Review: James Bond 007: Everything or Nothing on the Sony PlayStation 2 is just a classic example of how to make a brilliant game by EA. You play as James Bond, a member of MI5, a secret agent, who is attempting to save the world from certain doom yet again. This is a unique story, not a movie tie-in, but still follows the same formulae as the film, which all Bond fans will be thankful for too. This is a third person game, not a first person like all the other James Bond games. That means you actually see James when you play as opposed to just seeing a weapon. The game gives you stealth, shooting, driving sections all in one, and they all work well. As opposed to one section just being good, they all blend in in a variety of roughly 20 missions. The controls aren't fiddly, and the computer responds quickly to all your commands. More importantly, it feels right. Not jerky, but smooth. The locations are incredible, from a built up city, to a train, to driving accross a desert, to falling off a cliff. This game has a variety of different landscapes and the graphics are superb. The enemies react just as well as they look. Hiding and takingt the occassional sneaky shot, requiring you to use your brain and to think of the best way to overcome the problem. The extra's in the game to increase the time you'll be on it. Awarding medals for certain scores in a level. This means rewards ranging from extra characters, to new levels and production stills of the actual cast (using Pierce Brosnan) etc. This is a good rewarding game, but a bit easy for Veterans, nethertheless this is one game you must own. |
