Driver: Parallel Lines is the fourth video game in the Driver series. The game was released in March 2006 on the PlayStation 2 and Xbox by Atari, Wii and Microsoft Windows in June 2007 by Ubisoft.Diverging from previous Driver games, Parallel Lines takes place in just one city, New York, instead of multiple cities, but in the middle of the story the eras of the city - 1978 and 2006 - are changed. Due to the underwhelming performance of Driv3r, particularly the often-derided on-foot sections, Parallel Lines returns to the formula used in earlier games in the series, focusing on driving, although shooting remains in the game. The game was received better by critics than the last game, though did receive some criticism.This is the first game of the Driver series that does not follow undercover cop Tanner.Ekshena racing action takes place in New York in two time strata.In 1978, the protagonist of the game, the young racer, by the will of fate turns out to be involved in the criminal case by a local gang. Because of the treacherous betrayal, he goes to prison, where forced to spend 28 years of life.Serving his conclusion, he returns to the roads of New York to take revenge. The city, which he now sees from the window of his car, was quite different.The control layout differs slightly from Driv3r. There is no option to jump on the game. Also the use of a separate control to do a "burnout" as opposed to accelerating normally with no wheel-slip in vehicles was removed. This was practical on the pressure sensitive buttons of the PS2 controller but meant that if the game was played using a PC keyboard to drive vehicles, that most of them would constantly do a burnout when accelerating at low speeds, reducing control. Also the "Auto-aim" feature, similar to the console versions of Grand Theft Auto III, Grand Theft Auto: Vice City and Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas was introduced on all platforms of the game, allowing easier target selection for shooting. A manual aim was also possible on all weapons, which zoomed in the view for greater accuracy.The game features a dozen types of missions available, depending on the chosen era. Street and the annular race, working taxi driver and other entertainment interspersed with the hijacking of cars on order, distillation cars on a certain route, and even headhunting other drivers.
