Everything or Nothing really captures what was so cool about the the James Bond movies and brings it into a game. It turns out to be the best James Bond game ever. The gameplsy is superb, which blends a fine mixture of driving and shooting and just plain action into one, whole package. It doesthis by giving James a number of actions, such as the ability to take cover, quickly turn, pop off a few shots then return into hiding. The driving sequences are all great. James as many various cars, inccluding a motorcycle. Every now and then he has to pilot something else liek a helicopter or RC car equiped with lasers. There are only a few very small flaws to the gameplay system. Such as the game's difficulty is offset on each setting due to the fact that James has dead-eye accuracy, requiring you to only lock-on and fire. Enemies go down after a few shots of anything. And a manual aiming system would have been nice. Another minor issue is that even though the hand to hand combat is well done, combining light with heavy punches and throws, it is rarely ever used, and there are only a small handfull of situations where you can only use hand to hand, and James will smack the enemy with the gun he is using if he is close enough to strike his opponent. The last thing is that the armor you can pick up only heals you, not gives you added protection, it would have been better if there was a health and an armor meter. Aside from that the gameplay is pheonominal. The graphics on the other hand are amazing. James looks the best ever and all of the new characters look like they are right out of a Bond movie. If that weren't enough, Madona even did a new song for the intro and all of the familiar characters are all voiced by the real actors or actresses who played them, as well as the new people sound great as well. Overall I realy enjoyed James Bond Everything or Nothing.
