10 Video Games With Insane Features You Never Knew

4. You Can... Sit Down - Driver 2

Manhunt Game

At the time of Driver 2's release, the fact that you could actually get out of the car and run around on-foot was such a startling addition that nobody really stopped to consider what else you could do.

And so, players today are still surprised to learn that the game actually allowed you to do something that so few games do even today - sit the hell down.

Despite the game itself never actually explaining this to the player, you're able to sit down on any of the benches scattered throughout the world simply by pressing Triangle.

It might not seem that insane, but when you consider that Driver 2 felt like it was being held together by duct tape when it came out, only scarcely able to let the player run around its world, the fact it also had a sit-down ability largely unknown by most players is completely ridiculous.
