I’ve long wanted to do this with some game. But most games are set in or based on cities in the USA, and I’ve not really been there. Recently I want to Nice in France, so here’s my chance to dig up a 15 year old game and do some comparing. Apologies for the quality of some of the pics and comparisons, I’m doing this for me as much as anyone else
Kinja won’t allow me to put text between the pictures because it’s a fucking terrible piece of software. So I’ll use captions or something.

In all of these, the Driver screenshot will come first. Note that I did visit all of these places, but I don’t always have good pics for comparison. So I relied on google streetview a bit.

A word of warning. This game is old. The physics are pretty robust, but sort of flakey at the same time. I fell through the ground once and died. Thankfully that didn’t happen to me in real life Nice.
