I thought the original was good and the makers have done a great job of improvement! The vehicles are larger and handle tons better. The gameplay has improved also. A great buy!

Good Sequel

One of the most well balanced games I've seen. If you have a GameCube, get Smuggler's Run on it, because it's just an improved verson of this game. The only thing I dont like about this game is how they still took out the animals and pedestrians when you play the game multi player. What else are 2 people gonna do on "Free Run" mode. Come on Rockstar.

good game

graphics and sound have improved from the first smugglers run. Missions are easy, but it has an excellent multiplayer mode.

better than the first one even!

For all of you gamers out there who loved Smuggler's Run as much as I did, you are in for a treat. Rockstar did it again with an all new adventure that will keep you on the edge of your seat as well as cursing the levels that require playing numerous tims to pass, only to fel like a god when you do accomplish that task. Smuggler's Run 2 Hostile Territory is just that. Hostile Territory sums this game up to a T. The police, border control, and armed services are even more hardcore than on the original Smuggler's Run so for those of you who had gotten frustrated by the first Smuggler's Run because of the security than maybe this game isn't for you. However...For the rest of you, I highly recommend getting SR2, You WON'T regret it. I PROMISE!!!!!

Xelent game!

This game is really good. The graphics have been improved from the last SMUGGLER'S RUN game. What is bad is that the graphics are decreased in some levels in the game (unlock them yourselves!!!!;)) The cops are still kind of hard to beat but they can be beaten which is good (last game it took more than 1 go each time you played a level to beat it).

Buy this game i highly recommend it!

ugh..Thought this game would be much better

I was really disapointed with this game. The graphics are nice. Not great by any means. The objectives are too basic & simple. I thought you had to pick up certain drugs & deliver then to a certain spot. Taking long journeys avoiding rivals & cops. This was not the case. Basically, you run back & forth. The fun level is minimal. Common rockstar. You can do much better then this..

Not Worth The $$$$$

Smuglers' Run 2 is good but its just like anadd-on to the frst but cost 30 buck more. The original is just as good. Also whypy the same amount of money forthis whn you can get Grand Theft Auto 3 for the same amount bu be ableto use better guns, be a taxi driver and steal more cars. GTA3 is better but if thats to violent gt the original smuglrs' run for less $$ and the same stuff.

Definetly a rental.....

This game is not bad, but it is not that good either. The physics are not all that great, but the story behind it is a little bit better. Here are my ratings for it(out of a possible 5 points).

Graphics: 3 1/2
Physics: 2
Game Play: 3
Control: 2 1/2

RENT BEFORE BUYING!!!

i gave this game 2 stars because it asked "how fun". the game looks awesome and the cars drive awesome, but that is about it. there is a fine line between a game that is difficult and just plain stupid. difficulty is a good thing, you never want to beat it in a day, and the game needs to be challenging.. but wanting to personally find the "testers" of this game and give them a good thrashing - that's not good at all. the controlls are very strange to get used to - if you are used to using r1 for your e-brake on driving games. the police are just plain annoying. and they could have make the sound affects a little less grating and aggrevating.. but that's my opinion..

Mediocre game...

This game has better graphics and handling than the original, but the sequel to the original has raised the annoyance level bar several levels. First, the cops are way too good for this game, even better than the first. This makes the game way too difficult. Next, the unlocking of all the cars and their countermeasures should have been done early in the game, because the cops have way better cars than the player has. Furthermore, what is with the additional cop cars that get resurrected? Lastly, you should have the ability to request a team accompany you, rather than alone. True, some of the missions you do receive a team, but not often. I mean, they should permit the player to choose if he or she wants a team or not to accompany them on the mission. The developers could reduce the point levels and such, if you request a team, but at least have the option out there.

Overall, rent this game before you buy. This is not a keeper.
