Epinions FUN driver!

by  BigDaddyG,  Nov 25, 2000
Pros: PURE FUN - awesome crashes
Cons: none
Review: This was the very first title we purchased and it was VERY worth it. Smuggling is big business and you get your chance to run contraband with glee. But don't sit idle because there is a constant onslaught of border patrols, cia agents, fbi agents, army...

Epinions Keeps Interest

by  okchico,  Nov 29, 2000
Pros: simple gameplay, huge levels
Cons: time limits, who needs them?
Review: An off road "free-for-all" where you spend the solo mission based game delivering items from one point to another, using any route you deem necessary.
This game caught my attention only because of the freedom it promised, drive...

Epinions Smuggler's Run -- physically one of the finest PS2 games!

by  ChromeKiller, top reviewer in Games ,  Nov 11, 2000
Pros: Hitting people with your truck and tossing your vehicle off of very high cliffs.
Cons: The game is a tough challenge. The missions also become very repetitive fast.
The Bottom Line: It's an interesting game, and can give you hours upon hours of fun. Be warned, the game can be considerably hard, and many times repetitive.
Review: The lineup for PlayStation 2 games is just endless. And out of the three racing games out so far on the system, this one may be the best choice.

Smuggler's Run places the player with multiple options. Play with a friend against the enemy. Play...

Epinions Good fun or Driver ripoff???

by  KidPanama,  Jan 25, 2001
Pros: Excellent graphics, plenty of missions, great multiplayer fun.
Cons: Very hard, missions can get repetitive, some slight handling problems.
The Bottom Line: I personally think this game is great and highly innovative. Its not for everyone, but then again what game is? You want a challenge? look no further.
Review: The wait is finally over, and Sony's new next generation super system is finally here. So I ask you, what good is a new system without the games that show what the new hardware is capable of??? This is where Smuggler's Run comes in. What other game lets...

Epinions Smuggler's Run: It'll mock your manhood

by  Antimatter,  Mar 9, 2001
Pros: Smokey and the Bandits feel, solid graphics, physics, control
Cons: would have liked more customization options in the multiplayer games
The Bottom Line: Despite the criminal premise of Smuggler's Run, what we have here is a shining example of a game done right because everything is well balanced
Review: Despite the criminal premise of Smuggler's Run, what we have here is a shining example of a game done right. Everything is well balanced: realism vs. game fantasy, graphic prowess vs. performance and challenge vs. accessibility.

Epinions Snuggle Up With Smuggler's Run

by  dangelor,  Jan 24, 2001
Pros: Great graphics, control of vehicle, vast terrains to explore
Cons: Annoying commentator, limited choice of vehicles on beginning missions
The Bottom Line: I highly recommend this game mainly for the amazing way in which the vehicle responds just as you think it would with hill climbing, jumps, wrecks, etc.
Review: Finally! After months of searching, I spotted the last PS2 system on the shelf at K-Mart last weekend and immediately grabbed it. After finding all the accessories I had to then purchase (extra controller, memory, stand!) it was then time to select a...

Epinions Smugglers Run is loads of fun!

by  romanguy,  Nov 10, 2000
Pros: Very playable! 100's of missions
Cons: annoying commentary
Review: I will freely admit that my enthusiasm for this game is probably slightly elevated in light of the disappointing selection of launch titles for the Playstation 2, but of the initial launch titles I have played, Smuggler's Run is by far the most enjoyable...

Pros: Graphics, control, freedom, music
Cons: operator, loading, police
Review: With the title release of the playstation 2, and the screenshots of racers such as Ridge Racer, and Grand trismo many gamers wondered "what would a free landscape racer be like?" With that they the great game of Smugglers Run. The plot...
