I haven't tried it with the light gun yet, but even with 2 dual-shocks this is a unique and accessible 2-player co-op game (one drives, one shoots) with decent replay value. I don't think the difficulty can be increased, but it's fun to go back and beat your old scores and play with the unlocked cars. i suppose it could be finished in a rental, but personally I find it's nice to own some simple co-op games like this that you can pop in and play right away if a friend shows up, esp. if that friend is not a hardcore gamer. as a 1-Player game it starts to feel like GTA-lite after awhile, although for kids this one is better because it lacks the mature content.

Good for beginners, too

We just got a PS2 after having no game system at all since the old Atari I had when I was 13. So learning all the "new fangled" controls is a bit tricky. Starsky and Hutch, as well as being a fun game, is straight-forward enough that the learning curve was easy and enabled me to get right into the action without having to die a thousand times just to learn how to maneouvre. As I get better with the controller, the game is still proving to be fun and challenging without being frustrating.

Shoot 'em up and wreck 'em.

I bought this game for my kids. I remembered Starsky and Hutch from television when I was a kid. This follows them in their Ford Gran Torino through 3 seasons. (Other cars become available.) Each mission is basically about destroying the bad guys car, not shooting or smashing the good guys car, and collecting badges and tokens to move to the next season.

Game play is smooth, graphics are cartoon-like. My kids enjoy the challenge of beating the game, but they tire of collecting badges and tokens although with a few runs they can figure out where they are and compete.

Once they beat the game I am not sure they will want to keep playing, but it has held its value for a month now. When they have friends over that is one of the first discs they pull out just for the sheer fun of driving and shooting. It can be a challenge to win.

FUN FOR 3 MINUTES!!!

I thought that this would be a cool game.... So i rented it... i started to play it and it was kind of cool. BUT! after a while i could see that the graphics are horrable... (like ps1) and after the first missin,its like youre just do the same thing over again because the missions are all almot the same.... you just shooting a car trying to stop it... and u can't even see it ur hitting the car because the graphics are soooo bad. Also after a while the saying that they have get really annoying. And the movie sequences suck.... they are just cartoon slides and u can't really can't tell what is going on. So i wouldn't recommend this game, but u can rent it if u want, but u wont be very happy. (i played it for 1 out of the 5 days that i rented it for).

CONS: bad graphics
bad movie sequences
annoying sayings
boring
can't run over people

PROS: cool stunts
u can shoot cars
a good amount of cars to unlock (THATS IT!)

idon't really have it

I dont like this game very much for a couple of reasons. First, you start out with only one car. Second, you must complete a mission first before you can do anything else. Third, it got pretty boring after 30 minutes or so playing it. I recomend you rent this game first before you buy it even though it costs 20 bucks.

Good lightgun game for two players

One player drives with the traditional controller and the other shoots with a Guncon 2. It's lots of fun to work as a team and the driver and shooter both need different skills, so when you switch up it's like a different game. I haven't played the two player game without the lightgun, but if you have one then the game is definitely worth the twenty bucks. The game is much easier as a one player game because aiming the shot is pretty easy compared to the lightgun.

Starsky and Hutch are Cool

This is a hot new game brought back to life thanks to Sony. S&H is a driving game and a shooting game in one. Thats even cooler when you play two player mode. One drives and the other shoots. Don't forget to collect huggie bears to access movies and shorts about Huggie, Starsky and Hutch. Although any game can get repetive after awhile, Remember to take breaks! I give this game 4 stars... Very Good Fun!

I'm Starsky-He's Hutch

Okay here's my disclaimer, I am a bit biased about this game because I am a big fan of the show. When I first heard about this game I went pretty much ape. I thought cool! A game about two of the coolest cops in TV history. I ran out and rented this game first because I wanted to check it out before I bought it. I pretty much liked it right off the bat for a number of reasons. I have to admit that I do wish you could do a bit more than just drive around but since there isn't anything I can do about it I will say that it is fun just the same. I pretty much like the feel of the entire game itself. Very well done. They captured the feel of the show almost dead on. Yeah some times the chatter between Starsky and Hutch does tend to get repetative but it isn't a total negative in my book. There have been bigger transgressions of this and if you've played some of the older Madden titles you'll know what I mean. I personally think that the load times are a bit too much but worth the wait once you're in. About the only time it gets too annoying for me to bear is when I'm doing the extra driving stuff like the races but during normal play it isn't as bad as say perhaps a game like Mafia. Rent it or own it, it's still a good solid game with some unique features to give a player hours of fun and at less than $20 you can't lose.
