Driver 2

Slip behind the wheel of a muscle car and shake off relentless cops through sunbaked city streets, alleyways, and highway on-ramps.

The first thing you notice in Driver 2 is how the city feels alive, not just a backdrop. Traffic doesn't ignore you—other cars swerve, honk, and sometimes crash right into your lane because you cut them off. That's the kind of chaos that keeps every mission tense. You're not just following a GPS arrow; you actually have to read the streets, remember which shortcut dumps you behind the diner, and decide whether to take the ramp or risk the red light. I kept getting caught on the same damn intersection because I refused to use the handbrake. Big mistake. Once you learn to tap the e-brake into a corner and power out, the whole game changes. The police AI is aggressive but fair—they'll ram you, box you in, and call for backup if you linger. My favorite moment was dodging a roadblock by bouncing off a parked taxi, then watching two cop cars pile into each other behind me. That's pure Driver 2. Don't expect a racing sim. This is arcade action with weighty cars that drift when you push them. The damage system means every scrape matters, so reckless driving has consequences. But that's the fun: you're always weighing risk against speed, and the city gives you just enough room to be clever.

Keyboards

Use the handbrake for tight corners, but don't overdo it on straightaways—you'll lose too much speed. Memorize the map shortcuts. There's almost always a sneaky alley behind the diner or a parking garage ramp that skips two blocks. Keep your speed up when you hear sirens. Slowing down even a little lets cops box you against the curb. Watch your damage meter. A few hard hits will turn your car into a brick that won't accelerate. Change routes every mission. Some streets are patrolled more heavily, and cops learn your habits if you repeat the same path. Use parked cars as cover when you need to lose a tail—wait behind one until the patrol passes, then peel out.
