Driver 2 was developed by Reflections Interactive and published by Infogrames for the original Playstation in November 2000. Some beta screens were released in May 2000 and as Vicente has made us to notice, there are some little differences in there: the car shown in the early images is similar to the president’s one seen in Driver 1’s last mission but that model is not in the final D2 game. Also, the car is in an unkwnon area in the Rio De Janeiro city. In the video from Driver2Vegas Youtube Channel, we can notice some other removed cars (the Trans Am) without tinted windows, longer drawing distance,the Chicago landscape with skyscrapers looks slightly different, early HUD and gates on the bridge.
Thanks to Vicente and Gamersin for the contribution!

Was the Dreamcast conversion ever confirmed as being a real thing, in terms of it was at least ‘planned’?.
DC-UK claimed Their sources were spilling their guts saying it was coming, but Reflections and Infogrames were’nt talking.
