A "Terrible" Old PC Game Vs Modern Hardware - Driv3r
Вставка
- Опубліковано 14 лют 2020
- Today we're doing something different. Rather than seeing how well old hardware runs modern PC games, we're looking at how an old PC game runs on newer hardware. This particular game was a well-known glitch-fest back in the day, so I was fully expecting this to be a disaster. And in a way it was.

Thanks for watching :) - Наука та технологія
I loved this game as a kid, driving around the map trying to find secret cars was amazing
This game, much like driver 2 had awesome secrets. Random switches that revealed cool cars. Had so much fun playing d2, 3 and sf. Great series albeit the questionable physics and animations haha
Same, man) A great game to play being a child)
I always loved getting off the map, which was pretty easy to do.
Me too, I loved that you had different maps not only us American based. Nizza, Istanbul, Miami it was I think.
I think there's a go-kart track behind a hotel inside miami.
It's crazy how nowadays kids would probably mistake this for a gta clone found on the app store
Can you really blame them
@@koriyagay No.
@@untseac no lol
@@untseac naaah, gta was just a crappy game till gta 3, driver 2 was the first driver game were you can steal cars and shit, so yeaaa... Both are different, the "gta clone" stereotyp is stupid tbh, it's different... It's like saying every fps after doom was a clone
You could leave the car in Driver 2(2000), GTA was always a great game. Driv3r had to try to do more than Driver 1+2, since both GTA 3 and GTA Vice City were out. As was True Crime Streets of LA.
It's a pity that this game was released unfinished, if they invested a bit more time on it and polished it a bit more it could have been soo much better.
Thats what i said,it looks like early beta bro,
But,nononoooo!
Atari needed to release it fast so that it fucks up gta sa
But the sa made this game look like a clown.
I remember going around hunting the "timmy vermicelli's" you had to kill, poking fun at Rockstar and Tommy Vercetti. Oh how that panned out for them lol
Eh only fair since Rockstar put Tanner in GTA first
I remember they had him wear floaters around his arms, as you couldn't swim in GTA VC.
2:00 "Sometimes tho, nostalgia hurts."
For me is ALWAYS!
best game
I grew up not knowing Driv3r was bad, because I played it a lot. Didnt like the story mode, but I loved making chase replays with the clunky editor they implemented. I was more than happy just letting my imagination run
Saaaaame. All I did was run from the police. Sooo much fun.
I had this on PS2 back in the day. notoriously difficult from what i remember, controls were jank.
I ended up just free roaming through istanbul on a bike most of the time, seeing what chaos i could cause.
Same. I was just going on free ride in nice, and just causing as much destruction I could. The aiming was bad but the driving was amazing. I would also play the survival mini game only because the police ai there didn't give a single fck and was just hitting you at the speed of light. I know its a bad game but I don't care. It did it's job at entertaining me, in it's own way.
I returned it to the shop the same day. I had it Preordered for months too and was looking forward to it so much. Instead we got hot trash
I got stuck in Nice, I really wanted to unlock Istanbul ;_;
@@JulianBo188 There were cheat codes to unlock everything.
I had a similar experience with The Getaway.
Man i can feel a lot of sadness from your voice i hope that everything thing will be fine after this storm keep it going man ❤️
It's not even bad
I used to play this a a kid, but mostly to crash cars because the damage models were friggin awesome for the time.
Same XD the driver series has amazing damage models. Especially driver pararel lines.
@@pengenkaya9977 in driver sf was fun to crash small cars with a truck.
My buddy is in love with Driv3r, honestly scores dont matter even buggy games are good.
Driv3r is honestly one of the best games of my childhood , I remember playing this game with my dad back in the day , gotta love it.
Me: mom can we get GTA?
Mom: No, we have GTA at home
GTA at home:
Slifer this game had much better driving physics than GTA San Andreas. If it wasn’t rushed it would be far more superior!
nah Driver PL is the GTA at home.
@Nvidia RTX2080ti no,its graphics were better and good.also it had Hollywood like presentation.
Be quiet peasent. Driver is older than you
@Nvidia RTX2080ti Cutscenes, Portrayal of Characters (might not be as good as San Andreas but still), Great Story
Also Driver introduced Director's mode way before Gta 5
RandomGamingHD: Modern hardware means GT 210
Okey...
It should be at least GTX 750Ti tbh
You should try Scarface: The World is Yours. It is impossible to run that game at stable framerate.
really? I played through that game about a year ago and don't remember framerate being much of an issue. Great game though.
Just run it on windows xp
If you need to run it on win 7 or newer
Need to mess around with D3doverrider and task manager
@@suhas-qw4nu especially to change affinity in task manager for more stable , but it still doesn't guarantee stable framerate
@@Andreas5664 it did for me
Run the game with only 1 core affinity + use corrupted graphics fix + disable vsync = good framerate, but even then it's a terrible game
The title of this video should've been this:
A game called "Driv3r" vs. AMD's so-called "Driver".
Sam K. AMD is good but there so called “drivers” is shit
The game feels like it was unfinished!
Driver 3 was great for its time I thought. I played the story mode through the end. The last mission was actually pretty difficult. It was right on the edge of games still being a challenge and I miss that era.
I loved this game on PS2. Downloaded it a few weeks ago on PC, and immediately uninstalled it.
Why tho? it's still good.
@@yiannis777-l9c The commands are a pain in the ass, really! Extremely unoptimized.
@@gordon-ale4463 If you're talking about the key commands then you can change them in the options, it takes like 6 minutes.
Alessandro Del Casale He mentioned it at 3:40 like Γιάννης Σίγμα said.
Alessandro Del Casale try the xbox version
Driv3r is one of my all time favorites, alongside Driver 2. I've been playing both games since I was a little kid and I still do.
I used to love that game back in the ps2 days idc what the critics say
I played it on the xbox and I enjoyed it a lot
I loved this game me and my cousin loved playing this game the map was awesome
@@Pinguzxd the Europeans map were my favorites
@@manolinmero same loved the Italy one
@@Pinguzxd
There was an Italy map?
Atari(Infogrames ) was a garbage developers from back in the day. I read in gamasutra a few years ago how they bought the Atari name from Hasbro(who owned it after the Tramel Atari went under in 1996) and renamed themselves Atari. They then went on a shopping spree buying game studios and giant developers like GT Interactive, Accolade, Ocean, Gremlin......only to push out unfinished games, subpar products and further destroy the Atari name. Driver IP was one of their many victims.
Atari wasn't a very profilic developer, it was actually a publisher
It was like bootleg Ubisoft
Neither Atari nor Infogrames were anything close to garbage back in the day, quite the opposite, actually. But, unfortunately, things tend to change (just look at EA) and, well... it all turned to crap.
Infogrames made many great games though!
@@WH250398 not by the late 90s and 2000s
Uhh. No. First Driver games? They weren't unfinished or garbage. Quit your bs.
Love your videos just cant stop watching these!
You are no longer my favourite tech youtuber, you have now been promoted to my favourite youtuber
RGinHD: "Terrible"
Me: "Budget" ($35m + $17m for extended developments)
There is still an active fan base for the game indeed!
HD Textures but also new missions, new skins, new cars, new cockpit view, new cheats,...
The nostalgia that you've experienced in driv3r in original xbox
Love your videos, there's something kinda soothing about them. Whatever is bothering you at the moment hope it goes away soon (you ain't bothering no one). Keep up the great work!
I just played this yesterday. In the first mission the cop I was supposed to follow drove straight into the ocean. My brothers were watching and we couldn't stop laughing. The utter ludicrousness of this game makes it so great
Loved driving around Nice in this game. I remember the settings as beautiful, and the handling of the cars as pretty decent. Even the soundtrack was enjoyable.
I sure miss a time when you even could enjoy somewhat "flawed" games for their various qualities. Now I'm jaded beyond repair and discard games after an hour if they don't meet my impossible standards. Sad.
It's interesting, cause I can still enjoy the sometimes very "flawed" new games (like My Summer Car), it's just that most AAA gaming has moved soo far away from what I wanted in games all the way back in the early 2000s that I just can't tolerate them anymore. So I find myself coming back to these old games to get that.
Like Driv3r. If I want an open world driving game, with ok driving physics and car damage, realistic narrow roads with traffic, set in an interesting new location (like Nice/Istanbul) that isn't just a generic US city, etc. there isn't really much that can cover that in the modern gaming world.
Everyone talking about the game but no one is talking about what you said at the end of the video. I hope you feel better soon, I can wait for the next video.
Driver was most best game in its time, my first game was Driv3r, but ofc, everyone has their own opinion, for me, this was one of the best games of my childhood and im happy bout it
i dont think you realize how accurate that city is .... everything is exactly where its suppose to be....
“My favourite is Quit Game”
Mine is uninstall. It’s a very concise mini game that requires very precise mouse movement, and I’d say it’s a very sophisticated mini game to master, especially the competitive mode.
Thanks for making such great content man, never be afraid to share or take care of yourself. We’re all human, your sincerity and honesty is what makes you such a great channel to follow 🤗
i remember getting a Semi/lorry and just driving for ages into oncoming traffic and watching the cars deform. pretty neat stuff considering this was way before GTA IV!
"New hardware vs old games"
Omg I've had this idea for so so long, but just haven't got the money to get the "new hardware" to test things on.
I know the result is gonna be obvious in most cases, but I wanna see just how overkill (or even underkill?) it's gonna be!
This exactly what I wanted. Thank you so much RGHD!
I used to play this game for hours everyday as a kid back in 2005-2006 when I got a ps2.
I remember just driving off a giant ramp all the way to the bottom of the level, watching my car roll a million times.. lmao
I distinctly remember my friend telling me all about it a lunch time in fourth grade, I always wanted to play it but never got the chance. Feel better man
The best memory i had of this game was - when you are crouched you can roll forward, and if you do it downhill a street he will bounce all the way down - similar to that bouncing you showed on the boat :D
Steve, hope you get to feeling better! Been a viewer for about 2-3 years, before your play button. Love the content, keep up the great work!
Man Driv3r bring back memories.The physics made the game :D.Yes it's not a flashy game but hella fun.It's like GTA you don't do missions you just mess around in town stealing cars and messing with cops.
The classical music was very fitting and a nice touch. I hope it returns in future videos.
I played this game so much as a kid, I remember me and my friends would take turns driving around the cities. At the time it was quite an amazing game graphically and I think it still holds up to this day - this was a PS2 game!
Seeing Ur video after two years literally
Hope you feel better soon, thanks for the upload!
I just played the ps2 version although a the framerate can get very low as lots of physicals start flooding the ps2s cpu it did have cell shadded shadows and the cars had dynamic shadows which appear to be missing from your pc footage
I have so many drunken memories with this game. I still have my ps2, my memory card, and a bunch of saved scenes with crazy physics.
Two things made Driv3r good: Firstly, the glitches were hilarious! However the most important thing was that the game was HARD, properly hard. I spent hours and numerous tantrums trying to chase Calita through the narrow streets of Istanbul, but when I finally did it, it felt AMAZING!
Agree
I never beat the game because of it. You really needed skill to beat that mission
Haha nice vid man!! I got that game on a game hdd with a bunch of older ones from back in the day...max paynes...gta3..vice city..nfs underground 1&2..n plenty other older titles ! Makes me wanna play around with a dual core :) Hope you get your parts soon!
I remember buying this second hand on PC for a quid about 15 years ago.. Had not read the reviews and was wondering why a game that wasn't that old was selling so cheap.. I soon found out.. Hope you feel better soon.. keep up the great work :)
I remember buying Aliens:Colonial Marines for Xbox 360 NEW the same week it was released for £4, the GAME edition with GAME exclusive content. I didn't hate it as much as everyone else seemed to, but then again, I never paid £40 for it.
The most infuriating thing is that these bugs are still present in GTA 5
I used to love this game on ps2, always played in Nice and always ended up driving up to that town on the hill through all those small streets!! Keep up the good work!!
Dude i was hooked when i realised i could steal a bus! ... "What is this sorcery?" I thought. The giggling 15 year old that was myself proceeded to rip someone out of said bus, give them the good one two and carried on driving within the limits. Stopping at imaginary bus stops picking up imaginary folk, pulling a two hour shift as an imaginary bus driver ... Take me back!
I remember playing this game when I was a kid, it was so fun I really love the car physics I think it’s solid. The game itself feels empty and dead. You should make a video about Driver parallel lines its my favorite ps2 game.
Get well soon! I love each and every single video of you!
Hope you're feeling OK. You videos are always the first I play when I get on UA-cam, even before Linus and Jay. Your videos make my day! Keep it up your work is appreciated by your true fans.
I remember this was incredibly hard and the shooting mechanics were absolutely horrendous. But like everyone here including yourself I can overlook it all because of the pure nostalgia
I always felt if this game was actually finished before release it would have been one of the greatest
I like this kind of content! Maybe we'll find some hidden gems if you make a series like this
i have this though when you try using a gamepad the controls mess up and you have to reinstall
whens the next setup review?! Massive fan btw ;)
#OldGamesVsNewPCHardware do it
Read the fucking title lmao.
@@jayrodriguez439 He clearly means do more of these.
What speed does your ryzen 1600 run at I'm trying to overclock mine to 4ghz I managed it once but then lost my settings and cant remember how I did it 😞
I remember spending countless hours in the evening in my early teens playing this game. Not even progressing through missions, just exploring and messing about. Simple times.
1:55 I love how the buy button is red as if they are trying to stop u from buying it
When my dad handed this game to me for our ps2, I fell in love with it for some odd reason. I didn’t understand what it was about, but I just liked driving around.
That's what The Driver series is all about essentially. Just enjoy driving and fooling around with the cops.
When you're a kid you could care less of what you're playing as long as you're having fun. As you grow older you realize that some games were or are a waste of time with playing and you could be doing something more productive instead.
@@bimmer8602 you could say that about movies, tv, music, and books. All growing up does is make you take on more responsibilities.
Unless you are saying that some games are bad, but when we were young we were too naive to care what game we were playing.
Hope you're doing alright mate, we don't come here only to see reviews you know
Video was great and gave me a few chuckles and you are right in that awful can be fun. World could use a few more laughs so yeah got to play this sometime. As for your health or whatever hope you are feeling better soon and I get why you worry about putting a video out and the whole world and this commerce thing but take care of yourself.
The video editing mode was so much fun as a kid!
Hey RGHD, I've been wondering how much turning off the telemetry in Windows 10 via OOSU10 can affect higher and lower end systems
I've personally tried it many times and it makes many games run much better on my laptop and I've gained battery life from it
Hope you feel better sending some Love from upstate NY :) PS: Making people laugh is a art that is under rated and I laughed my ass off!!!! TY
I don't remember it being a bad game, I actually loved playing it. In the first town you can sit in a draw bridge booth messing with traffic and the cops, it was quite fun.
You can really see the influence this game had on Cyberpunk 2077
I don't know why this channel is so good, it just is.
Dang, he was really showing that boat just how dominant he is with that T-Pose Dance @ 5:45..I spent sooooo much time playing the original Driver on Playstation when I was a kid. The tutorial was brutal, lol 😆
Out of respect for the memory of Anton Yelchin, I'll refrain from making a tasteless joke about running yourself over.
You could take a look at the early 2000s game "Buzzing Cars", it's interesting by virtue of being so dang obscure. It got released outside of Europe as "Wild Wheels" and was pretty much impossible to find any info about it with that name.
Now, it can be downloaded for free from the dev's site along with the Blupi (Speedy Eggbert) franchise.
That's bring some memories, specially that pro only tutorials in one of drivers series. '-'
Any update on the rx 5700 xt issues that u were having?
What are your thoughts about parallel lines?
Thanks for the video and get well soon! I've always wanted to play Driver 3 but never got around it. Had Driver 1 for PC and Driver 2 for PS1 and loved them both EXCEPT for that stupid first mission in the car park...
excellent game driv3r with the keyboard layout and 4k patch works great , its the most fun broken game of all time
Enhanced keyboard controls and 13ags widescreen patch makes the game a lot better
I still play Driver 3, I think people are just being too harsh, the game is just good, and the glitches are something I actually love about the game because to me it makes it more enjoyable, I felt the same way about True Crime: Streets of LA with the fact that I can easily glitch out of the map and explore a world that is even bigger than intended with fully functional traffic and scenery. I guess I just have a strange thing for glitchy open-world games and I just love them! Thank you for making this video, it really brings back *LOADS* of memories, I remember one time when I was 8 years old I asked my mom if I could play the game but ever since it was rated mature and I always asked that question she smashed the PS2 disc and threw it away, I remember taking it out of the trash a burying it in the dirt with a cardboard tombstone. I just realized how big this comment is, Jesus Christ... ok I think I'm done now *LMAO!*
I swear we had the same childhood lol loved this game on ps2 my favorite was driver parallel lines I wanna see that next
haha my g always got throwbacks from the past. 😁 did you ever play xiii
So was there ever a fan patch/mod that fixes all or most of these issues?
Hope you get well soon.
As for the Game: I loved the Driver Games when I was young, while they did have (lots of) flaws, there were also lots of ambitious things in them. For example, the Vehicle deformation was quite present during a time where many Games decided to completely cut them out.
Oh man, that opening.
Storm Dennis and Jorge seem like years ago now!
Driv3r was my childhood
BRO I LOVE DRIV3R.
I REMEMBER TURNING MY PS2 ON AT 6 AM BEFORE SCHOOL AND HEARING THE 1ST MISSION SONG
I can't belive this game have better physics in the water than CP2077
fantastic lookback, i've recently been playing through Vampire masquerade bloodlines again after all the hype for the long awaited sequel.
I've played Driv3r like 7 years ago on PS2 and it was briliant. Also Driver San Francisco was still good old Driver under hood. We need another great Driver game.
I got Fallout 3 working fine (if you don't believe me it's on my channel) all you have to do is go into a file and limit it to only us 2 cores maximum of your CPU
Every once in a while I get nostalgic and instantly this games main menu/setup wizard themes play in my head.
I remember wanting it SOOO bad as a kid, circa 2006 when I had my first PC that barely ran NFS Undergound, I first played this at my friends house and asked him to let me install it too and he didnt, so being an annoying kid i nagged my ma about it and we finally went out to buy it, when I told the clerk I wanted the Driver game he gave me the then newer Driver game which was Parallel Lines, which I only discovered after installing it on my PC.
Nevertheless, I finally gave it back and replaced it with the good old Driv3r, still got the boxed PC version to this day, even with all the bugs and odd gameplay, I loved it for it tried to be and for the feeling it gave out.
One had to experience this game back then to fully comprehend the feeling.
Thank you for the video.
You can upload to cginhd in times like this, that channel is underrated imo.
Didn't you use to have a 3600? What happened to that?
Love your content btw
here is a good game: XIII, is pretty good in graphics and gameplay, very underrated one
on foot gameplay sucks tho
Driving down the highway in Istanbul with Infinite Mass was my favourite thing to do as a kid, I loved this game
