Headhunter

I just love Headhunter for the ps2, I love everything about it. I would honestly pay top dollar if it was re released and got an extended edition. Because as much as I love playing it, I wished it were way longer.

Headhunter is an action adventure/shooter game released in 2001 for the sega dreamcast, and in 2002 for the PlayStation 2 which is the version I have.

We play as Jack Wade a former employee/headhunter for the ACN (anti crime network) who has woken up in a hospital bed with amnesia. He gets a visit from the daughter of the head of the ACN asking Jack to help catch her fathers killer which Jack finds out about it during a news segment while he's in hospital.

Jack agrees and the game is about going through missions of capturing low level gangsters who are involved as well as figuring out that there are higher forces involved in this conspiracy.

The story was well written, the graphics are phenomenal (for an older game). Compare this to gta 3 (released in the same year) and see how the picture quality compare to each other, you'll see that headhunter destroys gta 3. Fictional Los Angeles looks beautiful, I love everything about it from Santa Monica to Sterns mansion in Beverly Hills. The voice actors did a wonderful job, with unforgettable voices. The character art was well done as well.

I LOVE Headhunter so much and I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in ps2 action adventure games. I also recommend you check out its sequel Headhunter Redemption, both games are so fun!
