    But what I really hate is the fact that every Bond game bar one has been a shooter when there's so much more potential.

    There's so much more to Bond than gunfights and the odd car chase, and it's a shame that none of the game makers seem to realise that.

    This. I think GE 007 (N64) is one of the greatest games ever made but Bond is not a man who kills hundreds of people before breakfast. I'd love to see a Bond game which gives you the Full Bond Experience, more like an RPG than a shooter (and a little more polished than the Game Boy version!)

    yeah its called Everything or Nothing....

    Everything or Nothing is a fantastic game, and I'd agree with you that it feels more like a 'Bond' game than GE 007 (although I'd deem GE 007 as the superior game).

    However, while I appreciated the clever hand to hand combat and the set pieces were very Bondian (especially of the kind Pierce Brosnan was doing at the time), the driving sections were still very lightweight (although I found the bike section on the bridge to be thrilling) and Bond is still more of a mass murdering soldier rather than a secret agent with a licence to kill. The separate parts didn't gel together as much as I'd like.

    When I talk about the Full Bond Experience I'd like to actually 'play' the sections of a Bond film that usually end up as cut scenes. In Bond games you usually get briefed about your mission with a body of text, with a voice over.

    Wouldn't it be cool if the first section of the game was you entering M's office, speaking with Moneypenny, speaking to M etc.? World building like you see in games as old as Half Life and more recently in the Arkham Batman games? I've not played the Quantum of Solace video game, but I believe I am right in saying the Casino Royale section of the game skips over the poker game in a cut scene. I would much prefer that the game required you to win a game of cards to progress! It would really make you feel like you were 007.

    Bond games don't have to be wall-to-wall action with the occasional stealth section thrown in. The could be so much more.

    Goldeneye N64 - No all Bond actors mode (should have been there) and it was a FPS , which I hate . But still great. TND ps1 - Awkard gameplay , too easy. Agent under fire - Generic Bond (stupid). Nightfire - Too short. EoN - The way Brosnan runs. Heidi Klum voice acting (pathetic). Multiplayer (bad). FRWL - Lock on targeting sucks , should have used Eon's system. Too easy. Rogue Agent - It's not a Bond Game. QoS - No 007 feel , Messed up way of Story telling (flashbacks are so stupid). BloodStone - Happy to see 3rd person Bond back , only to be let down . Too short , Repetive Gameplay , No desicion making. Steals from other games. Ge : Reloaded : Just the fact that Craig gets to be in Brosnan's best film. But still a pretty decent game. 007 Legends - EVERYTHING , the cover art , COD - starring 007 , the score , Again , more flashbacks . And Craig gets to be in other actors films. The worst Bondv game , I'd rather play Rogue Agent.

    @007GAMER, BloodStone is too short? I guess that you didn't play all of it.


    IMO:

    Rogue Agent = 007 Legends from Brosnan's era

    007 Legends = Rogue Agent from Craig's era

    Of course, both of them are in different perspectives and have different angles and all, but that's what i consider in both of them.

    I too share this opinion. :)

    What I hated about AUF and EON, even though both are great games, was they didn't have a proper ending.

    The shit voice actor who they inexplicably hired in Craig's place for Legends. Horrible, wooden delivery the whole way through.

    TND. Had it as a kid and it was pathetic.

    Control on 00 Agent in GE64. Silo, too.

    I enjoyed it somewhat! The gameplay itself was lots of fun, and if they had expanded onto more levels, and given you the ability to do more, I think it would have been just as good as Nightfire or Bloodstone.

    Just keep shooting all the guards. Make sure Natalya doesn't take too much (or really any) damage. That part's a little easier on Reloaded when Natalya has a health bar.
