Driver: Parallel Lines - Free Roam Shenanigans

Just some Driver: Parallel Lines free roaming gameplay showing how much fun cruising around New York causing mischief can be! Definitely my favourite Driver game - The vehicle physics, drive-by shooting mechanics and traffic density were very impressive for 2006 standards...and still are to this day!
About Driver: Parallel Lines:

As I'm still waiting for my new PC to arrive I thought I'd upload some more nostalgic gameplays whilst I wait. This time being Driver: Parallel Lines. So many fond memories just driving around the map getting into cop chases and exploring the large open-world New York...definitely some of the best cop chases to be had in gaming at the time too. Hopefully this video shows why I love this game so much!

[@HanzFatih]

New pc wow! Can you spoil us ur new pc specs?

[@Zero._.000]

I hope your new device will be great.

[@tommyliangwei3724]

Buy a PS2 or XBOX

[@calangoraivoso9921]

The world design, the song, cars, the color filter, this game is 10/10 classic, how come this game flooped in sales and is looked down until this day?

[@Willzyyy]

I remember it doing quite well at the time, even got high-praise in the Official Xbox Magazine. I guess it came out with too many open-world competitors that year. (Scarface, The Godfather and Vice City Stories).

[@ardibetrayal3493]

If only driver 3 is like this i think they Will know this series as well

[@tareklegrand7747]

because Driver 3 gave the series a bad reputation

[@constipatedparker5879]

​@@tareklegrand7747which is why they went back to just driving in Driver SF with licensed cars

[@Victor_2000s]

Flooped because people started to avoid Driver franchise after the broken Driv3r release.

[@hamstel4540]

29:07 I played this game many times but I never knew you could do that

[@JR98GAMING]

There’s even a bodysnatcher cheat code you unlock for driving a certain mileage that lets you take over their character model after doing one of those takedowns

[@codylarue513]

Wtf I didn't either

[@StonerMarkus]

Criminally underated!!!. This game is still amazing!!!

[@edsstokes]

We can all argue that Reflections began copying Rockstar in their approach to this type of sandbox game, but remember that GTA was originally top down and the team at Reflections had the foresight to create Driver and this type of game first.

[@pastelfromgreece9603]

the reverse 180 drive-by shooting is so fun to pull off

[@mangopapaya1510]

awww how much I love the ambience!

[@GY9944]

Oooh that’s a nice surprise! I love how TJ is just grooving and vibing when he’s idle lol

[@GY9944]

@jbiehlable whoops... serves me right for commenting on videos before I even have my morning coffee lolz

[@Prodbywookies2k22]

I prefer TK at This point

[@juanmiguelveneracion3910]

The closest game that resembles taxi driver

[@elmandarin1002]

The movie I'm guessing? because it also had a canceled game around this time

[@mkvector9539]

This game uses a lot of Driv3r assets and physics engine.

[@Gravetokk]

Driv3r physics are insane

[@Daysaturate]

God this game is such a throwback, glad to see some surprise gameplay of it!

[@MerlautJones]

I watched a retrospective for this game earlier then you upload this...no coincidence!

[@CostlyFall7064]

You can switch time periods after you complete the game. I prefer 2006 era (Modern setting).

[@Willzyyy]

I much prefer 1978 for free roam and driving around. 2006 is better for the gritty revenge story.

[@billrootes-composersongwri5552]

One of the best games ever

[@acervoalborghetti]

I was in my teens when this game came out and i played the hell out of it

[@vall.castillo]

8:25 nice moment

[@omarisaicanalesortiz7715]

03:55 mira me están escoltando 🚑🚓

[@suryasuwono278]

Remember played this game a lot at my childhood. After completed the story, I started collecting all cars and bike in this game. Try to customized too hahahha

[@DirtyImpala]

My favorite game, I remember, play in PS2

[@Introvertical873]

I feel like this game.. Certain aspects of it should've been in Driver 3.

[@LightPeace]

This game is the best

[@elusive_driver7206]

My childhood!

[@le_silence_l]

7:28🤣👍

[@user-gm8lq2pb8w]

♥🌷 Driver 4🌹

[@Vergil643]

I've played this several times, when I was 8-10 years old ngl I never finished the game.

[@nocturnal7613]

3:27 Daaaaamn 🥵🥵🥵

[@marcusnyari5246]

Driver is born one's again😎

[@VortexStory]

The first Driver game not featuring rain weather !

[@Willzyyy]

But it does have a full day/night cycle, side-missions and a cool felony system...! 👀

[@user-qm9il9zj1d]

i still have this game for pc

[@HairyHarpy]

Groovy

[@kubrickwall5098]

Didn't you play this game like a year ago or something ? Or was it a different Driver.

[@Willzyyy]

That was Driver 76, the PSP prequel to this game.

[@heavenlanes5598]

You got rid of the PS2 camera when you went back to play this. I played PL on my PC years ago and it wasn't that anything out of ordinary until I watched a few videos of the PS2 version. I've come to the conclusion that you have a bit more space for checking your surroundings on the PS2.

[@djsteven9980]

GTA 6 be like

[@tommyliangwei3724]

5th January 2018

[@Aliekber.h]

Great

[@deadghost5583]

There's no"Take A Ride" mode on the PS2?

[@namrood_666]

Cops car like car in THE WARRIORS game

[@mikeivoyloff1656]

Still better than Driv3r

[@Tank09YT]

You’re not using the widescreen fix?

[@Willzyyy]

I am using the Widescreen Fix. 👀

[@deathcold_longplaysua4846]

Cool game, played it a lot but it works very badly on modern OS, and also the open world need some work on it, to be done. Cause it looks like a box with buildings and no details.

[@ralcolfwolfcoon8207]

The music and driving, story, are interesting. I like it. However, I hate they downgraded from 3's sensational crashes and gravity, to way too heavy, heavy gravity that makes cars sink like rocks, it's sad

[@Willzyyy]

I feel the crashes are just as impactful in this as they are in Driv3r. In my opinion the driving is at it's best in this game, though cars have more weight in Driv3r which some might prefer.

[@ralcolfwolfcoon8207]

They just aren't good as 3's. The weight to the cars in crashing is what made it realistic, but this game just feels way too heavy, especially going off jumps, and also, why is it when you hit pedestrians you lose speed?

[@Prodbywookies2k22]

This needs a remaster

[@arfrpt]

where can i download this?

[@campercreed6185]

Steam or GOG.

[@SPIDEYMODS616]

Vims lair

[@r6iqmain498]

Can we get 2006 free roam

[@icon2676]

Fr

[@michaelbraswell7813]

yurrrr first

[@Levelord92]

I never understood why is this game looks worse than Driv3r

[@rainierogarcia8564]

It copied GTA too much.

[@Prodbywookies2k22]

Well there concept for Remaster of The game for PS5 made by Atari

[@lazalazarevic2881]

I didnt played Driver since school days (20yrs ago) and decide to instal this one few days ago. I didnt sleep for 3 days😂😂😂
