Product Description
VIDEO GAME VERSION.On paper it sounds like the easiest game to make in the whole world. Take everybody's favorite hicks-n'- car-chases TV show, the Dukes of Hazzard, and turn it into a mission-based driving game. There'd be all sorts of things you could do like running from the law, racing, wrecking cop cars... uh... running from the law some more... the list goes on and on. The game's story is told through pre-rendered cutscenes, which use some of the real voices from the old TV show. The renders of the characters look downright frightening sometimes by the resemblance. The story moves along from plot point to plot point very quickly. At the beginning you'll just be doing things like stopping carjackers and getting money to the bank before it closes. But the game eventually leads up to a big race and takes a sharp left turn into flashback territory after that, where you'll actually play as a young Uncle Jesse as he tells the story of Black Jack Perril, the game's resident villain.
Editorial Review
It looks like them Duke boys are in a heap o' trouble, and it's up to you to lend 'em a neighborly hand. Based on the long-running television series, this game is a stunt-driving bonanza featuring all your favorite characters, including Bo, Luke, and Daisy Duke, Uncle Jesse, Boss Hog, Cooter, Enos, and the memorable sheriff, Roscoe P. Coltrane. Most of the original cast members have lent their voice-acting talents to the game, including the narrator, Waylon Jennings. The opening sequence and cutscenes between each level are 3-D-rendered dead ringers for the television show, making it worthy of consideration for collectors. Driving missions are simple and fun, with high-flying ravine jumps and dirt-road power-slides. Get behind the wheel of the General Lee (yes, it has the customized horn), Daisy's Jeep, Cooter's tow truck, and Uncle Jesse's infamous moonshine-runner, Black Tillie. Control is not as exacting as it should be, but the CB radio banter and the silliness of it all carry the game far beyond its gameplay. --Jeff Young Pros: - Good re-creation of the television series
- Missions ripped straight from the show such as "get the mortgage to Boss Hog before the bank closes"
- Fun stunt driving
Cons: - The game's challenge lies in its lack of control
- Gameplay is very repetitive

Just a good ol' game February 1, 2006
This game has all of the stuff seen in the Dukes of Hazzard episodes. It's got the General Lee, it's got the voices of Bo Luke and Daisy Duke! It also has one fast paced original Duke a adventure.

This game is fun. The car handling isn't the greatest, but the game makes up for it with how much fun it is. It's not your modern day awesome graphics strategy game, but it's still cool to be able to drive the General Lee at 90 mph down a dirt road while running from sheriff Roscoe. If you're into classic games, and are looking for something to do, you should definately play this one.
awesome! February 15, 2005

well, even though i'm a girl, i've always loved dukes of hazzard. i've always wanted to be in the general lee with bo and luke and daisy. that's why i like this game. you can drive the general lee, and other cars, and pretend to be bo or luke or whoever your favourite character is. anyway, this is my favourite playstation game and i really encourage you to buy it. it's great.
