007: Nightfire

I couldn't wait to rent this game, even though it disapointed me a little bit. The gameplay relates a lot to Agent Under Fire, which really ticked me off. Even the Multiplayer is identical. However, it wasn't that close to a faliure. The graphics were a hell of a lot better and I loved how they made Bond look exactly like Brosnan, except for a s****y lie about having Brosnan voice this one. The women were pretty good, except that they just couldn't resist to kill the hottest one. Damn. Anyway, the levels were very good and the car chases are aplenty, and that made me feel ecstatic. Overall, it is better than Agent Under Fire and I hate it when they said that the multiplayer levels in Auf were better than TWINE, they sucked. It rates third in my books. Oh, and I liked how it had its own theme song at the beginning. I just hope when Die Another Day becomes a game it will be as good as GoldenEye, but so far, nothing has beat that game. 7/10

Before I say anything, if you're looking to play the free PC version, do yourself a favour and Google ''007 - Nightfire (Windows 10 Compatible) archive dot org''. The install file is uploaded by user ''Electronic Arts / A White Bob Installer''. It has no bugs or crashes to desktop unlike the other modified copy with updated multiplayer support patched to v5.91 that's made widely available on ''nightfirepc'' website.

Here's my review, so I had the chance to complete both version of this game on the Console PS2 via PCSX2 Emulator for PC followed by the PC version. It's an engaging Action/Adventure FPS game with all the usual Bond gadgets made ready for the player to use in different situations. I highly recommend that you play the console version first because it has the ''Car Driving Missions'' that was removed in the PC version for reasons unknown. Unsure why the Devs made this terrible decision? The PC port is a completely new experience, feels like another game imo. The graphics, the gameplay mechanics, cinematography etc. Alot of stuff in the PC version feels rushed or remove. I rate both versions an 8 out of 10.

This game is absolutely fantastic....

You know that this is a game for every Bond fan to enjoy and the structure of the game, stops it from being just another "shoot 'em up".

The game is the closest I have seen to a Bond film with car chases, snow mobile fights, gorgeous women and typical Bond innuendo.

Playabilty is 9/10 and the graphics are 10/10. Obviously John Cleese and Pierce Brosnan didn't do the voices of the characters however, the similarities to the actors is uncanny.

The only let down for this game is that the levels have a tendency to repeat themselves.

Bond fans will love this game. Gameheads will like this game.

It's a winner all the way!

This game is one of the all time most classic Playstation 2 games. There's a reason this 007 game, out of the vast number produced over time, is the most widely recognized and is sometimes enough of a reason to buy the PS2 console to begin with.

Most every single multiplayer first person shooter games of the modern age take lessons from the game play you experience in the 1-2 (1-4 with multi-tap) arena style matches that debuted in 007: Nightfire. Multiplayer gaming before this was akin to the bonus disc in some DVD's: a feature that sounds awesome enough to raise the market price, but in reality does not have the quality and substance to draw you in like the main feature does. Some of my earliest memories of playing a video game with other people are from 007: Nightfire, and remind me very much of the heated modern day Call of Duty multiplayer game play that has resulted in globally broken walls, broken friendships, and broken controllers (in the best possible way!).

If you're in the mood for some retro gaming, 007: Nightfire is an absolute must have!

This game has everything, and is well worth buying, there are so many missions, all different, from shooting enemies to driving in a cool Aston Martin, the first mission well represents this, you have to protect a French intelligence agent in a helicopter with a sniper rifle, taking out the enemies as they come, and later you are driving a car around the city. Then the other missions later on are more "spy" missions where you are snaking around. The multi-player option is great too, on this option you can play as characters from the game and basically choose your enemies and have a shoot out, or play a special option e.g. industrial espionage where you have to collect disks for your team. Also by winning a lot of points on the one player game, you have the chance to win celebrity characters for the multi player mode, these including the legendary Goldfinger, Electra King and Renard. Or alternatively you can just find the cheat codes. This game is brilliant and definitely worth buying.
