Manufacturer's Description
Take on the adrenaline fuelled role of a Hollywood Stuntman as you work for a series of directors over the course of six blockbuster movies.  Each film consists of six scenes and in each one of these you will drive a different vehicle, they all handle differently and will take some practice to master.  Race through the set completing your directors designated stunts, hit them all to achieve the highest rating but you can miss four before you will be forced to reshoot the scene; this allows you to master your runs and become the greatest stuntman in the business.

Your score as a Stuntman is determined by how well you drive, every time you drive close to an object, gap between objects, drift, go airborne or drive on two wheels you score points.

For each manoeuvre you make you add a number to your multiplier.  You have approximately 2.5 seconds from the time you make your first score to add another point to your multiplier, can you link your keep your multiplier going all the way through the level and achieve the highest scores?

Customer Reviews

Don't waste your money!
I am being honest when i say that this game has got to be one of the worst i have ever played. The lame attempt by the developers to turn a lousy racing game into an even worse adventure game by adding an annoying narration and pointles objectives has failed miserably. Even with the so called 'easy mode' switched on some levels are incredibly difficult to complete and you find yourself trying the same level over and over again. Just not an enjoyable game at all, however it does contain good quality graphics, even on PS2 (this is the only impressive feature of this crummy title).

Great sequel
although on the face of it, the actual career section is a bit shorter, there is a much larger amount of things to do other than career. it follows on from the first on doing stunts etc, but with extra things like collecting points to win new things. The graphics are better, and more things happen at once, giving it a more movie stunt feeling

Has two unavoidable faults
The game is reasonably good fun, but there are two huge problems here.

Firstly, the load times. Replaying the same level doesn't take too long to load, but when you complete a level and move onto the next one, you will be waiting for an agonising amount of time.

Secondly, the freeze ups. After 90 minutes playing, the game had locked my PS2 up for the second time. Instead of resetting it, my urge was to just turn it off, and I followed that urge.

I rented this on a whim. I'm very, very glad that I didn't buy it on a whim.
