This is one of the games I still play on Dreamcast. In an effort to keep the fewest amount of equipment around my tv, I decided to get the playstation version of this game. I must say that I was disappointed in the graphics and how grainy it is. You can't see to far in the distance. I thought it was going to be the same. Oh well. If you've never played this game before, it's still the same fun. I can give it that. I don't want to draw any comparisons to Twisted Metal. I like both. For the price, it's worth a shot but if you still play Dreamcast, get that version instead.

Great game, always a must play

I have always loved this game. I first rented the game back in '98 when I was young and loved it then. Now I am older and I searched all over to just to find the game! I played it again and still loved it. For a PS game, it's graphics are great. The controls are easy and learning curve is about ten minutes, tops. It is truly a great game and I shall play it even when I am older.

Vigilante 8 is good, but 2nd Offense is all that and much more than a bag of potato chips. Some of the new additions include the ability to score new chassis for your cars and wheel attachments that turn your car into a motorboat, a UFO, or a snowmobile. All the characters from the original are back (except 3), although they drive different cars and in most cases have different special weapons. Even Y the alien makes an appearance, this time disguised as a mysterious garbage man scavenging for parts to repair his damaged Luxo Saucer. Some of the new characters include a monkey disguised as an astronaut, a religious fanatic, a ninja, and a robotic cowboy. Every level is interactive to the core and you can rocket into space, cause nuclear explosions, compete in downhill sports and unleash a giant radioactive ant that goes on a rampage through Arizona.
What really sets the V8 series apart from other car combat games is the creative special weapons for each car. Unlike most CC games, the specials in this game are more than just different types of missiles. From spark-spewing disco balls to eagles that cause tornadoes to alien invasions, the specials in this game are all entertaining and fun to use. My personal favorite is the half track's "hades gate" weapon, which causes your car to literally go to hell and back, causing lots of damage during the return trip.
Overall, V8 is a blast to play and the best in its genre. Forget Twisted Metal Black - this is the true king of car combat.

Game's Great, but where's Beezwax?

Oh, yeah, this game is truely great. There's even a feature that let's you play in the first Vigilante 8's tracks! All you have to do is play arcade, (whatever the mode is called, the one besides Quest mode) pause the game, open the console, (I know, it sounds stupid) and insert Vigilante 8 the first one! You should see a sign saying loading disk, (Don't get scared) then you should hear the soundtrack of the first one! Then, when it's done loading, (almost there!) open the console, and put the second one back in! Then quit to the main menu, and look at the tracks. You should see the first game's tracks are there! Anyway, this game is totally cool, the Hovercraft thing gets a little hard to control, but it's cool. Oh, yeah, try going to Arizona, and destroy the lookout tower. It's very funny and interesting. And last but not least, like I said, WHERE's BEEZWAX, MY FAVORITE CHARACTER???!!!!!!!!!

VIGILANTE 8 2ND OFFENSE has a great quest mode that begins a few years after VIGILANTE 8. Two of the main "characters" from that film are involved in a freak "accident" caused by a bit of time travel. The Coyotes who were wiped out at the end of VIGILANTE 8 have returned to wreck havoc on the U.S. economy. The Vigilantes are resurrected and it's up to them to save the day.

The quest mode includes three sets of characters: the Vigilantes, the Coyotes, and the Drifters. In order to see all the scenes of the movie and fill in the story line, you have to beat each character and complete all objectives. The objectives are more difficult than in the original Vigilante 8 game and on the Drifters levels, they are plain absurd. The objective levels with the Drifters are the most difficult to meet and a hint would be to get the crazy stuff out of the way before going on to the more attainable goals.

Anyway, the graphics and controls are all improved from the original game. There are more vehicles, more weapons, and more options. Also, the soundtrack is a little more variable as well. The quest mode is the best thing about this game because you keep playing to unlock all the little movies to find out what happens. However, the two-player modes are a lot of fun to play, too. I really enjoyed playing VIGILANTE 8: 2ND OFFENSE and found it to be even much more fun than VIGILANTE 8.

Great Game, Great Fun

I bought this game used for my Playstation 2 and was almost instantly glad that I did. It is very fun and addictive, especially with a friend. There are many creative characters and vehicles, and each one has its own special weapon and special traits. The graphics are very good too, better than a lot of other PS1 games. There are cool weapons and fun secret areas such as in one level a lighthouse that will shoot you up into the air to shoot and those still on the ground and to land right near them. There are also many cool features like the ability to hover. The only thing bad that I have to say about it is the ability to unlock new cars/characters. It is very difficult and I had a lot of trouble figuring it out. Which is too bad because there are many, many different vehicles from busses to rocket cars to motor cycles. Overall it is a very good game though, and the good parts of the game definately overpower the one flaw.

It's an average game

I have to admit the new vigalate 8 is a good game. It has neat features like hover. What makes the game more interesting with new stuff to add on to the car. It has good combos to blow up cars by hitting the same wepons more than once. The controls are quite easy to learn. But the way to get all the charaters in quest is annoying. But it's a challedge for you. What makes you want to keep playing it untill you get all the new charaters you can unlock in quest. It has upgrades you can get on your car from quest. But the upgrades only work on quest what a bummer. Also they aren't any really good cheats for this game unlike the first one. But I can't disagree with the other people say about this game. It is a fun game what can keep you playing. Plus they have new specail. But of course you think that's ovise if you played the first one. If their a new car they're is a new specail. It's a nice 3-d game also. But in some ways what I said earlier in this review makes the first one a better game. But over all Vigalate 8 2nd offense is a average game. What your whole family can play it's quite easy to play beacause of the controls. So buy it now if you haven't already for a low price ...!
