This game is a great game! It is full of exciting tracks that seem to go on for ever and insane graphics that make this game very realistic but at the same time a great virtual game. If you are looking for a game that has you on the run from the law or just plain offroading it than this is the game for you. Trust me this game will blow your mind. For all of you who are thinking of buying PS 2 get this game for it and you will not be dissapointed.

THE premier PS2 launch game!!

There is no disputing that if you're into gameplay originality, incredible next generation graphics, and multiplayer fun - Smuggler's Run is the best of the PS2 launch lineup. Conceptually: smuggling contraband past border patrol versus police and rival smuggling gangs - can you beat that? Rockstar does it again. This is one of 3 games Im purchasing for PS2 launch - and the one Im absolutely most excited to play.

Smugglers Run ROCKS

A friend has a modified import PS2, the game is already for sale. SO i bought it even though who knows when I will get my PS2. Anyway, the game is simply amazing, in graphics and play.

From what I've seen most of the new PS2 games' graphics don't look much better than dreamcast but Smuggler's Run does. Cool game modes even though I don't have them all mastered yet. THe police are vicious!!

Cool game, can't wait to get my PS2.

Oh yeah

A hybrid of the realism of Driver and the sick twisted objectives of GTA comes an unexpectedly cool Smuggler's Run. I'm the first to admit that...sure the drug smuggling and being chased by cops while trying to deliver the goods is great and exciting, but what I really enjoyed was the joyriding. Just driving responsibly and WHAM, run over a hiker. Or WHAM a train. Or flying down a snowy hill to ram a camper van into a frozen lake. Oh it's fun. A Tipper favorite for sure. All it needs to make it a perfect game is a little more GTA blood and guns sprinkled with some Twisted Metal/ Vigilante 8 massive weapons of destruction. I bought three other games at launch: Tekken,Orphen,and Ridge Racer but Smuggler's Run has taken up the bulk of my gameplay time. BUY IT.

Crazy Taxi in the mountains

This game is just like crazy taxi except you don't have to stop to pick anybody up. The arrow is the same, you just have to drive and pick things up and drop them off. No stopping, find the triangle of lights and drive through it. One problem, you got cops to worry about, they can ram you like there is no tomorrow. You can run over deer, run into RV's and watch the driver fly through the window, and many more. It's fun and challenging.

A highlight in the lackluster initial release games pack!

So far this is the only game that i bought when i purchased my PS2, and i'm glad i chose this one. Not only is the premise of it great, but the graphics are just mindblowing. No fogging of the backgrounds at all, anything you see you can drive to and on. Don't even get me started on how much fun it is to run over the hikers and the cops blocking my path.

I highly reccommend this game, hours and hours of fun. It also has a good amount of 2 player options and gameplay choices. Only problem i've found so far is the soundtrack is pretty weak.

Not as fun as it looks

The idea that this game is based on is easily one of the best that any gamer has ever seen. But, this game was VERY poorly executed and gets quite boring extremely fast. The graphics are quite smooth and fast but it gets boring going from point A to point B. There are some missions where you have to go back and forth picking up things, but that gets confusing and me and my best friend found ourselves trying to figure out what exactly we were doing. If you are thinking about buying this game-- Rent it first.

This is the best game ever!

Better than the Gran Turismo series! This is the only game I can honestly say that about! If you haven't played this yet, you're missing out... This is a Kick-A** racing game without the limits of a course!

Where's the beef?

This game sports great graphics. Beautiful worlds but no beef. This game will leave most gamers quite bored after about two hours of gameplay. All you do is drive from point A to point B. What this game really needed was weapons, enemies, and a variety in objectives. If you're thinking about this game, rent it or wait for a better game of its kind to come out.

Great Game--definitely buy this one!

The graphics--awesome, game play--too much fun (especially running over the cops), sound--a little repetitive (The female voice says the same things quite a lot). Overall, a must have for the PS2 owner. If you liked Crazy Taxi for the DC, then you will love this game.
