Driven

About

Driven is a top-down Formula 1 game that mashes up real racing mechanics with over-the-top stunts from the movie it’s based on. You play as either Joe Tanto or Jimmy Bly in a career mode that strings together 12 movie-themed missions. The controls balance speed and precision with physics that feel tuned for arcade fun rather than simulation. Split-screen lets two players take turns, though the chaotic races and mini-games often favor luck over skill. The game stands out for its odd mix of racing and puzzle-solving, expect off-road chaos, explosions, and objectives that feel more like action-movie stunts than traditional races. While it hasn’t aged well graphically, its wild tone and local multiplayer keep it memorable for fans of irreverent racing. The PlayStation 2 and GameCube versions play almost identically, with no major differences to split hairs over.
