  1. The little details like glass shattering, reflections and shadows, and even exhaust, are meticulous enough that it just took my breath away. I love how this game looks, period.
  2. The game should last an average player quite a while with plenty of hidden secrets and bonuses for completion.
  3. The results are nothing short of astonishing. It's nice to see Springfield get the respect it deserves. [Oct 2003, p.134]
  4. Hit & Run is so good at capturing the show's spirit and copying a great game ["GTA"] that it turns out to be real, honest-to-God fun for anyone who digs the show. [Oct 2003, p.140]

    This was a pretty cool came. The first few levels were absolutely awesome, but soon became routine. I did like this game, an wicked rental, but probably not worth purchasing. Expand
