Nick Robinson cool
Nick Robinson the safest way was the subway gift card lol
Dang Nick if I knew about this I would have mailed it to you but then we wouldn't have gotten subway so never mind
Wanted to tell you that me and my brother still play car tag in split screen in driver San Fransisco to this day whenever hes in town and its still so fun to swap into a ramp truck right before he ramps it which obviously counts if anyone reads this you need to try the multiplayer in this game its some of the most fun I've ever had.
I’m surprised you didn’t put the link in the description
Nick Robinson in order to make it playable I had to book a ticket to Japan
ubisoft pulled the plug on a game about a guy in a coma.
Hmmm 🤔
That’s deep.

What if as soon as you entered the Subway one of the workers said “You better not be trying to buy Driver San Fransisco.”

I've worked on this game. I had no idea it was delisted. I don't think I can overstate how much blood, sweat and tears the dev team shed to get this game out. Learning it was delisted hurts. Learning that someone actually cares enough about this game to voluntary step into Subway makes all the difference to me. Just signed your petition. And thank you, Nick.
Honestly... as a non racing fan...
i love this game.
Story and mechanics are what hooked me in.
@@johnynoway9127 I'm not a racing fan either but yeah, absolutely, the story and mechanics are beautifully weird.
If you were on the dev team you would have been aware of the basic fact you were making a game filled with other people’s licensed content (the cars) and so it would be based on a limited term contract the inevitable end of which is the game being delisted/not available for sale in it’s original form.
@@fioredeutchmark Well, 2011 is a long time ago and not every dev worked in the licensing department and is aware of the specific contracts with each car manufacturer. But I didnt come here to proof anything, or convince anyone, I came here to thank Nick for doing what he is doing.

Game stop has it for digital download. Regular for 19.99 and deluxe for 24.99

My anxiety spiked when I realized you were going to ask for the exact dollar value you needed on the Subway card rather than something reasonable like $15.
That was the most Nick Robinson moment in the video
Same. When he said it was to buy a video game I cringe skipped the next 5 seconds. Braver man then I.
I was worried he wouldn't actually ask for the exact amount tbh. I'd be concerned with the site taking the total on the card rather than the exact sum required eating an entire $15.
Same. Just put like 20$ on it dude....lol

Insanely random, but the guy sitting down eating the sandwich at 8:13 was one of my coworkers at Infinity Ward.

I have never played this game, never heard of this game, and i’m absolutely blown away by the innovation of this game. I wish I could have played this on release
The graphics still hold up pretty well for being over a decade old, especially with how well they did the tire smoke. It's backwards compatible on Xbox so you can buy a used 360 disc and still play it!
I remember it coming out and remember hearing the jumping thing but the reviewers never made it clear how innovative it was and how cool the idea works with the game.

Driver San Francisco isn't just a game... it's nostalgia, the very thing you would love to play again and again, years later.
I completely agree with you.
this game is a nostalgic memory. not just because it was good. but because of the franchise it was built off... i still remember being a kid. and finally beating the tutorial for the first driver game. i was eight. that started me down a path of racing games that made me into the car admirer i am today.

Hey piraters gotta eat too ya know lol 😂
It's good because it seems safe. Like, I wouldn't use my debit card on that website but I'd use a subway giftcard.
My guess is whoever owns the website uses the gift card codes they get in exchange for game keys to go buy food at subway.
For anyone who's curious, it's actually because Subway giftcards are actually just regular visa giftcards. They can be used to buy anything, anywhere, because they aren't actually unique or tied to internal Subway systems.
I must have spent almost 1000 hours in this game, maybe more, and I've never ever waited for something to happen so much, this masterpiece getting it's dues from fans. An absolute masterpiece, I think I can say I've used the shift mechanic in as many situations as humanly possible, and it works flawlessly everytime, the character work is on par with how much fun you can have with GTA.

Subway giftcards used to be pretty popular over the lesser side of the internet. subway giftcards were unlocked sort of (like wallgreens) its just the person had to accept the card type itself. these smaller gaming companies took on the cards as just another way to make money. I actually remember my sister asking my mom for a subway gift card thinking it was for food, so she put 50$ on it, and she ended up spending it on a chat site back in the day called imvu. Didnt realize this was such uncommon knowledge.

this is what happens when ubisoft makes a game that is actually fascinating. They cancel it.
They don't have plan for this game. No expansion plan.
It's better not to be in the market for Ubisoft. Otherwise the demand will rise for the game and sequel. Love for the game will increase. Then many people will not like, as much as they do, Assassin's Creed, Far Cry, Watch Dogs etc.
Vikas Kumar Patel they should just remake it I’m sure someone would buy that
@@Nieodemus Absolutely! Ubisoft don't want people to talk about it. They don't want attention of their players diverted from Assassin's Creed, Far Cry, Watch Dogs etc.
Vikas Kumar Patel yeah I used to play watch dogs but it’s not fun anymore they could probably restore this game though I just don’t understand why they wont
@@Nieodemus Think like this, they made both Assassin's Creed and Prince of Persia.
Many people will prefer Prince of Persia while others Assassin's Creed. Some will buy both.
Let's keep it simple for now. 2 million will buy Assassin's Creed and 2 million will buy Prince of Persia. Cost of building those game 10 + 10 = 20 million. If we take $40 as an average price, they made $160 million in revenue and $140 million in profit.
If they only made one game, people will buy 4 million copies. And they'll save $10 million dollars, time and the resources.
This is from simple economics. I can make it more complex by adding more and more franchises from Ubisoft but this is the simples way to do it.
Data+brand+feelings (if right) = profit. Don't distract your users with many different thing otherwise they won't care what you're currently doing.
I miss this game so much. Amazing video you made here 🙏
I still have the game’s soundtrack playlist saved on my phone…..shaped my music taste a lot
The only game where you can play in 2nd person.
You saw that video too
@@theilluminatimember8896 we all did
from* and yes we have seen that video too
What’s that game wit Juno again??
Me too
I was fully expecting him to fly to Japan for a gift card
Same. Surely Japan has a Subway right? I'm disappointed
yes it does even in an airport
I'm pretty sure he wouldn't go that far or otherwise this video will not be invented
He doesnt, well I guess I dont need to watch the rest...
Looool I laughed out loud
I had to ride high seas for this game because, I cannot find a pc copy. But playing this game on a 4k monitor, this game holds up even in 2022. This game deserved a sequel, it is so good.
the fact that i came over this video 1 year ago not knowing this was the game i used to play with my best friends on his ps3 back in 2014 is insane
forza
-has lame cars
-costs $60
-looks realistic
-no dialogue
driver; san francisco
-has sick mom cars
-costs $11.72
-can be bought by subway giftcards
the choice is obvious
Honestly the driving physics in Driver is one of the best mixes between simulation and arcade.
forza horzion 1 was the only great forza game, it actually had a story and wasn't a terrible nonsensical one, it felt like it had actual effort put into it
Amazing game, I played and finished it in 2013 on my Acer Travelmate 5760G :-)
You must have never played Forza horizon 3 and 4 lol

I have a friend who used to collect subway giftcards and buy them a lot, telling his parents that he was paying for subway for lunch/dinner, when in reality, he was using them on League of Legends, which apparently accepted them. I still have no idea why League of Legends would accept subway giftcards.
More likely it was some shady reseller website
@@shortcat No League just accepted Subway cards in the in-client store. It looks like they take Dollar General and CVS instead these days
@@AmericanJosh pretty clever trick by them then
@@AmericanJosh 100% can confirm, I got a lot of subway gift cards as gifts in college and would use them on league instead of sammiches. Now I've not played league in like 4-5 years, so seems like a bad investment in hindsight.
Those underpayed devs gotta eat somehow
Driver SF is my favorite childhood game, im thankful for this video 😇
I can't believe that video was made by you!
I saw it when I was 9 years old and it made me fall in love with the game!
"Enjoy" She says.
Ohhh Subway lady you have no Idea.
Funniest part, is that the site was so shady, that using a Subway gift card was probably the safest option to use for sure lmaooo....
Payments via PayPal direct you to PayPal.
Theres no information that the site will get from you other than what appears on the paypal statements.
He actually wasted more money going to subway for the gift card.
@@Interknetz but that's funny AF so thank god he bought subway gift card
Nahhh G2A is a pretty known game seller outside US
@@iago207 It was not G2A, but a similar name G2Play
That’s what I was thinking 😭😭
I swear this is one of the underrated games of all time, i was played it at 2014 and this was my first game on xbox 360, it made me want to explore more story games at that time. Really gold
Being a die hard fan of this game, with countless hours spent on split screen with friends back in the days. I’ve watch your video a while back & signed your petition for the game to have a come back.
I came back again to your video now just to say that’s it’s totally downloadable nowadays & playable for FREE without needing a subway gift card or browsing the dark web. & to my surprise, completely playable on my Thinkpad T430. Who said you need a gaming laptop ?!
Thanks again for the video
Nick's signature quote:
"Out of options, desparate, and looking for some kind of resolution, i knew what i had to do."
I have to take a trip Japan
As a last resort, I left my house and went to Subway
So I booked a trip to Japan
So I booked a flight to Tokyo Japan
Everything Ubisoft does feels like the Uplay Asspop.
Bro a - - 41% discount had me on the floor
Thank you nick… your video made me go to a game store and buy 4 copies of this to play and give to my friends
