  1. The closest thing to GTA on Wii, featuring great vehicles, okayish missions and a colossal city to drive around in. [Sept 2007, p.51]
  2. It's alright, but not good enough for us to forgive yet another port. [Aug 2007, p.76]

    Whilst it doesn't have the depth of play of The Godfather, or the violence of Scarface it does a good job of playing to its strengths and delivering a highly enjoyable game.

    At the end of the day Driver on the WIi is fun. The graphics may be lacking slightly and certain aspects of the gamplay are a bit irritating, but generally this game is great to play. It provides a GTA style experience along with Wii controls which does lead to a winning combination. Certainly worth checking out. Expand

    Suprisingly good, very good imitation of Grand Theft auto. Graphics are not that good, but gameplay is good especially with wiimote aiming - although has some quirks and bugs. Expand

    Unfortunately, doesn’t even come close to GTA. Dull & boring storyline, really boring missions, unrealistic car behaviour and terrible control. I think someone paid off the critics above to keep the ratings above 50%. Expand
