The game is just awesome !!!
Graphics and sound (engine sound as soundtrack) I find great, and what others complain about here (not realistic enough for shift and damage model) I find also excellent! A game does not need to be realistic, but should be fun! And that succeeds here without any weapons or pedestrian murders ... Have now been several Studen in story mode, online and in Spitscreen with friends behind me and just can not get enough of it.
Story Mode:
Here's just always action ... to missions found on every corner in free navigable beautifully framed San Fransico. One must constantly be on guard against the police not (such. As in GTA). The chasing a only when the rams right ... find it in other games extremely annoying that you have to drive partly vernünfig, to avoid being constantly followed (s. Mafia II). At red lights, I must stand in reality often enough ;-)
The missions just start immediately. One switcht mostly in the moving car and is right in the middle! Again compared to GTA: here you often have first 10min drive through the city, until the mission finally starts ever! And that the car did not immediately have a total loss, when I drive times against the wall, I find also super !! And even if: One click and I'm sitting in the next-propelled projectile.
By the way: There are almost only Top cars ... A pesky Seeking passendne vehicle was not needed because driving around every corner Porsche, Bentley, Audi and so :-)
Spitscreen:
My FAVORITED !! Unfortunately, most games do not have ... more Spitscreen against friends you can play then only online. But for me there is no better (games technically considered) than sitting with friends in the same room and wirlich to play together !! Talking to each other not only via headset and sometimes to be able to take if a mission is successful. With Driver SF's are to co-op the race just make fun with wechselden vehicles, or various race modes against each other!
So: An absolute top match that simply guarantees tens Studen fun !!! And for the current price just paid !!
Please note: Give me more of this type games !!!
