    I was not that interested in this game since I wasn't interested in the other Driver games in the series.

    But having just watched Zero Punctuation, Yahtzee claiming this is in his top 5 games for the year... And other people who have played saying it was surprisingly good and a must play for 2011... And having supernatural element to the game.
    - I'm a sucker for the supernatural. The Dresden Files and Supernatural are among my favorite shows of all time.

    Well I'm on board with this. I'll give it a spin today. Anyone else played it or excited to play it?

    The "supernatural" bit is not that important (it's not really supernatural in the first place). Just a framing device for the story, which is good and cheesy enough and an excuse to make the gameplay fast-paced, with all the jumping around between cars.

    I would have been interested but I don't buy games that require a constant Internet connection.

    I got in on Xbox 360 and i friggen love it. :D
    Reminds me of the early Driver games, no BS third person running around like in Driv3r and Driver San Fransisco.

    Even if I was interested, I wouldn't buy Driver: DRM.
