Spy Hunter Review
It's a solid reinterpretation of a video game classic that adds its own unique elements to the franchise without forsaking what made Spy Hunter what it was.

Spy Hunter falls short of perfection, but is one of the best games in recent memory and a blast to play alone or with friends.
This 2-year-old PlayStation 2 game may have been enjoyable on the PC--had the graphics and gameplay not been compromised so much in transition.
Spy Hunter is an easygoing vehicular combat game with a few unfortunate flaws. But it sure is pretty.
While it's almost identical to the PlayStation 2 version, the GameCube version is made slightly less desirable by the choppy, somewhat pixilated graphics.
