    Its not that great game. Rent it first then see if you like it. But I wouldn't buy it.

    A remake of the 1983 game. A used copy is out there somewhere. Find and buy it. It's mindless fun, but can be quite difficult. Here's hoping Sony would re-release it on PSN

    Update of a rather primitive top down scroller, this 3D version is a road racer/shoot 'em up hybrid that puts you in the hot seat of a James Bond style super car. It's the kind of game that could've been fantastic as levels within a larger sandbox style affair, but on its own there's not *quite* enough to it. It is fast, frantic and fun while it lasts though.

  1. Reborn into a new era of gaming, SpyHunter maintains its great name for being a hardcore action racing title.
  2. 100
    Midway has perfectly translated SPY HUNTER into the 3D world and everything feels just right.
  3. It manages to bring this classic drive-and-shoot arcade game into the next-generation of polygonal gaming without losing the core appeal of the original.
