Hi there,

    I've had a few bad experiences with my mate's copy of Driver (I sensibly
plumped for buying SFA3 and was mightily impressed). On the last city, I
forget what it's called, if you drive the wrong way down the one way tunnel
in it, a cop will spot and ram you, pushing the car straight through the
tunnel wall and crashing the game. This happens /every/ time you play and is
pretty poor, it must be said.

    I've also seen that dodgy replay thing going on in V-Rally2. In one of
my replays, I ended up driving the wrong way round the track, causing a
fairly spectacular crash once I met up with the other cars. Does anyone know
if you can race head-to-head against a friend on a track built in the
editor? I've only found an option to do it in time trial mode, whih means
you can ram the other cars off the road :-(

    I've also noticed a _really_ bad drop in frame rate on the night stages
in V-Rally2 which make some of the courses virtually unplayable in Arcade
mode. Boo! Hiss!


Tom
