Driver 76 to bring GTA-styled NYC to PSP

The gaming world has been raving about Rockstar's incredibly accurate portrayal of New York City in Grand Theft Auto IV. While PSP won't be getting served with a tiny version of Rockstar's next-gen crime game, fans may want to look towards Ubisoft's upcoming PSP-exclusive Driver 76 for some NYC run 'n gun play. It's been a long time since we last heard about the game, but with the release only a month away, Ubisoft has opened a new official website, filled with new screenshots. We're getting mixed feelings about the presentation: while it looks good up-close, it appears to have the draw distance of an N64 game. Ouch. We're hoping for the best, and for fans of the genre, this may be the only game we'll have to play until Rockstar inevitably adds another GTA game to our library.

Yeah right, Ubisoft making an open ended game with any sort of replay value is like Chuck Norris growing a vagina, it just won't ever happen. (Ubisoft is my least favorite developer)

This just in, Chuck Norris has decided to grow a vagina. By the way, ALL games have replay value, it's just lower for some than others. And where does it say that this is going to be an open ended game? I mean "GTA-styled" and "Driver" may have meant open ended, but it never really says for sure. Stop hating, Sean.

All I can say is, muscle cars for the win! If it's as good as Parallel Lines, hopefully without the heavy traffic because you couldn't drive 50 feet without ramming into a car in that game, then I'm perfectly satisfied.
