Midway Spyhunter X Box Racing Review

Midway Spyhunter


Description
Get behind the wheel of the G-6155 Interceptor for high-speed, mission-based racing in exotic locales. While operating your SpyHunter Interceptor, you are relentlessly pursued by hordes of air, ground and water enemies as you battle to accomplish your missions and save the world from the mind of a madman. A remake of the arcade classic, SpyHunter boasts ultra-realistic 3D graphics, real-world locales and the only vehicle capable of morphing into a boat, jet ski or motorcycle. Explosive weaponry and impressive defensive mechanisms combine with intense speed and strategy to distinguish SpyHunter from routine combat racers and traditional action racing games.

Summary:
What a horrible rendition of SpyHunter this game makes me want to puke. These a-holes left out everything in SpyHunter that made the original fun. I've probably played more hours of the original than anyone, plus I'm a hard-core gamer with over 45 Xbox games so I know the good ones from the bad.

Back to the issue. Anyone here who remembers playing the original can appreciate how relaxing the game was to play. You'd drive your vehicle and have the time of your life. This sequal, what a laugh, is mission based. What a stupid concept that ruins any simularities to the original.

Remember how cool the weapons vans were to drive into, and how the computer would randomly choose which weapons you'd get after making successful entry into the van. Remember how fun it was to run cars off the road, or to poor down an oil slick or smoke shield and watch the cars slide off the road. Those were the best parts of the game, which are all missing in the dumb sequal. This in nothing more than an ugly version of Bloodwake because offensive weapons are the only cool part in here.

The rearview mirror is a joke. It's like electronic so you can't see smoke or oil or anything much out of it.

The developers who made this are still wet behind the ears and have no idea of what made the original so great. They should have at least consulted with people who did, but obviously they just wanted to make another run-of-the-mill Xbox title and slap on the name to rip people off. Very typical. Thanks Midway you pricks.

Summary:
I love the game. I have the game for both Playstation 2 and Game Boy Advance. I have to agree with the previous reviewer that the objectives are tough, but if the game was not challenging, it would be boring.

Summary:
Well, the game's idea itself is attractive. Sorta like James Bond doing his missions, but always only in a car that can travel on land or sea. The idea is great, but I don't think Midway did a great job bringing such an idea to life.
