The FPS's non-stop arcade-style shooting is a fun break from a wave of "press yourself flat against the wall and look around the corner" sneak-around titles, but the clunky third-person fighting you have to do to take down the level bosses is goofy.

This game is not very realistic and tries to combine arcade elements with a solid FPS backdrop and what happens is that this game looks contrived and stilted...This is a game to avoid.

Gave me a negative vibe with the way it portrayed people of minority races and foreign cultures and the condescending manner in which the badass cop goes about his business. We have enough fear and hatred in this world already, we don’t need to breed more.
Read Full Review >Gamezilla!
Almost every aspect functions at an extremely low quality level with controls that are jerky, continually re-appearing enemies in the most unlikely places, and seriously weak AI.
Read Full Review >GameSpot
It's a short game with bland mechanics, repetitive levels, and almost zero replay value, and that's not even taking into account the total absurdity of getting into a fistfight with Osama Bin Laden.
Read Full Review >IGN
Not the worst first-person shooter out there by a long shot, but it dives pretty low.

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. All that and no multiplayer. Bummer.

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.

It just isn't any good. With so many gameplay problems, lack of challenges, and an absolute treaure trove of better FPS titles out there for PS2, there's no reason to give this one a second thought. [Jan 2004, p.46]
Official U.S. Playstation Magazine
If only Fugitive Hunter, the game, wasn't saddled with broken missions, pathetic animations, a sorry fighting system and a sorrier button-mashing mode. [Jan 2004, p.118]

What do you get when you cross a really bad FPS with a sloppy 3D fighter? A coaster. Fugitive Hunter is a holiday embarrassment and should be avoided at all costs.
Read Full Review >G4 TV
Fails on its own with boring level design and sloppy, unsatisfying gameplay. The vulgarity of the setting just makes it worse.

Consider this a bottom-line on the gaming barometer – a reference point where gaming simply does not get any worse.

Broken missions, pathetic animations, a sorry fighting system, and a sorrier button-mashing mode.

One word: awful. The graphics, nauseatingly awful. The music, ear-splittingly awful. The shooting, mind-numbingly awful. The hand-to-hand combat...can't even be desrcibed in words it's so awful. You'll want to kill yourself after playing 5 minutes of this, and you'll have the motivation to go get the noose once you start fist-fighting Osama Bin Laden. If any respect for yourself, or the human race. You will never buy this game, never rent it, never look at it and if you must look, make sure you spit on it.

Ross G. gave it a 10:
I have no idea why this is getting bad reviews. Buy it
Robert gave it a 9:
I liked it it gets back to the basics but adds a little so i think it deserves better then what people are saying, don't judge the game by its other competition play it and think about only it.
