Amazon.com Product Description
Based on the arcade classic, SpyHunter is a mission-based combat racing game that puts you behind the wheel of the G-6155 Interceptor. Not just any car, the Interceptor is the ultimate counterintelligence prototype vehicle. First, it's turbocharged and ready to go with 845 horsepower for lightning-fast speed. That's not all--there's an arsenal of futuristic weaponry and morphing abilities to turn the car into a speedboat, jet ski, or motorcycle. Basically, it's everything you need to undertake 14 high-adrenaline missions on wheels. Should you choose to accept these daring reconnaissance missions, you'll travel to Panama, England, the Middle East, Venice, and other exotic locations around the world. Each location is rendered with a high degree of realism and provides recognizable landmarks and scenery. Throughout, you're the hunter as well as the hunted, pursued by enemies over land, on water, and in the air. Your mission is to take on NOSTRA, an out-of-control multinational corporation headed by an evil madman who's threatening the world. As SpyHunter, you must always be ready for heavily armed enemy vehicles that lurk around every corner and strike at the first site of the Interceptor. But you have a steady supply of weapons trucks that load you up with machine guns, missiles, lasers, and counterattack weapons such as oil slicks, smoke screens, and cluster mines. Each successful attack gets you one step closer to revealing who SpyHunter is and what he's ultimately after. Next-generation 3-D design, explosive weaponry, high-tech defensive mechanisms, and, yes, the car, all combine to offer pulse-pounding speed and strategy.

 Spyhunter rocks February 28, 2004
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This one of the best PS2 games ever!! Good graphics and storyline, could be better if it had more levels, but that's the only downside. I've just read a review of one star for this saying "you only get one gun" who ever wrote it apparently only played through the training mission, since after that you get upgrades on the gun (10mm to 25mm to 50mm), missles (start with unguided, then guided, and swarm(four at once)), emp(electromagnetic charge-don't get it either, unguided and guided), and rail gun (really powerful and cool laser thing, guided only), and for defensive you've got oil,smoke, and flamethrower to protect your tail end. The extras are a great bonus compared to spyhunter2 which didn't have hardly any and the ruined the spyhunter theme by saliva (see my review for spyhunter2, "12 year old gamer from Hays KS, USA. Anyone who considers themeselves a serious "game king" must beat this before rightfully proclaiming it, I've beat it 3 times in the past weak.
 Not a good game at all! February 7, 2004

I really hated this game for many reasons. Here are some pros and cons:Pros:
- uhhhhhh... (i guess the graphics are ok) Cons:
- No freedom. There is a track you have to follow, but you have to do missions and kill people along the way. Doesn't really make sense.
- No weapons. For a game with no freedom, like this one, you would think they would try to spice it up with some cool weapons or something. Nope. All you have is a machine gun and a regular gun.
- I don't get why your car turns into a motorcycle when your life is low.
- Controls are too complicated. While you are going really fast and trying to complete missions, you have to add more confusion switching your weapons. You would think only having two weapons, it would be easy to switch, but no. This game really doesn't deserve to be a Playstation Greatest Hit. Sorry if I offended any SpyHunter fans.
Excellent game, not too complicated January 23, 2004

Great game, fun, exciting, good graphics- what else is there to say?
This is a great game for beginners, I just got it and have beat a few levels. I am kinda stuck on a level where you have to destroy these towers, but I have only gotten to try it once or twice. (My PS2 is getting repaired!) This is a very fun game and I highly recommend it. ...
A bit restrained,'Grand Theft Auto-Vice City' much better! January 7, 2004

I tried the handling on this car,cycle,not as good as 'vice city'. You have to pass a lot of tests before you get to use the weapons. This game should've had a 'custom mode' to give you all 'cheats' unlocked,that would've made the game better. And you should've had the choice to cruise the city without blowing up or shooting up the place. The 'jet ski',cycle,is a su*ky idea,just not believable,should've been a 'car submarine' instead like 'The Spy who loved me'-James Bond,movie,would've been better. As for pursuit vehicles,should've been limited to regular cop cars,helocopters and other regular transportation. This game should've made you feel like Pierce Brosnan (007),but totally misses the point in being a spy. 'Machine guns',oil slick',smoke screen', great idea,other idea's a bit of over kill,and not believable. If anything I would've rated this game a '2 stars'......
Spy Hunter Review December 16, 2003
This is a good game for people who like blowing stuff up. You start the game doing missions against NOSTRA (bad guy's) in the G-6155 Interceptor (nice car).Before every mission you are told what to do, but sometimes it's difficult to figure out how to do it. After completing a mission you get another weapon or a better weapon!. The controls are a bit difficult at first, but if you don't give up easy, this games for you.
