Driveclub

EurogamerMike Channell

What we're left with is a flimsy framework - a sort of clothes horse for content - rather than a truly great racing game. DriveClub is patently intended to attract a global, interconnected audience of fiercely competitive racers but, to quote the increasingly obscure 1989 Kevin Costner film Field of Dreams: if you build it, they will come. And, unfortunately, Evolution hasn't quite built it.

Finally the game it promised to be at launch, DriveClub is one of the most exciting racers available on PS4.

Halo Wars 2 is a sequel to a fun, if limited RTS back on the Xbox 360. Now that it's on both PC and Xbox, it gets to look gorgeous and run well too, but with a change in developer, how does the gameplay hold up?

It’s been a long wait leading to a bumpy road for racing fans, but DriveClub is finally here. A curious lack of pre-release code and online connection issues has forced us to hold back our thoughts on Evolution Studios' cursed exclusive for a couple of weeks longer than we expected, but having now had a chance to see everything that the long awaited title has to offer, we’re ready to deliver our verdict. The question is: does this well publicised title fire on all cylinders, or simply blow up in smoke?

The penalties for my aggressive style of racing seem like they would take all of the fun out of Driveclub for me, given that’s usually the only way I can win in this genre, but that is not the case. I enjoy Driveclub a great deal and am looking forward to future updates and getting back online to race against other players. I enjoy the different tracks, beautiful locations and slick-looking cars, and unlocking new rides is always a rush and the thrill of victory is addictive and rewarding.

Originally pegged as a launch title for the PS4, DriveClub was delayed an entire year to refine the experience. Sadly, even with all that extra time, what we’re left with under the hood is a very strict on the rails, or on the tracks more appropriately, racer. It’s pretty to look at but in regards to features it’s a simple game harkening back to not only last generation but quite possibly the generation before it. When I say pretty to look at I mean it too… DriveClub is stunning in action with gorgeous backdrops and amazingly rendered cars. Lighting effects are particularly noticeable as a VER...

Driveclub was pegged as one of the big PlayStation 4 launch exclusives: a slick, social sim-lite racer that would show off the new platform’s myriad enhancements.

I would like to clear the air to begin with for this piece. The extent of my racing game experience revolves around Mario Kart, which I feel I’m pretty good at. Driveclub VR takes that experience to a different level, and while I kind of sucked at it, I can definitely appreciate what the game attempts to do.
