Spy Fiction
Spy Fiction
Sorti le 25 décembre 2003 sur PlayStation 2, Spy Fiction est un jeu d'action et d'infiltration développé par Access Games et publié par Sega Europe, Sammy Studios et Access Games. Classé dans le genre aventure, il mêle une action d'espionnage palpitante à un scénario captivant. Le joueur doit adopter l'identité d'autres personnages en volant leur voix et leur apparence, et participe à des mini-jeux dynamiques comme le parachutisme et la descente en rappel. L'équipement inclut des gadgets tels qu'une combinaison de camouflage optique et des prises araignée pour éviter la détection. L'aventure se déroule dans divers lieux à travers le monde et propose deux personnages jouables.
La presse a souligné l'originalité de Spy Fiction. Next Level Gaming a déclaré qu'il s'agissait de « quelque chose de différent et de nouveau, quelque chose qui fait d'un jeu d'espionnage un véritable jeu d'espionnage ». XGP Gaming a noté que le jeu rendait hommage aux maîtres du genre tout en poursuivant sa propre direction. Les joueurs ont également exprimé leur appréciation, certains reconnaissant que le jeu occupe une place particulière dans leur souvenir malgré ses nombreuses imperfections techniques.

Critiques de la Presse (Metacritic)
« Something different and new, something that actually makes a spy game a true spy game. »
« Imitation is the finest form of flattery, and Sammy Studios has gracefully given a nod to the previous masters and has moved on in its own direction. »
« The coolest gadget is the 3DA camera which allows you to take a picture of someone and then emulate them perfectly. »
« You will find comfort in using the mute button. »
« Its crazy camera makes running and gunning difficult, and being stealthy is too much work and takes too much time. Had the game stuck with its unique, brainy moments, it would have been a much better experience. »
« Despite its flaws, Spy Fiction does deliver enough "wow moments" and inventive set pieces to make up for the too-frequent bouts of tedium or spotty AI. [Oct 2004, p.132] »
« Spy Fiction is meant to be fun rather than realistic, but there's a line between playful and head-scratchingly ridiculous. Oh well, at least the flashback aspect of the story works. [Sept 2004, p.64] »
« With a clunky camera and a slightly awkward weapon system the battles consist of throwing grenades and hoping to clear the area as fast as possible. In reality, the game goes much smoother when it deals with one enemy at a time or really just solving all of the puzzles. »

« Maybe I'm a little bias but I genuinely did enjoy this game. It was one of my favorite game to play growing up and while it's not like the most mind blowing spy games out there but personally, I did enjoy it. The missions were fun. I like how different each of the missions' environments are. I enjoy the stealth. And I thought the overall storyline and the twist was pretty solid. Overall, not bad but also not a masterpiece. Still, I'd say this is a pretty underrated long forgotten PS2 game. »
« This is one of that games that makes me ignore all of it's (many) technical flaws. I see that this game is not a simple generic MGS lookalike: it is actually a tribute to espionage game fans, like me, who had a lot of fun playing it several times. To be able to disguise yourself as any NPC, get literally invisible with some tech camo, get up on the walls with a spider grip... This game is a spy experience! A very good one. Unfortunately it has poor execution in terms of development, and will never have a sequel. I'll tell you what, if you asked me how much I like this game, if I was a billionaire I would hire a company to produce Spy Fiction 2. Just for me to play. But the game is so unknown that even this review of mine will probably never be read by anyone. »
« Horrible game, terrible game, it gives me a headache to play this **** Bad gameplay, horrible audio, rotten controls, stupid AI, only acceptable thing is the graphics. Why PS2 has so many garbage games? The problem is not that the game is old and without it being **** Here a list of amazing games that came out in 2003, Nfl 2004, Simpsons hit and run, Manhunt 1, midnight club 2, COD 1........ »
« I loved this game, finished it a lot. I think the story was great and the gameplay was awesome. »
« One of the best PS2 action game that i have played. Good graphic, atmosphere and very interesting story line. This is really one of my favorite PS2 game. »
