While not perfect----the game is linear and not very difficult---overall
Headhunter is a huge success for the Dreamcast. Taking some of the
best components of some of the best games ever made, the developers
did an excellent job of making the final product a coherent and
enjoyable one. The game is in English so there are no worries there, but
I do advise to save your game often as the game froze on me during
loading segments on more than a few occasions. So, with an enjoyable
storyline, solid gameplay, and great voice-acting and eye-candy (for the
Dreamcast anyway), the positives of Headhunter far outweigh the
negatives. Consequently, I recommend it most highly.

Amuze have created a game which rivals Kojima's opus in terms of excitement and maintains its pace and depth throughout, but it's hardly pick-up-and-play. Pick this game up with a head full of hype and you will wonder why you bothered, but after a while the game hooks you and won't let go. Anything conceivably possible in a world where vital organs are currency and you have a beard, a gun and a motorcycle belonging to a big-breasted billionaire actually happens. It's a dreadful shame that the game won't be released domestically in the States, but we implore any American readers to seek out a copy regardless. Along with everybody else in possession of a Dreamcast. Quite simply, a masterpiece of modern videogame development.

Headhunter is de Syphon Filter van de Dreamcast en ik raad elke trotse DC bezitter aan om deze game op een of andere manier in huis te halen.

"Headhunter" ist ein spannendes Action-Adventure, welches durch die Motorrad-Sequenzen angenehm aufgelockert wird. Die Rätsel sind logisch und man kommt auch ohne Lösungsbuch gut zurecht. Die Story darf als gelungen bezeichnet werden, sie zieht sich wie ein roter Faden durch das gesamte Gameplay. Trotz der eingesetzten Waffen fließt kein Blut, auch wenn schon die ein oder andere Leiche in der Geschichte vorkommt.
So kann man "Headhunter" guten Gewissens empfehlen, insofern man die Altersempfehlung beachtet.

Une note amplement méritée pour ce titre qui réalise le tour de force de mêler différents styles de jeu de façon parfaitement homogène. L'atmosphère est aussi prenante que le gameplay est efficace. Un titre indispensable qui vient se placer sans conteste aux côtés des meilleurs jeux Dreamcast.

Sammanfattningsvis har Amuze inte skapat ett spel som utmanar Hideo Kojima, snarare ett som visar hur mycket de beundrar honom. Detta till trots är Headhunter ett snyggt och underhållande äventyr som tack vare bra dialog och påhittiga uppdrag känns som mycket mer än en simpel klon. Alla som äger en Dreamcast och väntar på nya fantastiska äventyr bör köpa Headhunter, som antagligen är det sista i sitt slag till maskinen.
