Meanwhile some of the missions require pure luck to figure them out. For example (bit of a mission spoiler here) where you have to drive the booby trapped car to the lorry, you're not told it's in a compound and since you can't drop below 50 mph, you can't really explore the area for a way in, you just have to be lucky and find an entrance. Even when you do get in, you have to drive the car up to the lorry all the while not quite sure what's going to happen when it suddenly tells you to "jump out!" which, if you're not expecting it, leaves you little time to avoid the explosion and you die.
As for the last mission, I wasn't impressed at all. (Spolier again)Basically, you have to follow Jericho whilst a horde of gun men (it's not clear as to why they're actually there) try to protect him. Then for no apparent reason, explosions start to go off around you whilst even more men appear from nowhere. If you manage to overcome the bemusement of the situation, then you end up chasing Jericho down an ally where you can then hide behind a skip whilst he feebly tries to dodge the hail of bullets from your M-16. The worst thing though, is that once you've pumped about 500 rounds into him, you watch the end sequence which shows him still alive! It makes no sense.
Overall though, I thought it was an OK game. The trouble was it thought it was bigger/better than it actually was. If it didn't take itself so seriously, it would have been a nice little game.

I thought it was good, but too hard.
I must of played it for a week and got bored because it was so hard, hant played it for a while now.
In the the Take A Ride mode there are ten Tommi Vermacellis and three hidden cars in each city to be found.
> No, what drive do you have?
I wouldn't have a clue.
