Connery's second movie, made into a game?

User Rating: 6.5 | From Russia With Love PS2

Yes this game is called From Russia With Love, but it has taken an idea from another film Thunderball, the idea taken from Thunderball is the jetpack, however in the film Thunderball there is large quantity of smoke while the jetpack is in motion, however there is an absence in the game. Instead they seem to replace that with nitrous oxide (with smoke your vision would be impaired?)

The fighting (shooting and fist) are very good, the cross hairs allow for high-point accuracy.

The evil organisation known as Specter in the films has now been changed to Octopus (possibly from **** the characters from the original film have a very good likeness from film to game.

Many of the gadgets (yes, gadgets sounds strange for a bond film, or not?) seem not to match in with the older bond films.

The lighting from the film sets in perfectly with the game to create a 1960's film.

Not a very good film to game conversion, for a good film to movie conversion try 'The Godfather'
