Take the helm of the world's most powerful counterintelligence
combat vehicle, the completely redesigned G-8155 Interceptor
complete with new vehicle transformations, including the sleek
snowmobile and four-wheel drive off-road vehicle. Your mission
is to uncover Nostra's sinister plans for world domination
and discover the secrets of a mysterious female agent...
SpyHunter
was
an '80s classic and trying to revisit a long forgotten era
may have been a huge mistake. One attempt, back in 2001, to
bring the game up-to-date was a pretty average affair, but
was certainly more fun than this sequel.
Sadly
this game neither captures the thrill of the original, nor
does it stand alone as a game with any real merit. The graphics
are well below average and the gameplay has a very amateurish
feel to it. When you destroy enemy vehicles they either bounce
unconvincingly across the road, or sink into the ground.
There
has been an attempt to make the game feel fresh by changing
your vehicles appearance as it rides over different terrain.
Sadly, you don't actually have that much control over this.
Sure, you can change your sporty little number into one with
bigger wheels for the rough terrain, or turn it into a bike
(which is a bad idea as you are likely to die quicker) but
this soon becomes rather boring.
The
missions themselves soon get rather repetitive and a tad boring.
Not only that, but the difficulty seems random. One level
can take hours to complete, while the next you may finish
after only a few attempts. Once you've driven around one environment
shooting enemy vehicles, you've seen them all. Even the two
player mode doesn't really add anything extra.
Charging
£30 for this is a crime!
