With its awesome gameplay, its slick presentation, and the classic theme of the '83 coin-op respected in full, Spy Hunter for the PlayStation 2 is one of the biggest surprises of the year.

John Woo - Famous Chinese People - Chinese The film's trenchcoat/sunglasses fashion sense, and combat style of using a gun in each hand in close quartersandmdash; often referred to as 'Gun fu'andmdash; would later inspire Hollywood filmmakers such as Quentin Tarantino and the Wachowski brothers.

CBn Forums -> Spy Hunter: The Movie (2005) From what I've heard and seen, it was basically a standard sword and sorcery film that would have simply gotten lost in the shuffle if it had been released in the mid eighties when the genre was really popular. I find it difficult to see how any film could be claimed by all to be the worst film in the world.

Fugitive Hunter (ps2: 2003): Reviews Fugitive Hunter seems to utilize random nonsensical damage, instead of the “target specific” kind, and the game’s defamation of the law of physics and its shoddy collision detection makes it seem like you’re constantly trekking through Jello. If only Fugitive Hunter, the game, wasn't saddled with broken missions, pathetic animations, a sorry fighting system and a sorrier button-mashing mode. Other than intentionally funny games like "Day of the Tentacle" and "Monkey Island," I don’t think I’ve ever laughed more at a game than I did at Fugitive Hunter. www.metacritic.com /games/platforms/ps2/fugitivehunter
