According to ESRB, this game contains: Animated Violence
Parents should note that Driver 2 is targeted at adults. Adults will find the games attempt as serious drama laughable, but nonetheless, the dark content involving undercover cops, gangsters and drug dealers is inappropriate for young ones.
Fans of the original Driver who want more of the same action with some additional bells and whistles (like the ability to exit a car and continue on foot), will be in for a real treat. Those who disliked the original or perhaps wanted to see improvement in the series will be largely disappointed.
Fans of traditional racing games should stay away from Driver. While the premise of the game revolves around driving, the game isnt about racing.
Fans of car combat games like Twisted Metal and Vigilante 8 might like the high-speed car chases and frequent pile-up action, but may be let down by lack of variety and flair in the mundane gameplay.
Somewhere between all the gaming, Chi some how managed to finish high school and get into the New York Institute of Technology. At the same time, Chi also interned at Virtual Frontiers, an Internet software consultancy where he learned the ways of HTML. Soon after acquiring his BFA, Chi went on to become the lead Web designer of the Anti-Defamation League. During his tenure there, Chi was instrumental in redesigning and relaunching the non-profit organization's Web site.
Today, Chi is the webmaster of the American Red Cross in Greater New York and somehow managed to work through the tragic events of September 11th without losing his sanity. Chi considers GameCritics.com his life's work and continues to be amazed that the web site is still standing after the recent dotcom fallout. It is his dream that GameCritics.com will accomplish two things: 1) Redefine the grammar of videogames much the same way French film critic Andre Bazin did for the art of cinema and 2) bring game criticism to the forefront of mainstream culture much the same way Siskel & Ebert did for film criticism.
