Customer Reviews

Great 2 player game, good bargain, but....
Suprisingly, this is a fun game IF you have 2 players and a light gun. I play it in 2 player mode, with a controler(for driving) and a light gun for player2 to do the shooting. This is what makes the game fun. There are 3 seasons, with 6 episodes in each season. There are primary objectives and bonus objectives to complete. Again, what makes this game fun is the 2 player mode (with a light gun). The reason I give it 4 stars is the fact that there are few 2 player Co-op games out there where 2 players have a totally different role. Both must work together to be successful. One must drive, perform stunts and keep the car steady so that the other can aim and shoot with precision...both aspects of the game are equally important, and if one does poorly, you will have a hard time accomplishing the required tasks. So teamwork is important, and there are few games with fun Co-op modes such as this. Also, this game is a fair price for what it offers. Graphics are okay, but the sound gets a little redundant after a while.

HOWEVER, if you plan on buying this game for single player and expect it to be as fun...don't bother. It isn't very good as a SP game. This game gets TWO stars as a single player game, as your shooting is set to auto aim, and the shooting is controlled by pressing the A button. The auto-targeting system just aims at the nearest target, which ruins the experience that you get from Player 2 blasting away with a light gun. Starsky and Hutch are a team...and this is exactly the way this game was meant to be played. Single player mode isn't even half the experience.

This game is also compatible with a steering wheel. I'm sure the 2 player experience would be even better with the gun and wheel combined. However, investing in a gun and wheel for this game alone isn't worth it. If you already have a light gun and/or wheel for other games, then definatly pick this game up. Get it used...or new. Even new, it is a great price...but remember...make sure to get this if you have a buddy to team up with(and the light gun is key)

I use the XBOX light gun from innovation technologies and it works great, and the game is compatible with any licensed XBOX light gun.

Starsky and Hutch game
This game is really fun. The only bad part is that you cannot get out of the car. That isn't too bad, because you can shoot out the window and pick new weopons even though you are in the car. Anyway, this game is really fun and I reccomend it to anybody who is reading this.

HORRIBLE
This game has to be the worst game ever!!! This game does'nt even deserve a star it's so bad!!!! This game is not worth one penny of what it's worth!!! Parents if you ever liked Starssky and Hutch you will hate it after you drive the world's slowest car around!!! Take it from me and stick to Halo or something!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
