Ойын-сауық

Not a Bond game fondly remembered by the masses but should it be given a second chance?

    I recognize the music during 11:15 ! It was made by Rom Di Prisco, who composed some songs for the early Need for Speed games made by EA. That song was cut from the PC version of Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed (or Need for Speed Porsche 2000). Nice to see it be reused in something else at least, but why of all things a Bond game? It doesn't really fit well, at all.

    What year did this game come out? A lot of the levels and icons seem to be "inspired" by the driving sections in Die Hard Trilogy on the PS1. But, I rented this game from Blockbuster as a kid, burned it to a CD-R on my PC, then played it on the PS1 using the swap disc trick with a lump of blu-tak. :D Will you be looking into the Domark era of Bond games ever? Also the arcade game Sly Spy, which was supposed to be a 007 game, but the deal fell through at the last moment, so you have a James Bond game with James Bond villains without the James Bond license!

Secondly, I'm absolutely obsessed with that Brosnan soundalike - favourite bit is that entire MI6 cut scene where it really gives his vocal cords a time to shine. "Why take the carrrrrrrrr? Iiiiiiiit's just a hunch!". This entire video has reminded me of stuff I thought I wiped from my memory. I remember not being able to get past the third level at all. Had to get the cheats so I could skip it. I don't even think I've completed the game properly come to think of it, there's a lot of levels here I have absolutely no recollection of! Awesome video man. :)

    @@calvindyson Just a quick heads up, The World is Not Enough also got a version produced for the Gameboy Color which came out in the fall of 2001. It was a really poor game when compared to the Nintendo 64 version. Without using the included cheat passwords, it was hard game to play, especially the level set at Electra King's villa where stealth is needed. Plus it only had about eight levels or levels so it really lacked the replay value of the console versions. I honestly enjoyed the James Bond 007 game for the Gameboy and Nightfire for Gameboy Advance more than this one. As for the Nintendo 64 version of The World Is Not Enough, despite it being made by EA, it did feel like a proper Goldeneye squeal, since it was a FPS game, you had a great variety of weapons and gadgets to use and it did stick pretty close2df Plus the multiplayer was alot of fun, since their was different characters to unlock and play as along with customization options to make things different for each match up. I still fondly remember as one of the last Nintendo 64 games that I purchased before getting a Gamecube.

    Wait, R says there are only seven 00 agents? That's not right. TWINE (the most recent movie released at the time) makes reference to a 009. So unless they stopped recruiting new agents after the whole Alec thing, I think that's a huge oversight. Then again, I'm nitpicking the lore in 007 Racing...

    Great review. Never played this, and honestly, probably never will. Really, the game 007 Racing really reminds me of would be Spy Hunter for the PS2. Similar concepts really, you drive a gadget laiden car and have to complete objectives by driving through levels set all over the world. However, Spy Hunter is really great, it's well designed, its objectives are designed so that you rarely have to stop, and unlike in this game, the car can also be driven on water too. I really recommend it, it basically is the great version of what 007 Racing seemed to be trying to accomplish. Also got to say, I was laughing very hard at the Sheriff JW Pepper gags in this, love your editing of him into Brosnan era scenes. I really look forward to your other PS1 reviews, as someone who has played all the PS2 and PS3 era games I am curious to see how they hold up, and also to see Eurocom's first go at Bond as well. I am curious, since you will be looking at both versions of The World Is Not Enough, have you ever considered looking at the PC version of Nightfire? Like TWINE, it was made by another developer, Gearbox, I believe on a different game engine too, and has many departures from the console version, like no vehicle or turret sections. It was made by Gearbox, who are in fact still going, currently working on Borderlands 3 which will be out next month.

    Daniel Holmes Thanks for the tip about Spy Hunter! May well have to check it out. A game revolving around Bond cars is such a good idea and yet they completely dropped the ball on this one. You definitely don’t need to play this one, you’re missing out on nothing. And yes I think I’ll have to try to find a way to play the PC Nightfire. I own a Mac rather than a PC though so I’m guessing that makes things more difficult?

    @@calvindyson Spy Hunter is something I do recommend, although sadly the 2 sequels they made for it also on the PS2 did sadly drop the ball. In fact, I remember Spy Hunter 2 having an infuriating boss fight against a massive jumbo jet plane as it tries to take off just like in 007 Racing actually. Still, first one is great, and looking at eBay, should cost less than £5. Sadly, I'm not very tech literate. According to Wikipedia, Nightfire's PC version actually did get a Mac release 1 and a half years after the PC version, apparently ported by yet another company called Aspyr. Nightfire for all intents and purposes is basically a dead game, due to the fact that it and alot of Bond games have never been rereleased, due to the licencing issues. A couple of options you have really, either buy a mac version of eBay or some other site. (Currently, Ebay has one listing for a Mac version, at £3.49 including P&P.) Buy it and see if your Mac will run it, although I imagine the newer your Mac is, the less likely it will. The other option is to try a fan download. Again, it's not like you can buy Nightfire "legitimately" from an actual game site like Steam, so while it technically is piracy, I don't think there is anything wrong with it in this situation. However, I'm struggling to find a site that provides a Mac version to download. So it might be best just to buy the Mac version, see if you can run it or not, and if you can't, maybe try to find some advice from Google or perhaps a site for Mac users about where to go from there.

Anyway, on that River Chase level, I believe she's actually saying "launch the mortars", which is what the Moonraker guards were launching at Bond during that particular boat chase. Anyway, I'm very much looking forward to your World is Not Enough review. And if you didn't know, that's a cheat code on Bond's license plate in the front cover. I think it gives you Dalton's Aston for multiplayer.

    It’s kinda funny how fun the car sections were in Agent Under Fire, Nightfire, Everything or Nothing, and even Blood Stone despite none of them centering on car combat like this one. Granted, they probably saw what worked and didn’t work here and incorporated that in later games.

    I remember renting this once and I'm pretty sure I only ever gave it one sitting and never got past that 3rd level. I think I had already played Spy Hunter (2001) at the time and thought that an older but similar game could still be fun. I really just want to echo the couple comments I saw saying that Spy Hunter is an actually good execution of the "do missions in a spy car with weapons and gadgets" concept.

    This was my gateway to the 007 universe. My cousin gave me a pirated copy of this game and my brother and I spent many hours playing it 20 years ago. About 5 years later, I procured a legitimate copy for my PS2 and spent time beating the game on 00 Agent, as well as unlocking all the cheats and other unlockables. As bad as this game is, I cut it a lot of slack, as without it, I wouldn't have watched all the films, read some of the Fleming novels, or picked up the better games that were made.

    They tried to kill me with a forklift! Gotta love the box art, where the DB5’s number plate has been changed from BMT 216A (or 214A for the Brosnan Era) to L1R1ΔOX. Because PlayStation I guess, either that or Greece. Now I thought from the title this game would be the obligatory Mario Kart knockoff that it seems every film/TV IP is required to have. Which could be fun if done right. Get all the old cars and create tracks based on all the Ken Adams sets, all you have to do is replace the turtle shells with missiles, the banana peels with oil slicks and Toad with Carter from ‘Casino Royale’ - it could work, just as long as you had a competent developer.

    This game is PS2 Spy Hunter...but shitty. Honestly, it feels like EA was prototyping car levels for a future Bond game and decided to tape them together. For what it's worth, if it was an experiment it payed off. The later EA games have really fun car levels.

    You know Calvin, imagen if this game had a remake. The idea is sound (Though limited in some aspects) and it gave the fans the chance to play with their favorite bond cars (Up to 2000). If a remake is possible, it could include more levels with the other 12, an option to toggle between weapons (Without the annoyance of being forced to use the newly collected item), the cars from the late Brosnan to the Craig era being added as unlockables, Actual racing events for namesake (With some tracks from a few bond films) and possibly online multiplayer with other players.

    Me liking terrible things is kinda a meme at this point but I unironically loved this game growing up. I remember struggling a lot in some single player missions (Yep, Ambush can gtfo) but me and my dad would play the multi-player CONSTANTLY. Also fun fact there's a cheat code you can input on the 'press start' screen where you can unlock the V8 from 'The Living Daylights'.
