Great Game!

This game my not be for everyone, but it sure was fun for me! Sure there is a pause for the loading screen every time you start over, but the game play
cannot be beat. And who ever wrote that you can't skip the movies before each level was wrong, just press the "Start" button, it skips them every time. It has taken me about an hour to finish each movie, a long time compared to some games, but that's what makes it fun. And sure I have tossed the controller
across the room a few times in frustration, but in the end all the levels are finshable. It just takes some time. If you do rent this game, take a few days and really learn it, because if you do you will be as addicted as me! Have fun!

1 Star just because it's hard?

I don't understand why people give only 1 star to a game because it's hard. Games are meant to be a challenge. Games are also meant to be rated on graphics, control, replay value, etc. The game does need a little more replay value, but other than that the game's great! I agree completely wth the gamer from Brooklyn on this. This game shouldn't have a 3-star rating because of it's difficulty.

FRUSTRATING...but money aint free!

1st to point out, this game IS a small let-down unless you are a true genius in games. However, it got me hooked. The first few levels were quite easy, so I got passed them after a few tries. But it gets more and more difficult later on. However, MONEY AINT FREE. Obviously the creators of this game were trying to bring a stuntman's career into a game. Therefore, this game involves doing things OVER AND OVER AND OVER AND OVER again. It is basically just a like a movie. It's normal to repeat takes.

The graphics aren't too shabby either..certain things are quite realistic. Though, there are obviously certain things that need improvements as well. For example, the vehicles' physical damage is a disappointment... great to see bumpers and small pieces flying off. However, that is about it. The worse you can possibly to do a vehicle is having the side panels or doors flying off (even only after a couple relatively minor hits!), while the rest of the the frame and the vehicle is in near-perfect shape. They made it as if all those parts are clipped onto the cars. It would have been a lot better and more realistic if say, major dents; a twisted or crushed front/rear end...or roof, after rolling over a few times. Overall, probably a 3.5 out of 5 for the graphics. The replays and movie trailers are quite enjoyable to watch as well, though not overly great.

Timing is a big factor as well, so it may involve some throwing controls or kicking the TV. I do agree with some people complaining how this game has been made a little too difficult, especially with the unmerciful clicking clock. It is the most frustrating when you are 1 or 0.5 a second away from reaching your final destination...and you have to start all over again. But I can assure you will get used to the tracks, etc...though possibly after a million times at the harder levels :-) Though I would still say that is another part of the game that needs a little improvement...

Other than these, and a couple recording and signage errors in the snowmobiling levels, the game overall is pretty good despite the fact that I have pointed out more negatives than positives. It is something a little different from many other car games. If you are into stunts, and doing jumps....and patient, you may enjoy it.

Good idea but to hard

This game is by far the hardest one I have ever played. but I did beat the game it just took me a million times on each level to get through after ripping the game out of my ps2 several times and throwing it across the room. Buyer's beware!! this one is HARD!!!!!

Patience is a virtue

I give Stuntman 4 stars because it is a good game. The only problem is that it is rediculously hard. You need alot of patience with this game. Ive had this game for a long time and still havent finished it. Ive lost interest in playing it because the last level is just too hard, and i dont have any more patience for this game. Another con is the long loading. It has to load every time, whether it is starting the scene over or going from one cut scene to the other. They take so long. But once you get past the difficulty and loading time, the game is pretty good. The graphics arent the best but are very good, and the controls are pretty responsive. The movie titles are kinda funny too.

awsome game

I don't think the game deserves an average customer review rating of 3 so people will think it's mediocor. This is up there with the best like Grand theft auto vice city, wwe Smack Down! here comes the pain OR THE GREAT PLATFORM GAMES...

The problem with this game are the graphics(aren't the best). There's the most trile and eror ever in a video game and I like that because every time I failed I couldn't wait to replay the car stunts after the anoying loading times, nobody wants to complete a game in a day. My friend who is okay at video games took 2 - 3 hours to complete a stunt(by failing alot)in the second movie(the one where you drive your car go over a roof through a chimney then through a middle of a train).

People are putting it down because it's hard(this world is not made of hardcore gamers). A game that's easy(Ninja Gaidan on xbox)is being called hard and that's is wrong(except for final difficulty and people still complain over normal and hard).


Terrible !!!

This game offers the realism of a sprite based megadrive driving game, the fun of hitting yourself over the head with a lead weight, the visuals of a naked 100 year old, the sound of a badly dubbed kung fu movie

YES, I'M DUMB AND WHITE AND I HATE STUNTMAN

I am so glad I rented this game before I bought it. It is awful. It is so hard and there is no way to change it. In fact, even when the do finally complete a mission, usually after hours and hours of frustration, you figure out it wasn't fun. This game is just not fun. You cannot make a single mistake or you have to start all over and the load times are unbearably long. After 2 days of having it, I took it back. You have no idea what you are supposed to do until you have failed the mission 5 or 6 times. Also, when you have to chase a car, nothing happens to it but all of the AI cars try and hit you. It is rediculous.

Do yourself a favor and get something else, anything else if you want a good game because this one will do nothing but frustrate and annoy you.

Please, waste your money somewhere else

This game is super bad. It is difficult and very frustrating. Unlike some games where the challenge is figuring out the puzzle, this game makes you repeat and repeat the same move over and over. The load times are very long and very frequent. I'm sure if you spent years you could get good at it. In my opinion, a game has to be a little fun at first or who else but a masochist will want to play it.

This game literally made me furious. To be fair, driving games usually aren't my cup of tea, but this game is a real turd. The graphics are good, not great, but solid. The only good thing about this game is that I rented it.

If you like extremely hard driving games that take months to master, then this is right up your alley. If you like games that are fun and that you can play the first night without getting very angry, then stay away from this game.

I hated it, I'm going to rent Way of the Samuri again, that is an awesome game.
