Driver: Parallel Lines Ported To PC, Wii
January 14th, 2007 by Rajiv Ashrafi in Driving
Citing ESRB ratings, TVG carries word that Ubisoft plans on releasing Wii and PC versions of Driver: Parallel Lines, originally released last year on Xbox and PS2.
Ubisoft bought Driver developer Reflections Interactive for $24 million last year, but the French publisher is yet to announce the ports, though the eagle-eyed reporters over on TVG have sighted ratings for the game (M-rated for those interested) on the US ratings group’s website. Ubisoft is yet to make a comment, or announce the games.

I have no idea why Ubi bought Driver in the first place. Not one game in the series has been successful. I understand they’d give $25m for the Far Cry license, but Driver?

“Driver” still has some brand value, there’s even a movie coming out soon. Ubisoft will most certainy take advantage of that.
And don’t forget that they could actually make a good game, wothy (or not?) or the name.

Another M rated game for the Wii … maybe Ubisoft can make the Driver series interesting. I’m not expecting much though but it would be a nice surprise.
