GOOD DAY TO YOU TOO!
Yeah, oddly enough, reading back through this thread, even though I really dislike the movie, I'm rather excited for Die Another Day. The first time In 8 years in fact. I've always thought that Die Another Day would work better in game form. It's pretty much a video game anyway. Nice to see Stevens back, too.
The thing is though, I can't shake off the feeling that 007 Legends is going to turn out to be a mess. It just comes across as generic shooter to me. Entertaining enough, but I'm sick of the COD rip offs making the rounds lately. It feels like a cheap cash in overall. No doubt I will enjoy playing it. I just want a more stealth based Bond game. Something to tear it apart from the other generic shooters out there. It has so much potentional and yet they always seem to go down the same route. Just try something new! I hated Rogue Agent, but atleast they tried something new and original.
Activision have not impressed me so far. I'd rather Bond go to Rockstar, or even back to EA. Atleast their games felt 'proper Bond'. Everything or Nothing, etc.
The rest is crap.
By controversial, I really mean controversial.
Think about OHMSS, as much as some of us Bond fans love it, there's a huge group out there that hates it. Just look at the box-office numbers it got when it was in theatres.
Moonraker is widely regarded as the worst Bond film, next to Die Another Day. Personally, Diamonds Are Forever is my least favourite, but that's just me. I know plenty of people who would put Moon as their least favourite.
Then go to Licence to Kill. The movie was original supposed to get an R rating. It's arguably the darkest Bond film, and some people slam it for getting away from the Bond formula. It's amongst my favourites, but there are plenty of people here who don't like it.
And finally, Die Another Day. A lot of people hate this one, including me. It has its moments, but they are far and few between. I'm definitely not alone.
As for Skyfall and the unannounced film, I'm not going to make any assumptions.
Your logic is flawed. Just because Sean Bean had no problem with it does not mean that Halle Berry has no problem
I hope it will be fun to find out but at the moment, I fear it will be a mess of a game.
Still I'm interested. It could turn out to be great fun. ...of course on the other hand...it could also really ****.
Oh, and I wouldn't think too much about the timeline. I see it more as a tribute to the series. And after all, it's just a game!
I was being sarcastic. I know that the four currently announced films are controversial, and I was stating why I felt they were controversial (in a few short words or less).
Closing in on Icarus
The Party
Aston Martin Concept
Zao (Clearly Rick Yune.)
But it's stupid. Black woman doesn't equal Halle Berry. They've changed characters before and kept their race the same. There's no way she would've gotten any money out of them.
Graves looks like Toby Stephens and Zao look like Rick Yune. the only one who is obviously different is Jinx.
Edit: So far the only known character changes so far is Blofeld and Jinx.
I think Sanchez might've changed too, since they didn't show him in the trailer for LTK at all.
Or the developers could come up with an original story instead of just remaking old films without the original actors?
I think the idea is cool. I've come to Terms with Craig as Bond in the gameing realm of 007. And since I've wanted to play more games based on classic Bond films this makes me happy. Some of the "original story" Bond games aren't so great either.
Could be.
I don't want to play through classic Bond films without the original actors. And I like the games with original stories (especially the films with their own theme and a gunbarrel), because it makes me feel like I'm in a new Bond film, not one I've already seen.
I love the original GE game, but the reason I prefer Nightfire and Everything or Nothing is because they let me play through a new Bond film. As great as GE was, it was a story I'd seen at the cinema 2 years earlier.
Well I was mainly referring to Agent Under Fire but love Nightfire and Everything or Nothing. However Craig is the established Bond and there going to use his likeness. If 007 Legends used each Bond for there respective mission I think people would have found that confusing and wondered why they don't just use one Bond. I know it sucks but Hey, maybe there will be a cheat where you can play as any of the Bonds.
I bet they're using the likenesses of the actors who chose to return (from the more recent films), and remaking all the rest. Blofeld was probably changed because there are three actors to portray him full body, and they want a unified look.
