GTA vs DRIVER: The Ultimate Rivalry! 🚔💥

The rivalry between Grand Theft Auto and Driver is one for the ages! 🏙️ From Driver pioneering the 3D open-world driving genre to GTA redefining it with groundbreaking gameplay, these two iconic franchises have thrown shade, Easter Eggs, and clever jabs at each other for decades. Let’s dive deep into this legendary feud and uncover all the secrets!

🚗 Driver's 3D Legacy

Did you know Driver beat GTA to 3D? While GTA debuted in 1997 as a top-down game, Driver hit the streets in 1999 as the first fully 3D open-world driving game.

🕵️ Meet Tanner
The Driver protagonist, John Tanner, is a former cop-turned-undercover driver. But Rockstar wasn’t impressed. They took shots at Tanner multiple times in their games!

🎯 Rockstar’s Savage Clapbacks
1️⃣ GTA 3: “Two-Faced Tanner”
In this mission, Claude eliminates a “cop” named Tanner—complete with a feminine running animation mocking Driver 2’s infamous walk cycle.

2️⃣ GTA Vice City: Tanner Strikes Again
Tommy Vercetti takes out a cop named Tanner in the mission "Autocide." Coincidence? Not likely. 😏

🎮 Driver’s Counterpunch
Enter Timmy Vermicelli in Driver 3!
A clear parody of Tommy Vercetti from Vice City, Timmy sports a floral shirt, a similar name, and floaties (because Tommy couldn’t swim). Talk about a creative diss! 😂

🔥 GTA Fires Back in San Andreas
Rockstar had the last laugh in San Andreas. During the mission "Madd Dogg’s Rhymes," an NPC gamer mocks Driver:
“Refractions, how could you mess up so bad? Tanner, you SUCK!”
“Refractions” is a parody of Driver’s developer, Reflections.

🔍 GTA Easter Eggs & Secrets
Explore all the hidden references, hilarious moments, and clever jabs sprinkled across both franchises. From GTA 3 to San Andreas and beyond, Rockstar’s attention to detail is unmatched!

Not only did GTA took a jab at Driver, but they made fun of True Crime: Streets of LA. In GTA: San Andreas, there is a billboard in Los Santos that saids "Get rid of rubbish fast! True Grime: Street Cleaners."

Damn haha. I always thought when Madd Dogg said, “Tanner! You suck!”, he was just playing online with someone. Shoulda considered the game was based in 1992 haha.
