  1. Special appearances by Benny Hill and a Quicy Jones soundtrack should help clinch the deal.
  2. The improved graphics, intense action and the Guy Richie-style crime story is what makes this game worth getting your hands behind its wheels.
  3. Despite some rough edges, it makes for a fun ride that justifies the budget price.
  4. The quality of every component of the final product - from graphics and sound to vehicle physics and gameplay - is uniformly dismal.

    Good game, easy play. Easy to beat, and the other challenges not all that great, though. Even free drive mode can't really save this game.
  4. It's definitely got the potential content to be a fun game, but the execution is disastrous. The graphics are aweful, there numerous bugss & glitches and the whole game comes across very cheaply made. However, the story and gameplay are on the right lines. It's just badly programmed. Expand
