The only weapon you may ever come across is the pineapple that is hidden in one of the levels, however at this time I will not disclose the position.

WOPR, I'm sorry, but this is in fact subject of a press release we'll be issueing on Monday. Don't leak this kind of information anymore please.

Amaars, remember you didn't hear this from us, ok?

If you look very closely at this picture, you should be able to answer that question yourself, Amaarss.

As with all games deadlines are not always 100%. We are doing our best to bring Driver 3 out as soon as possible, but unfortunately we suffered a major computer crash the other day which resulted in the loss of alot of code, including the "gas pumping" feature.

I would just like to add that we will be offering some Driver 3 Merchandise to the reader who produces the best Driver 3 fan website, with fan fiction and art (erotic Driver 3 fan fiction will be allowed but kept in a separate folder to the rest).

Many Thanks,

Hey boys, has the David Hasselhoff deal gone through yet? We need to get him in for the voice acting and song recording ASAP. Heard the change of location to Hot Shot City was particularly good too.

Currently, we are trying to implement an 'antipodean babe generator' into the game. This is proving difficult however, and I have been forced to probe quite deeply into the babes in order to try and sort out the problem.

Errol, please use approved corporate nomenclature. The game has an arabic numeral in its title, not a roman one.

Oh, and have you taken your pills? Please do remember that it's written into your contract. Hyoushi, would you bring the cattle prod please?

JabbaDaHut, have you put any more thought into the Stoplight Windscreen Washer minigame, I think a bentami style rhythm action with 'irate driver' set pieces is called for. What do you think?

Nice one, JabbaDaHut. That surely deserves a jammy dodger. I think we're out of filters though so I've just got to pop out to Safeways.

Do you reckon we could get a cup holder simulation into the game? I was speaking to the boys in MR and they said it'd go down well with the soccer mum demographic.

I've just had a thought, we can increase project funding through advertising by inserting a Starbucks on the corner of every street. Also, by putting random car stickers everywhere, even ones the player can collect and apply to his favourite set of wheels.

Tiger_Walts: working on that just now - how freaky is that? Also adding in the Hit the Granny section this afternoon. Thinking of rejigging it so you get extra points for nicking her shopping - Suggestions, Ideas?

FWB: As far as I know this one is still being discussed. I'm glad that you are coming up with ideas that have obviously been influenced by your daily chores. See Fanboyees - From top to bottom the Driver 3 team is here for you...

Oh, we've got more than twenty bikes in there. There's gonna be a red one, a blue one, a yellow one, a couple of pink ones, one with lots of sparkly lights, a fast one, a cop one and loads more. We've done extensive research, and we think we've got all the colours of the rainbow covered.

I am pleased to announce that Isla fisher will also feature in Driver 3. We have, only today, signed and sealed a lucrative contract with the aforementioned young lady for her 'services'.

I look forward to engaging with her at a later date.

I've been making some graphical improvements to the modified Stuntman engine today chaps. Defribulated some buffered voxels, tweaked the AA liaising (Chandler scripting) and podulated some shading nodes in a fun attempt to create the ability for 'infinite handling of polygons'. Didn't really seem to work though so I've gone for a 'finite handling of polygon' engine which is faster and saves two extra letters for the manual.

Amaarss, would you mind telling us where your particular interest in our title comes from? We're very (and I mean very) flattered with your endless stream of questions, and we'd like to know what we could help you with further. Do you have a website or other forums we could post news on?

(Note to self: Next team-meeting, propose Amaarss as a tester for our next project ).

Hi guys, Reg "Gurgy" here.

Firstly I'd like to thank the Driver 3 Dev Team for all their hard work over the last few months, these include Renzo, Pjmaybe, Wopr, LaundroMat, FWB, Daryoon, Otto (Hi boss!), mentat, Tiger, Jabba, Jiro and mal. I'm sure the Edge review will make it all worthwhile.

We truly value the input of the genuine gamers who have contributed to these discussions and, on the suggestion of LaundroMat, we've included a couple of you guys, including Amaarss, in the end game credits under "additional input".

This evening I've given to ok for the press release to be sent out announcing that Driver 3 will go gold by the end of August for a full retail release on 12/09/03 (do you see what we did there), and after extensive discussions with Game UK stores it is exclusively available to pre-order from all Game stores from this Wednesday (13/08/03). Store managers should be updated by 9am on Wednesday but if they haven't received their memo then please ask them (nicely mind) to pre-order it under "Promotion Code 6".

Well thanks once again and we look forward to your input when you play the game in September.

Amaarss - Do you have some information on GTA4's city size? Given the game hasn't been anounced and no speculative details have ever been given for it.

What about replays? will they still be in the game. Thats one thing that made similar games so boring after awhile, but in the previous Drivers "replay mode" made shit real great. I play Driver 2 more than VC now just for that option

Yes, the cities in Driver 3 will be much larger than the cities from GTA 4, just like the last games, such as GTA 3 for exanple, it took no more than 2 minutes to drive to the completally oposite end of the cities. In Diver 1&2 it took at least 5-10 minutes, and this is of coures in each game's "top-notch" cars. Both are unrealistic driving times, but driver 1&2 are very close, you could drive through San Francisco in 10 if there was no traffic.

Realism in Driver 1&2 for car speeds/city size, was almost 100% realism.

Yeah, but that doesn't mean Rockstar won't change GTA's ways. The things people hate about GTA3 and VC they may change in GTA4 to keep things upbeat and optimistic. Thats obviously what Rockstar will do. All the Ideas that Reflections and ya'll have for Driver 3 like; Swimming and better Car physics, will prolly be used by Rockstar as well. Lets just hope the Graphics, the time, the research, and experience with Stuntman will give Driver 3 an edge over Rockstar and GTA4

Well i hope rockstar fixes the problem with the city size, not that i like them more, but just becasue its nice to see a well done game. The only other problem that GTA has and Driver has, and the rest of the driving games that involve cops, is a problem we will all have to face one day. WARANTS, because for real life if you out run a cop, they will recognize you later, and they will be at your house, at your job and any other place that has to do with you. I don't no if our game will have tihs feature, i don't really work in that section, but it would be great to see it.

I agree, that has always been a problem in driving games. It saddens me to see the police in these games being so brutal and not logical. If you outrun cops in real life, you will be most likely identified and the police will be waiting for you at one place or another. There is a chance that you'll get away with it only if you had logic as well. Having a intellect choice in Car, Route, Crime, Recon, ect. I think that would be a bad ass feature in Driver 3 if the Police showed up at your Crib if your logic was astray in your crime; and your felony level was too high or something along those lines. By the way, will Driver 3 include a speedometer and/or Gas Gauge?

GTA 4 will not have cities. It will instead include the whole of the planet Neptune, realistically mapped from satellite images sent back over the last 20 years. We'll be creating around 45 million small towns and villages that will be liberally spread across the surface of the planet, housed in their own little bubbles of oxygen. Cars will be there as usual, but you'll also be able to steal and ride around on the local wildlife! You haven't lived until you've thrown a big fat guy out of the oxygen bubble and watched him explode in the zero-pressure of 'Outer Space (tm)'! Let's see you compare with that, Driver Dev-Team monkeys!

In Relation to the topic of GTA4's city size, there are many rumors but it seems that it will be close to Libery City. There is a rumor that GTA4 is even loacted in Liberty City 2 years after the GTA3 plot occured and You are the gangster that you were in GTA 3. But like I said thats a rumor. So, don't rely on it. Either way Driver 3 will be better. It seems the people at Rockstar are trying to form a plot and join the characters from GTA3 and VC, So in a way there behind. but thats my opinion.
