I Just played the demo of this game. It is included with the October Issue of Playstation magazine (at newstands)so dont just take my word for it, go and get it! It was great! The graphics are excellent with great firey explosions etc.! Game play and controls are fairly easy to learn. The AI can be tough but hey if it was too easy it would be boring! If you are into the car racing type of games or are an old arcade Spyhunter player and want a new twist then this is the game for you! CHECK IT OUT!

This is definantly a must have for the PS2. This classic arcade game has came through with a great sequal. There is no game like spy hunter out there. The level design is amazing and the locations are great. The missions are objective based and are very fast paced action packed fun. This sequal shares alot of the great things that were in the original but is fine tuned in 3D and funner than ever.

To put is short and sweet....this game ROCKS!
Just played the demo and eventhough it wasn't what I expected, I played it for hours. If you like the speed of GT3 and the arsenal of Twisted Metal, you will not be disappointed. The graphics in the levels are tight, the car transition is very cool, the control...dead on, and it is actually challenging! You MUST check this one out

This is a great game for any gamer, beginner, intermediate, or expert. If any of you know of the Spy Hunter they made for the Atari 2600(r.) this is quite a step into the future. The Car (G-Interceptor) can morph into a Motorcycle when shields are low, when hitting water a Power Boat or Jet Ski. The Car can have A rack of hood mounted missiles, Dual forward machine guns, Black Smoke that comes out the bumper for enemeys to get lost in, and a variety of other weapons. One of the biggest feats I believe Midway overcame was the real time video. There are no video-breaks, tweaks, anything like that it is just fast streaming video. That is excellent with the pixel rate it is running at for the PS2 console. If you?re into anything like racing, 3PS (3rd person shooter), or just action/adv. games this is the game for you. Doesn?t matter where you buy it its going to be 50.00 that?s the penalty of the PS2 console. You can sometimes find it used on eBay(r.) for anywhere between 20-35$. I often have games for sale but not currently check under seller Vipero22. I highly recommend this game to anyone!

This game is excellent. I'm a big Spy Hunter fan from the arcade version. This new version is even better. The graphics are great and the transformation from car - boat - to even a killer bullet bike is outstanding. Definately worth buying.

Best game available for PS2!

This game is excellent! Spy Hunter has the perfect mix driving and shooting. One of my big complaints about most games is that they are either too easy (you become board quickly) or too difficult(you get frustrated and quit), but this game is PERFECT it is challenging to keep you interested, but it is not so difficult that it becomes frustrating. If you fail a mission several times you really enjoy playing the same level over as you attempt to complete the mission rather than it becoming monotonous. The levels are really well designed and fun to drive/shoot your way through. To clarify this is the most fun PS2 I have played yet!

Get this bad boy now!!

Man, where to begin?? First, let's talk graphics. Everything about this game looks fantastic. The cars, the cities, the roads, the boats, water etc.. SMOOTH. Seriously, imagine Twisted Metal Black, only with a plot and objectives. The transformation of the car is great, feels like you're James Bond. The sound... awesome. The title music you'll instantly recognize. I really can't find one thing I don't like about this game. It's fast, and with a LOT of hidden routes to let you explore. One second you'll be in the boat, next you're hopping on the sidewalk in Venice running down people. This game is for racing and action fans alike. I can't recommend this game enough. I loved the first Spy Hunter in the 80's, but this one blows it away. Finally, a game that's not too hard, but not too easy either. Get it now!!

If you ever dreamed of fighting off bad guys in a cool car with James Bondian gadgets--this is the game for you! I love pushing a button and leaving an oil-slick for bad guys to skid into. I especially like the idea that the vehicle automatically converts from boat to car to motorcycle whenever the situation calls for it. For example; in one level you can speedboat through the canals of Venice blasting bad guys in boats. In certain areas of the level the boat can go up a ramp and will switch to car mode and allow you to drive alongside the canals. The control configuration is logically laid out and similar to GT3. One of the best things about Spy Hunter is the theme song--which is the same one from the old Peter Gunn T.V. show. The song is updated, sounds great and a good choice because it really psyches you up for a great futuristic spy adventure.

Spy Hunter - good as the first?

I say great game and good integration of some of the old Arcade SpyHunter mixed in. I think, seeing the complexity though, of some other new games on the market, like GT 3 A-Spec, the game could be longer (only took a long night to finish). Also incorporate more technology and cool stuff. Don't forget every game on PS2, in my opinion, needs better multi-player action.
All in all, if you spent countless hours playing the first one like me, (I think it was Nintendo too, and I wish I still had the damn thing so I could play the original again.) this game is a must have. If your skills have rusted a little since then, like me, don't worry, the games not that hard.

Tons O' Fun

Yup; it's better and much more fast paced than the origional 1983 game. I couldn't put this baby down for the first 2 hours and now it's all I think about. Excellent!
