Hi guys! As you probably know Driver: San Francisco is 75% off on steam today. It's £4.99 in the UK, and £6.24. But is it worth it? I don't know if I should buy it, or save money for summer sale. What do you think?

I've heard it's very good from someone who has better taste in games than me.

How can someone have better taste in games than someone else? That seems a bit subjective, as people have varying opinions of what they like.

That's debatable.

I really don't want to get into it though.

It's debatable that people have varying opinions? Ok lol. I see no need to go further in this as well.

That is absolutely not what I meant.

Of course people have varying opinions. But they are not all equally valid, and some people have better taste than others.

I haven't played it either, but have heard only praise for it. The story is a bit bonkers and it seems like a lot of fun if you like driving games. Watch some gameplay videos.

haha lol. Well, if you get viruses by installing it, then you're not installing the official version.

It's just DRM, Steam is also a sort of DRM, EVERYTHING digital today has DRM.

Nope, far from everything. Many developers realize the uselessness of DRM and ignore it entirely. But then there are companies like Ubi that are determined to fuck their customers in every way possible.

My thoughts exactly when I saw today's sale.

They have removed the "always online" and only left a one-time online activation: Your should read Ubisoft forum sometime that not a big deal but at lease it less then $10 so that in self is a good deal better then $20, $30, $40, $50 or even $60 and Diablo 3 DRM is far worse

I agree that D3 is worse and I don't see anyone here claiming the opposite. Online-only singleplayer is the second worst type of DRM, after limited activations.

if you give Yahtzee's reviews any credence (mostly, I don't, I watch them for the entertainment value), he actually seemed to like it (about as much as he does any game, anyway) clinky

I say go for it. The game is a blast! If you like muscle cars, and movie car chases, this game is right up your alley. It's arcadey, but way better than GTA games. Don't expect a racing sim out of it. Lots of stunts, challenges, and car crashes. Just know up front, that it's all about driving, with no on-foot exploration or combat. I paid significantly more, and have gotten a lot of play time out of it.

I've been hearing you still need to "opt out" of Uplay to play offline each time you start the game. Can anyone confirm/deny this? This doesn't bother me, but I'm trying to educate a few people about the DRM changes and I want to be sure I'm providing correct information.

How does it compare to the first Driver (gameplay-wise)?

On a side note: Does anyone remember the ludicrously difficult and mandatory tutorial mission in the first game? I had to download a savegame with the mission cleared to finally play the real game. Prime example of bad game design in an otherwise great game...

I only remember that I couldn't finish the last mission, it was like ten times more difficult than the previous ones.
