Driver San Francisco

Date played: July 17th
Platform: PC
Time played: 60 minutes
Session fun rating: 8/10

Side quests, activities and dares made up all my time playing today. This game is really fun to just drive in. Lots of checkpoint events, chase, smash and crazy dares were all I did. One thing I really love about this game is all the great licensed music. I was surprised the great song choices they have in there and it really helps set the mood for the game. I also should mention that this game has real, licensed cars and I've realized that this makes the whole game more believable. It almost feels more real than GTA4 at times. I've opened up a large portion of the map now and going back to garages is a little annoying because it can be very far sometimes but it's not a huge problem.
