Driver: Parallel Lines is the fourth installment in the cinematic driver-for-hire series from Atari. You can play as an 18-year-old who is the most sought after driver in New York. The twist-filled storyline leads you through 40 missions and 80 drivable vehicles. Driver: Parallel Lines features more realistic damage modeling and improved city detail than its predecessors. You can go online and play against up to seven other players in a variety of multiplayer modes.

Problems

VP6 Videos

Driver: Parallel Lines uses the VP6 video codec, common in Electronic Arts' titles, causing its videos to have vertical line artifacts and other glitches on many graphics cards. The Software Render will display VP6 video correctly, but is typically too slow. VP6 rendering also reacts poorly to the Force Texture Filtering enhancements (and Anisotropic Filtering on NVIDIA), causing further scrambling. See issue 7193. This can be fixed with Manual Texture Sampling in the Graphics Settings → Advanced menu.
