What a fucking depressing lack of potential. id making a Borderlands type game should've been a slam dunk. Instead, you have weighty gunplay that feels mediocre on controller and horrible on MnK, car combat that is fun but half baked in terms of how it's implemented, a horrible story that ends so abruptly like a wet fart, and characters who are truly lifeless.
Stand aside Bioshock, there’s a new favorite game of all time in town. Thanks for making me terrifyingly scream expletives in new and exciting ways, Remedy. Spiral out.
Look, I am a huge Bond fan (it's my favorite IP) so I have a strong bias here. It also doesn't help I have strong nostalgia for this game. Regardless, it's a damn good game for 2002. The shooting hasn't aged well, and it also had to follow up 2001's Halo: CE that revolutionized shooters (particularly the FPS) for consoles, but this game still holds up.
Zany plot with cheesy one liners, gadgets galore, one of the best levels in gaming (The Exchange) that allows you to tackle it however you want, some fun car chases, and a damn good scan of Brosnan makes this a must play for any Bond fan.
My biggest gripes are the frenetic pacing towards the end and the lack of checkpoints in the underwater mission. Seriously, just one checkpoint before the submarine fight would've done wonders. If you are playing this through an emulator, use those save states. Unfortunately, I did not have that luxury on my PS2 so just look up a walkthrough on how to cheese it so you don't waste an hour of your time like I did. Issues aside, I love this game.
