Advantages: easy to play

Disadvantages: story could be better

Driver: Parallel Lines for the PS2 is a third person driving/racing game and was released in 2006 and is the fourth game in the Driver game series. The game is only single player.

The main character you play is TK ( The Kid) who is a get away driver for New York City crime ring and it starts in 1978, as the game goes on you soon get arrested for kidnapping and murdering a Colombian drug lord and sentenced to serve 28 years in prison. You get released in 2006 and you are out to get revenge on the people who set you up.

The actual game play feels and looks very much like Grand Theft Auto. There is over 30 levels to play, over 80 different vehicles to modify including cars, bikes and trucks you can modify most things from paint work to nitrous boosters or bullet proof glass, you can also test drive on a special track any modifications you make.

The soundtrack is pretty good as well and there is a decent selection of songs to choose from.

Controls/Graphics -

The controls for the game are pretty easy to use and the handling when driving is fairly easy. The graphics for a pc game are not really that good and could have easily been improved.


Difficulty

The AI is pretty good and the game itself is pretty hard to complete.

Value for Money -

A game that is very similar to Grand Theft Auto but is still fun to play and a decent improvement on the other games in the series. The game is pretty well written and the story is pretty good. With plenty of vehicles to choose from and modify is there is plenty of options and always something different to do.

My rating 6 out of 10

Summary: easy game to play with decent story line
