They also break up the intensity of the shooter levels which I found took a bit away from them as they were distracting. The cars and the way they handle are good and in general they are a lot of fun. For the most part you will be guided through these levels by a series of objective related tasks that are pretty lenient and linear. Good voice acting has been provided for many of the characters and they will call out when they see you etc. The animations for enemies are smooth and realistic as is their general contact with the game world around them. Nightfire is greatly improved in that regard also. I found it slightly annoying how it so obviously told you what to do. There are various fire modes for each weapon and unlike Agent Under Fire, there is not a dummy system that holds your hand when using gadgets. Left/Right was for weapons and Up/Down was for gadgets. I especially admired the easy way you could switch from one item to the next by using the D pad. The weapons used in the game are varied as are all of the obligatory Bond gadgets. I found myself switching between the two for the sake of this review, however would most likely use the manual option to make things a bit harder for myself if just playing the game normally. The auto aim is not a dummied version and you really have to be close to hitting them before it guides the rest of the way. There are two aiming types, auto aim and manual aim. The controls as I have mentioned are excellently set up and also very responsive to the commands of the player. We will now cover these elements in more detail so you know what you are getting yourself into.įor starters the real cream of the title is the first person shooting element. These are simply first person shooting, driving and on rails shooting. There are three main ways to achieve this and all are in keeping with the fine traditions of the 007 franchise. The aim of the game is simple as are the general objectives of most of the 007 movies: get the bad guy, get the girl and save the world. I personally found that the default controls were more than sufficient to get me through the game just fine. If you are not happy with the default configuration, then there are multiple options there to satisfy everyone. Combine that with awesome vehicles and weaponry, along with the usual hot Bond girls and there is a combination that can't go wrong.įirst let's start with controller setup. Nightfire is the second best thing to that title however and the amount of sheer polish and gameplay options makes for a very cool gaming experience.Ĭommencing with a very slick Full Motion Video and excellent music, Nightfire will immediately absorb players within the Bond universe with it's signature Bond music and of course the almost perfect digital replication of the Pierce Brosnan Bond. For five years no one has matched the game experience offered there and they still haven't reached that level of gameplay yet. Dubbed Nightfire, this game was developed by Eurocom, the same group responsible for the Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets series out now, also from Electronic Arts.įor quite some time the game to aspire to in the Bond Series has been Goldeneye for the Nintendo 64 developed by Rare. 007 is back in this latest instalment of the Bond series by Electronic Arts.
