What platform would you like to play the next Driver game on? | Forums

[smiler_16]

Firstly i would just like to add that the poll is about your secondary choice of platform

But back on topic...

I am a PC gamer and i would like to play Driver 4/5 on PC because of the possibillity that there may be the oppurtunity to mod (modify) the game
and i have always wanted to play the Driver games with my own stuff on the game (such as my own custom made cars! and maybe the abillity to add extra parts to the level, like a stunt park!!).

and as the poll asks 'what system would i like to play Driver 4/5 on if i couldn't play it on my system?'
I guess i would like the PS3 because of the addition of a Blu-Ray player which the 360 and Wii dont have Plus out of the consoles, the PS3 has the best graphics, although its just a shame it cant stand up to the PC or else i would of bought a PS3 a long time ago!...

maybe they'll try harder with the PS4 hey!!.

I sai PC simply because I like the idea of modding not to mention the almost endless posibilities with the PC. Look at the sims franchise. Its AMAZING on the pc but on consoles? not so much. This is due to the lack of options. The only reason that series sold well on consoles is because the pc version has got so many fans. not mention the lack, infact no, non existant competition.

But yeah PC for the options. but the controls need to be good. none of that press space bar to go ****. I want a usb controller to be required.

i would suggest getting the 360 controller, because its made by microsoft, so 90% of newer games will support it (and that means, no more space bar rubbish!!)

If you want the wireless controller, then make sure you get the 'wireless reciever for windows' accessory! (in the UK i know you can get if from the shop known as 'GAME') and

The 360 controller is nice thanks to the handy left and right triggers, which act as very accurate gas and brakes.

I totally agree, and i guess sony do too, which is why they had copied the design... and to be honest, now i preferre the 360 controller because the PS3 controller feels too small and light weight plus the triggers on it dont have curls to hold your fingers in place (so basically your fingers will slide off after a while...), where as the 360 controller has the curls on the triggers making your fingers grip really well!.

If PC wasn't avaliable I'd get myself a PS3 and the next generation driver on it! Unfortuanatly it'll be a while until I own a next generation console because there still pretty expensive.

I defaintly wouldn't cut into getting the x360 just because it's cheaper because I personally think from what I've seen when trying them out at game shops like EB, the graphics looked a lot better on GranTurismo than it did on x360 alternative to that title.

Plus the specs of the ps3 look way better, it looks like reflections can do a lot more with it. Better processor, better video and I beileave the list goes on!

But I just want to try out the pc version, it's hard to upgrade my computer with the latest stuff but I do need it for my future occupation as a Video Editor, a Game Art Developer or whatever comes around that's related to the multimedia aspect of technology and of course it saves me from buying a next gen console ONLY to play the next driver, I bought a xbox just for Driver: Parallel Lines and I don't want to have to do it again!

and it's good to know everyones open to the modding concept of the pc version; for the millionth time I hope reflections make it more modable.

You pretty much read out my opinion in a better way than i could lol

although i had never bought a Console to get any of the Driver Games

I already had a PS2 for D3 then it got stolen, so at first i had played D:PL on my little brothers PS2 and then i got extremely hyped up when i heard UBI were buying out the Driver name, because from past experience i have seen that UBI make some of the best PC games (i never looked so much into detail when i was a console gamer so i cant really say wether it'll be good for consolers...) and they always try to release it on all platforms!! (apart from the rare exceptions like Haze... which is PS3 exclusive...)

i said ps3 simply because i own one. I dont know about my hands slipping of the controllers it never happens to me. Could i suggest washing the grease of your hands XD
