As a result of his condition, our hero is able to shift his consciousness to any other person driving a car. The accident leaves Tanner in a coma, with the events of the game unfolding inside his head – not that Tanner himself is aware of this. A disastrous crash results in a massive truck ploughing into the side of our hero’s Dodge Challenger, and then the crazy stuff starts to happen. Veteran police detective John Tanner and his partner, Tobias Jones, are chasing down mob boss Charles Jericho, only for the tables to turn, forcing our crime-fighting duo to outrun a hijacked prison transport van. At the core of the experience is an arcade-like but weighty handling model that allows for rewarding, drift-heavy fun, and on top of this is a unique shifting mechanic that turns the genre on its head.įor some people the game’s concept and setup will be a little too “out there” to accept, but it’s essential to what developer Ubisoft Reflections has delivered. While Driver San Francisco might look like just another entry in the long-running open-city driving series, in which you nip about in a variety of cars, evade cops and generally cause all-manner of vehicular-based carnage, what we’ve got here is actually refreshingly original. There’s a lot to be said for offering something new.
