"Spy Hunter" will run nationally, and pop culture enthusiasts everywhere are sure to rejoice, as the spot is largely inspired by the massively popular action/driving game of the same name from the early 80s. (The object of the game was to drive an armed sportscar and destroy enemy vehicles while protecting civilian vehicles.) In the Pontiac spot, the mission is the same, with the G8 starring as the hero car. The spot enjoys several of the same top-down vantage points as the original game -- and gives people a look at what this "world" would look like in 3D from other angles. Perhaps most enjoyably for enthusiasts, the "Spy Hunter" music (an arrangement of the Peter Gunn theme) plays a major role in the spot as well.
