Oh yes, I have some VERY fond memories of Driver 1 and 2. I have always been a big fan of the whole seventies car chase film type thing. Also the attitude of blacksploitation flicks and the like. To me that made the first 2 games feel very nostalgaic in many ways. It had attitude and hours worth of gameplay that I could not get tired of. When I first played the Driver series, it was like my chance to live out those types of films. I was also very found of the film-making feature that they had and would spend hours just fine tuning the replays of my chases. I was, in many ways, that series' number one fan. I cannot even begin to express my overall dissapointment of the PS2 entries in the series. It had the potential of being something like Midnight Club 3 except with REALISTIC driving physics. Something like that would keep me entertained for hours on end!
Sadly, Reflections is not that intuitive and in touch with what the gamers want. Perhaps a new company will come along and tap into this idea with endless potential and do it right with a brand new franchise. One can only hope that the appeal for such a game is realized still.
