Driver ’76 (2007) is the only entry of the high-speed car chase franchise to land on the PSP. Developed by Sumo Digital and Ubisoft Reflections, it serves as a prequel to Driver: Parallel Lines, taking the series back to the gritty, funk-fueled streets of New York City in the mid-1970s.

The Prequel Story

You play as Ray, a skilled wheelman and mechanic who falls for Chen Chi, the daughter of a powerful Triad boss.

The Hustle: Along with his afro-wearing best friend Slink, Ray must work his way up through the criminal underworld to earn enough respect (and cash) to win over her father.

The Style: The story is told through stylish, 1970s-era motion comic-book cutscenes, which fit the PSP’s screen much better than the blurry pre-rendered FMVs of the time.

Game Description

While it looks like a Grand Theft Auto clone at first glance, Driver ’76 stays true to its roots by keeping the focus heavily on the driving physics and car chases.

Key Features:

Driving First, Shooting Second: Most of the 27 story missions involve high-stakes deliveries, getaway driving, or tailing targets. While there is on-foot combat, the game’s “soul” is in its handbrake turns and muscle car handling.
The “Funk” Soundtrack: One of the most praised aspects of the game is its licensed 70s soundtrack, featuring artists like David Bowie, Blondie, and The Temptations. It perfectly captures the “Starsky & Hutch” vibe.
Vehicle Customization: You can take your cars to the garage to swap paint, upgrade the engine, or add “nitro” boosts.
Open World Freedom: You can free-roam across five boroughs of NYC. While the streets are a bit emptier than the PS2 version, the draw distance and sense of scale were very impressive for the PSP hardware.
Side Hustles: Includes taxi missions, street races, and “destruction derby” challenges to earn extra cash for upgrades.

Short Review: A Funky, Rough Ride

The Good

Great Atmosphere: Between the soundtrack and the comic-book art, the game nails the “70s cool” aesthetic better than almost any other handheld title.
Satisfying Physics: Cars have weight and suspension. Crashing through fruit stands and cardboard boxes while the tires screech feels exactly how a Driver game should.
Mission Skipping: Unlike many open-world games of that era, you can jump straight to missions from a map menu, saving you from having to drive across the city just to start a quest.

The Bad

Technical Glitches: The game is notorious for its long load times. You’ll spend a fair amount of time staring at the “Now Loading” screen between zones.
Clunky Footwork: The on-foot controls and shooting mechanics are stiff. The lock-on system is generous, but it lacks the polish of GTA: Vice City Stories.
Short Campaign: You can breeze through the main story in about 5-6 hours, making it feel more like a “bite-sized” expansion to Parallel Lines rather than a full-scale epic.
