Bad graphics and poor game play

When I went to pick up my copy of Agent Under Fire the salesperson talked me into buying Spy Hunter. When I got home and tried it I was very disappointed. Every level is pretty much the same thing so the game is very repetitve and get boring really quickly. In addition to that problem the graphics are horrible. The backgrounds are and trees are completely two dimensional and the enemy soldiers look like cardboard cut outs. They are two dimensional and don't more at all. All in all this game is horrible don't waste your time or money. The driving levels in Agent under fire are better than this entire game.

this game is stupid!

I rented this game an couple of weeks ago, and was EXTREMELY dissapointed. The graphics are sloppy and the car handles like a 30 year old junker form the junkyard. It slides around on turnes, and accelerates very poorly. For some "super souped-up" spy car, it isnt very impressive. The gameplay is poor, and the weapons control is hard to learn between guns and defensive weapons. DO NOT BUY THIS GAME!
The movies between levels are very bad and

Those 3 words are- sloppy,stupid, and ugly. After playing this game, I am so happy that I bought 007 instead. As you know both are ports of ps2 games, with one major difference- james bond has actually been improved on, and spy hunter has been cut up. It is an extremely sloppy port from the ps2 version. Graphics just plain stink, pretty much no real damage to anything at all, and it gets boring faster than the levels can load. There are driving levels on james bond, and, sad to say, they are better than this whole game! And you get to shoot suff and have multiplayer. But seriously, on the driving 007 levels there is real damage and all the weapons and gadgets of spy hunter, so just get it and have fun running into ped cars.

Horrible and Agonizing Gameplay

There is no question this is the worst racing game I have ever played. Extremely difficult and frustrating to play, its just NOT fun. I returned the five day rental after 2 hours of torment. Great racing games: F-Zero (Super Nes), F-Zero X (N64), Crusin USA (N64), Rumble Racing (PS2) (cheesy graphics but fun gameplay), Tokyo Extreme Racer (Dreamcast) (Fantastic graphics and gameplay). :)

This game was the worst game for GameCube I have ever played!All of the levels were too easy and everything about it was bad.

The worst game I've ever played--including those on my C64

The game is horribly frustrating on PC/Mac platforms because it lacks the ability to save in the middle of a level. Thus the game becomes a play-fail-try again endless loop if you miss the tiniest part of a particular level.

Just utter garbage. I would *literally* rather watch an hour of white noise on TV than wish this game on anyone.

If you liked the original spy hunter, you'll probably not like this one. as in dont go and buy this game just because the first one was fun. IT [IS TERRIBLE]! Plain out. the graphics are very poor and i know the gamecube can handle more than that. and all the levels are the SAME MISSION! it's always do this do that repeat! i wouldn't even recoment renting this game, go get James Bond (much better game!) But do what you want, i cant force you to not make the same mistake i did.

2 stars is all it desirves

Unfortunately, I was one of those idiots who bought Gamecube over PS2. I bought SSB:M, Rogue Leader, THPS3, Spy Hunter, and Cel Damage. Spy Hunter is the worst game of them all! The levels are too dark. The graphics on the otehr hand arent that bad. The weapons are too limited. The movies are horrible, especially the Saliva one! I bought this game knowing nothing about it. I regret I spent the [money] or so on this "game". The Multiplayer mode isn't fun at all. They need a deathmatch or something! I don't find killing a bunch of chickens fun (though I do find it quite amusing)! Trust me, this game is a total waste of money, no exceptions.

Horrible, horrible frame rate

The game starts out great. The training missions are fast, smooth and fun. I have to assume that all the high reviews are from people who've just started playing it.

The problem is, once you start the actual missions, the frame rate seems to drop noticably, presumably because of all the extra objects the game has to draw. Not only that, but the frame rate becomes uneven, which makes targeting anything while on the move rather annoying. The pixelated graphics don't help, and the faux-3D is rather obvious.

When you compare it to (say) "Burnout 2", it's clear that very little effort was spent to get the game running acceptably on the GameCube. I've seen smoother graphics on PS2 games (I own both systems). Definitely one to steer clear of.

This game is ok.

I used to own this game for my ps2, and it was good when I first got it, but then by the time I got to the tenth level, I realized that every level was almost exactly the same. The primary objective in each level was the only thing different, but the secondary objectives were almost the same in every level. Find all the satcoms, blow up all the radar towers, place a tracking device on all the trucks; all of it got really old and I found myself not wanting to play it. Some people may like repitive arcade shooters like this one, but I'm not crazy about it. My advise to you is just to rent this one before you buy.
