One of the first driving games to combine driving and shooting at the same time during play. There are 4 weapons that become available during gameplay. Machine-Guns, Oil Slick, Smoke Screen, and Missiles. You can also take a side road during game play and turn the car into a boat, taking the battle onto the water.

Why:
|
You would not believe the story behind this game if I told you but here is the short version.... I was going to buy a Spy Hunter in Maine from an old Arcade Called Noah's Ark Amusements but they sold it out from under me. It worked out ok because the person who picked it up was a friend of mine. The next week this one popped up on Ebay and after MUCH egging on and encouragement from my friends and family I placed a bid and won the game. It is currently at my Dad's house in Maine. Below are a few of the photoshop pictures that people made trying to get me to buy the game. A special THANKS goes out to my MOM. She pitched in some cash as an early Birthday present for me to make sure I could get this game. Without her it would not have been possible. Thanks Mom. Also special thanks to my Father in Law Bob and Nephew David. Without their help I never would have gotten this game out of the basement it was in and through the window. Yes that's right....We lifted it 5 feet in the air and THROUGH a window...
