I don't think you should do reviews anymore. You had someone standing in front of the tv, you don't back up your claims of why the game is bad (boring this and boring that, but why is it bad?) and you just basically showed one race. I wouldn't do reviews again because it's not very good.

Thanks for actual improvement suggestions.

1) The video isn't mine. I thought, other than the fat guy, it showed the gameplay quite well, most races are incredibly similar in this game outside of the environments being different.

2) I should probably have explained that the game is extremely generic - nothing feels "cool" or "awesome" about it like a cool game of Twisted Metal/Burnout/Need for Speed does. That's what I was going for when I said "boring".

Feelings are important, but they can be swayed. For instance, a gamer with a nostalgia value going into spyhunter might think it's actually pretty cool since this is a portable version of something they obsessed over in the arcades when younger. While it won't be for everyone, it's worth noting.

Also, I'd like to know about the actual driving. How is the handling, the response rate of acceleration, etc. Does the story have cutscenes or anything other than text walls?

[BlueMaximaC099]

All feelings and therefore opinions in this video are my own. If people act on my own opinion by not buying this game, fine. Buy Spy Hunter on PS2 if you need a fix.

Driving sucks, the turning isn't responsive and you tend to skid all over the place. The game gives you a crappy boost, pass someone and they catch up to you as soon as you turn it off. No real story cutscenes, just text walls.

And if it makes you feel any better I generally improve my videos by trying again with fresh feedback. Did you see the first one/two weeks of the Weekly Updates? They really needed a tune up after the first one, but after I did that...well, I don't think I need to comment on how they've come along.

I thought this game would be budget priced when it came out. When I saw the $40 price tag I lol'ed

i got this game for free at gamestop for purchasing a liberation vita bundle

This guy sounds like a tool that's just pissy cause it doesn't have a multiplayer mode. This game is challenging, great use of Vitas features, NOTHING about this game is boring. Best game on the Vita by far!!! Multiplayer whiners won't like it, and people that hate a challenge will be like this guy....as a 36 year old gamer that's been playing 25 years straight, I can say this game is GREAT, don't let this guys "bad mood day" make you miss this game...

What the F are you talking about? The PS2 versions were ALL nightmares..this is a blessing compared to those horrible messes. Well organized, never once stuck on me or broke up graphically. Just wish the game was worlds longer than what it was...greatest game on the Vita YET! and that's from a 25 year straight-hard core gamer.
