But we have "Driver" at home! - The Wheelman

[@Silver_Warden]

This game feels like a movie tie-in that inexplicably came out a day before the movie it was based on got cancelled.

[@MattMcMuscles]

Definitely!

[@AlidarJarok1]

Funny you say that, Wikipedia says there was supposed to have been a movie tie in with this.

[@HorrorFan382]

Didn't that happen with one of the rock's games?

[@AlidarJarok1]

@@HorrorFan382 That one Spy Hunter Game I think.

[@keeperftw]

15:02 As a Spaniard, I'm fascinated by the fact that whoever was in charge of the script apparently did enough research to know that "por fa" (or rather "porfa", but whatever) is a short form of "por favor", but not enough research to know that it pretty much always carries childish and/or cutesy connotations; it's like having a guy pleading for his life while going "Pretty please! Pretty please with sugar on top!"

[@TupocalypseShakur]

It could work if it was played for comedy

[@Prohass]

Matt’s voice and laugh is like an infectious cartoon character, he’s too adorable to be real

[@Spynmaster]

yeah it's so INTOXICATING

[@CerberusLives]

Spyhunter? Rampage? This Vin Diesel game sure is referencing a lot of things The Rock was in.

[@ravageduckmanguy]

Glad you got back to this. Stopping last time before you got to see the cyclone in action was missing out on the very essence of this game.

[@kingty2550]

Chronicles of Riddick shit on any game the Rock has under his belt

[@plasmaoctopus1728]

Yeah I feel like those 2 Riddick games basically make Vin Diesel have the better video game career by default.

[@rohankishibeandpinkdarkboy8853]

This game proves that Vin Diesel limits his power level when he's on-foot.

[@billybattle]

Vin Diesel’s gameography includes The Wheelman, Escape from Butcher Bay/Dark Athena and the overlooked XXX gameboy advance game. There is no contest unless you’re including No Mercy.

[@charlesbennett7484]

For everyone getting on Matt's case about calling it a "mini cooper", not all of us care what a car is called. Some of us only care if it runs and goes "VROOM!" 🚙

[@plasmaoctopus1728]

It is a little funny though that it's even in the game at all. It's the one car that honestly doesn't even go "vroom" as so much as "bzzzt". It's about the least vin diesel thing outside of... a vespa, what is wrong with this game?!

[@JCM217]

I think about this game way more than I should.

[@spahr001]

I think Matt just pissed off Mini fans everywhere by calling a smartcar a Cooper.

[@SpacedAug]

eyes wide moment

[@_SereneMango]

"Mierda means 'good job!'" As a Spanish speaker, this man is wise.

[@JoeW473]

Enjoyed the two Scots bit Just sitting here like "Hehehe...thats my voice"

[@digitalunity]

Still want a wa happun on driv3r, since I saw it in the title there. I know this ain't the time or the place to ask about it, but there's... yeah there's a lot to cover with that one and I'm gonna suggest it through proper channels when I get the chance

[@Child_of_woe_1994]

Mini Cooper 😂 that tiny car was supposed to be a smart car

[@guttsu]

For some reason I wouldn't be surprised if Vin Diesel funding this game himself.

[@renslo689]

pretty sure it was made by his gaming studio Tigon

[@TyCal_]

This is the best unofficial fast and furious game ever made

[@jhonmarston1234]

No Mr. Mcmuscles a cat is a living creature!

[@AkiraSO4]

I really hope he gets to play the wacky soul transfer Driver San Francisco game again.

[@michaelbandada9887]

Vin Diesel just no sold a head first tumble. I guess injuries don’t exist in the Vin-Man’s vocabulary

[@Toby_Kat]

Oh hell yeah! I had to buy like three copies of this game before one would work!! And this was in the last couple years, lol I'm _really_ hoping this game comes to GOG someday! Stranglehold was caught in a rights kerfuffle, but they sorted that one out... So I've still got hope for Mr. The Wheelman here ;D Same with Chronicles of Riddick: AoDA But yeah, I first saw gameplay of this one yeeears back, like 2013 or 2014. I had just pooled my money with a couple friends so we could buy our first airsoft guns (still got mine!), and we went back to his place to play some Xbox. He didn't have Wi-Fi, so the USB I brought with my profile and Minecraft on it could get all verified with their servers, so we only had the demo. After an hour or so of that, I watched somebody play Wheelman for a bit, and it looked SO cool! I was like, _"how have I never heard of this game?!?!"_ Anyway, they got bored of that, and it was late... So they threw on The Walking Dead, and we all fell asleep before the end of episode 2. That's the most TWD that I've ever seen, even still. Good times, lol. And thank you for playin' this for us, McMuscles ❤ Goddd, watching this brings back beautiful memories of when games were simpler and feckin' _good!_ Unrealistic, explodey, janky and dumb as hell... But sooo fun ;p I've been playing a lot of games from the 6th and 7th console generations, and this... This is my happy place :3

[@MrAmazinglyAverage]

Find anything interesting on KZbin lately? I saw Vin Diesel crash headlong into a car then ragdoll 20 feet in the air before cracking his neck on the tarmac on the way down, all in all pretty cool. WHAT!?

[@Joonas6]

Was that Grant from TFs at the table saying do you like heists? What a weard pull.

[@Gliscor101]

Only God can judge me

[@XrosHeartless]

The environment looks like it's from Sonic 06

[@skellymanz5084]

I remember playing the demo for this on the Xbox marketplace multiple times

[@MagmaMKII]

KZbin thinks this game is GTA V

[@MrJAG]

6:30 - No, it's a smart car

[@smashpro1]

Was that a goddamn TFS At The Table reference?

[@DarkMProductions]

Vin and Dwayne need a "You sonava bitch!" moment.

[@plasmaoctopus1728]

While driving cars.

[@adammckay3299]

6:11 Was that Grant from Team Four Star?

[@barretprivateer8768]

That was a smart car, mini cooper is more square

[@ryankz1177]

We need this as a series, now!

[@ClarkKentai]

I want to see an entire game focused around the vehicle combat here, this shit is bonkers. Gonna have to track down a copy and dust off the 360.

[@outlawdg]

bro they didnt _need_ to make his head that shiny, they _chose_ to

[@noobsaibot2255]

Thats a Smart car not a Mini lol

[@corwin32]

Every continent except Antarctica, after the Anti-I'm-Vin-Diesel International Treaty of 2018. It was passed after _XXX: The Return of Xander Cage_

[@shirokazuchi]

KZbin is so dumb it thinks this is GTA V

[@zipzipzommin4329]

Watching F9 is like playing wheelman

[@DragonSkyNija]

I don't know if people see this as a good or bad fighting game but it is good for me and the game is Xena the Warrior Princess the Talisman of Fate.

[@juansebastianpineda4617]

I laught a lot, ty Matt. Keep it up

[@Sintoolkicks]

Metro 2032? Never heard of that one. I guess that's like a prequel.

[@Power_Attorney]

GTA Remake lookin good 👍

[@170AndBeyond]

Crossfyyyyyyhaaaaaa!!

[@zackschilling4376]

MORE MADONNA RAP MATTHEW!!!!

[@SuperShaman]

I literally came here to see if anyone else commented this 😂 American Life is one of my favorite songs UNTIL Madonna starts rapping; based on the tone of the song, I think it’s intentional, but still…

[@shahrouh]

Tried to go for all trophies in this game, (only ones left are S ranking all sidemissions). But those glitched on me and wouldn't unlock which is forcing deleting the whole application and starting all over. :/ Thanks Vin Diesel!

[@douglasmarcondes4194]

Wait....could this be.... a SUPERIOR EDITION than the GTA DEFINITIVE EDITION?! Think about it...

[@MultiGerard18]

pls keep playing!

[@soulscreme]

The Rock is in Fortnight, feel like he wins.

[@charlesbennett7484]

Question: is there a Speed Racer game? Matt kept singing the theme song and it made me wonder.....🤔

[@tengu5949]

The awesome Speed Racer movie game

[@BassmintStile]

There's that crappy SNES one.

[@willis3rik]

Hahaa in the smart car

[@SpacedAug]

Family

[@darthxanus4902]

Lmao damn this game was fun to me when i was a kid i forgot about it

[@BigEOT3]

[Vin:I got family and HAND SHARK.]

[@ren-soja-dakomegiddo2186]

Go George Clooney gooooo!

[@bluesquiddemon]

the rock is in fortnite so hes at the very least getting more video game money than vin

[@ricepower69]

More.

[@spyda4454]

After playing the matrix tech demo it be pretty cool if the Diesel remade the wheelman in unreal 5

[@kirbyalex2002]

I like how this is supposed to be some European country but the map is straight up Los Angeles and San Bernardino County, California

[@Howlingd0g]

Looks to me like it's quite heavily based on Barcelona, Spain.

[@chungusbooper]

[@Gooner333333333]

Vin Diesel is the 40 something uncle who still thinks he can relate to teenagers

[@johntheloner7269]

Family? Edit: no family

[@lightsideendings5815]

For a game that's a stupid GTA sandbox ripoff starring Vin Diesel, that city map looks really big and also pretty.

[@Natalie-un2oj]

Can you play Burnout 3: TAKEDOWN and then do a retrospective on the burnout series plssssss

[@ruckus1015]

It's a not so smart car

[@LOLRyanTheKidLOL]

For some reason, this was the game that made me beg my mom for a PS3 when I was a kid. THIS was the one. I just liked jumping from car to car.

[@mephistovonfaust]

Ok, he has no idea about cars. That much is confirmed. That was a Smart rip off. It looks nothing like a Mini or a PT Cruiser.

[@MattMcMuscles]

Haha I don't care about cars.

[@Gregtami]

This game is poop.

[@MattMcMuscles]

It's really not. Super fun.

[@Gregtami]

@@MattMcMuscles Meh -_- I vaguely remember playing a demo on xbox 360 and it didn't really grab my attention... but i guess i can give it a try. One more time.
