That's right, finally a game that is better than the excellent Metal Gear Solid has graced the shelves.

The name of the game is Headhunter the new Stealth 'em up/Shoot 'em up from Sega.
First off you can choose whether to blast your way through or you can sneak around snapping enemies necks, either way is just as difficult as the other. The VR missions on Headhunter are actually woth doing; for example completing one of the VR missions you get unlimited ammo for Jack's pistol. This sounds like it would make the game easier and boring but it just means intsead of continually searching for weapons ammo you can just concentrate on finding health and adrenaline. The levels are also huge, while the Psone couldn't handle large levels Headhunter has massive citywide landscapes.

I haven't played that much yet, but you guys are in for a treat when it comes out on the PS2!!!

it doesn't beat Metal gear 2, especially if it's a Dreamcast game.

"especially if it's a Dreamcast game"

You better thoroughly explain yourself, or you're gonna get a verbal thrashing.

Well, Dreamcast games are good, but there is always a better alternative

But Headhunter is coming to PS2 though, it will be essentially the same as the Dreamcast version and is tipped by many in the industry to give metal Gear 2 a run for its money.

Congrats to the initial poster, I think thats the first post I've read promoting a game on one system without it saying "all the other consoles are poo"

Shame Creed had to come along and attempt to drag it down the console wars path :-(

Head Hunter is a good game but it basically copies everythin from MGS but with a different story line and better graphics. Really it's more of a MetalGearSolid 1.5 and i really don't see how it can beat MGS2 which is going to be such a class game.

To be honest i have heard very little about this game, perhaps because its on DC and i have no real interest in that console area.

But from what i have seen it does look rather impressive, i guess its just a matter of when info i released about a PS2 version ill start to take a notice.
