I think I just found the new wallpaper for my computer.
I'm with you on adapting colonel Sun into a Video game, Or even any one of the better continuation novels. But i don't want the likeness of any Bond actor for that character. Motion capturing and Story telling in Video games has evolved so rapidly in the last ten years that now the Video game James Bond could be entirely his own character. that way a game series could be created that Has it's own identity and is somewhat detached and free from the Movies. Think of the Arkham series that also Has its own look for all the characters.
The Same thing was done in the new Bond Comic series from Dynamite and I thought that was briliant.
Give him a little scar on the cheek and he's good to go ;)
The issue is apart from hard core bond fans like us most want to play a recognizable bond actor and even though many will praise Arkham series for its original take on batman was it really that original when both Conroy and Hamil came back?
While I can understand the want of an original bond the games the truth is most casual fans of the characters only associate the games with the films and the 6 actors to play him (though I would laugh at the idea of a David Niven 007 or Barry Nelson 007 video game) like I said I understand the comic books and novels are their own thing this is true but EON won't allow it nor should they the video game and film franchises should feed off each other and help promote the franchise in general. When done well it can help fans enjoy their favorite character case in point during the mgm hiatus (which we are again in now) it allows to ease the pain but get fans their bond out put video games like Everything or Nothing Goldneye 007 (2010) and Bloodstone allow Eon to move forward with their bond licence while the franchise is in a sort of limbo and it gives new original stories with those actors we love and enjoy. Doing Colonel Sun and Licence renewed etc gets IFP interested too and helps promote all elements of the bond franchise
1. Keeps EON invested and keeps fans happy showing bond in new original stories while MGM basically does nothing
2. Keeps IFP happy as they can rerelease the bond novels the games are based on
3. Keeps gamers happy with engaging stories and fun gameplay
Everyone wins!!!!

Thats the best yet, very good @Murdock.
Thank you @fire_and_ice. :D
Yes I had the most difficult time with this one as EON is packed with so many great moments It was hard figuring out how to represent all the best ones not toe mention finding a good backdrop to use. I've had a great time working on these though. FRWL the game version will be fun to do next. :)
Maybe a slight nod to Ghost Protocol with the Kremlin, (assuming thats the Kremlin) in the back drop. ;) I can imagine, no doubt alot of attention on the theme of the game itself brings elements into focus.
I didn't think about that, great find. I'm very happy with how it came out. Makes me wish they were movies now.
Oh AUF. The Bond game that should of been a movie IMO.
It certainlty had a good narrative.
Its amazes me and this is not exclusive to Bond, many games over the years are written superbly in some case better than similar films.
