It gave me Everything and Nothing was held back

007 Everything or Nothing is one of the most important bond games of all time. It throws everything you expect from a bond movie and puts it right into a game!

This game has a good variety of missions from its 3rd person shooting, on rail sections and racing! There never was a dull moment felt in this game as it keeps you on your toes as the plot moves along couple that with iconic flashy set pieces only a bond movie can get away with and you are in for a damn good time.

To put the hook line and sinker in this game and make it uber immersive is finally having Pierce Brosnan's face and voice along with the other bond staple actors like Judi Dench M and John Cleese R. Also I cannot forget to mention the main Villian of this story played by Willem Dafoe.

Now a PS2 game is not without its faults and this game has plenty of issues that are certainly worth mentioning. Its lock on system is pretty frustrating at time as it does not lock on to the person you want and that creates unnecessary deaths in which you may have to restart the whole mission over from the beginning. The game has a scarce checkpoint system and only certain missions have that feature. Another instance is the game difficulty. At times it feels to easy and then at other times it feels too hard. It is challenging for the most part but again sometimes you get some BS mechanic that doesn't work for you and boom start over at the beginning.

Overall, This is the AAA game EA was cooking for bond fans and its a shame this is were it kind of peaked and some other bond games came close but not as action packed as this one. Even if you aren't a bond fan you can certainly enjoy its cover based shooting and action sequences as it is able to stand on its own two legs. Over 20+ missions and plenty of replay value to be had as the game focuses on getting Gold Medals and Platinum medals to unlock its cheats and concept arts. This game served as a better send off to Pierce Brosnan 007 than Die another day did. Super fun game!
