It's really not a bad game. It's just not extraordinary.

User Rating: 8.2 | 007: NightFire PC
I picked up this game in an EA Movie Collection. "Hey, a 1st person shooter for James Bond! That sounds neat." I always thought FPSes were better on PC anyways. And I had a good time. It was nice to sit down over the weekend and pretend that I was literally in the shoes of 007. Gameplay - It controls like any other FPS. You can use a number of gadgets to find little secrets. And I thought the level design was pretty interesting even if it was used more than once. Graphics: Graphics weren't gorgeous, but I've seen many worse games, and this one was definitely passable. I never experienced any slowdown. The cutscenes were pretty good too. Sound: It used some great 007 music in the background, and I thought the weapons sounded pretty accurate. The voice acting was done well I'd say with an actor doing a great Pierce Brosnan voice. Value: It seems that this is what Gamespot liked the least about this one. I'll admit, the game was kind of short, and the missions weren't as varied as the console version, but it was still a highly satisfying 007 experience. Aside from different difficulty settings, (I'm not big on online multiplayer) there may not be a whole lot that brings you back to this game. I enjoyed it. I didn't go into it expecting the most awesome James Bond experience and I walked away pretty satisfied. I don't think it deserves all the heat it seems to get. It was a nice diversion that I don't mind replaying every now and then.
