Kacpa2 Ай бұрын

There are many more traffic cars and cars in general on PC you can also play with amy of them plus bonus cars in any city. So Buick Skylark from Miami in new york for example.

@Don_Ramiro 20 күн бұрын

I don't agree. For me the "Superfly Car" is way better on PC

Great comparison video. I'd say the PS1 3rd person camera looks better on older screens too. Seeing all that road behind your car is just wasted space on the PC camera. PS1 view is way, way better.

@AuToMaNiAk005 Ай бұрын

If you don't like the chase camera in the PC version, you can customize it by editing the Game.exe (1.66 MB): Offset 0009E66B: angle (4-byte float, 1.0 by default) Offset 0009E687: distance from the car (4-byte float, 1.0 by default) Offset 0009E860: vertical position (4-byte integer, 1024 by default) Offset 000A041D: zoom (4-byte float, 384 by default) NOTE: Decreasing zoom may cause clipping issues. In my recent widescreen fix I've changed the clipping instruction to access a value from *00147064* offset.

@Weylmes Ай бұрын

The camera for the PC version is actually customized thanks to your videos ! I am aware about the clipping issue so the value i put back in the day was the best i could get without issues.

For me, the only thing that really bothers me of the PC version is the soundtrack. Wish we could have the dynamic calm/chase music system, with the amazing tracks composed by Allister Brimble

Does this game have some serious frame rate issues when played on a PS2 for anyone else? I found this game and tried to play it the other night, but it's unplayable in certain missions because it bogs down hard on my console.

@Victor_2000s Ай бұрын

Fun fact, Driver have a iOS port made by Gameloft, possibly can be played on TouchHLE emulator.

@Don_Ramiro 20 күн бұрын

Yep. And it's based on the PC version mostly. Bud sadly, it misses a lot of the good things the PC version had, mainly the car selection for Take a Ride

@Victor_2000s 20 күн бұрын

@@Don_Ramiro I think was due of storage limits, some missions got removed to makes the game shorter.

@Don_Ramiro 20 күн бұрын

@@Victor_2000s I don't think it was the issue, because the cars are still in the games files (you can still play with them by modifying the mission script files, like you could also do in the PC version). All they had to do, is add a simple menu for choose the car in Take a Ride after beating the game (like the PC version did)

@Victor_2000s 20 күн бұрын

@@Don_Ramiro The cars can be present but the storage limit are the problem, the early iPhone had lower memory compared to the modern ones, so that should made them to delete the car selection because the phone can't load them like used on PC version.

@Don_Ramiro 20 күн бұрын

@@Victor_2000s I'm telling you, it isn't a issue about a storage limit, but to program a simple 'car selection screen' for take a ride (which should already be present, since this port is based of the PC one). Like I said before, if you edit the mission script files, and change the value regarding the player's car (its called "PlayerCarType 0", with the 0 being the default car for Miami), it works and the game LOADS the car representing the value you wrote.

What, no bandit pursuers? In PS1 version, they are a legitimate threat (The President's Run, anyone?). In PC version, they're a minor inconvenience at best due to their tendency to flip while changing lanes while pursuing you. Not even turning, JUST CHANGING LANES. As for what they are at worst, I, for one, don't even care to count how many times I had to restart "Bait For A Trap" in particular due to the pursuer flipping while trying to pursue me from the get-go. You need to lead him to point B but you can't because he's turned over now, and if that's not annoying, I don't know what is. TL;DR: bandits in Driver PC SUCK compared to PS1.

@umarqarni2277 Ай бұрын

Definitely not, Driver1 on PC looking better gameplay because has it has options paused menu different than less ps1. This different between vehicle in Maimi PlayStation1 and PC 1971 Chevrolet Chevelle Malibu vehicle is PlayStation1 .... 1972 Buick Skylark is PC.
