007: The World Is Not Enough

Last year Tomorrow never dies was a total hit & miss because there was no stealh on the game and the missions sucked pretty much since 90% it is just plain shooting.

Now EA Games has made my day, although it would be better on PC or 128 bit console this game put you in the shoes of Bond. There are a lot a varieties, sneaking in a mansion, taking advantage on Bond's style to bypass metal detectors.

Now just because it has 1st person perspective this DOES NOT make the game a true FPS. Why? Bond is a secret agent, in most movies he never just kick a door and blast everything, he always use stealth as much as he can. However when the alarm is ringing now he has no choice but blast everything he can and escape, if he can of course.

For shooter fans, they are free to shoot everything if they want since it is also a great challenge as long as they respect their mission parameters thou. I prefer stealth though.

For multiplayer fans, they will be disapointed since it is not supported. Personnally, I do not miss the multiplayer(unless there would be cooperative mode) of Goldeneye since deathmatch is just used to attract non-bond fans who enjoys to play deathmatch games like Quake III. I feel stupid playing as Bond and trying to kill each other in a small location. The N64 version has multiplayer support so there should be no complaint for N64 owners.

And on console deathmatches are very limited compared to PC since you have many limitations. If the game would be on PC then it would be more appropriate since you could have a map editor etc...

I can't wait for the next Bond game on Playstation 2(since TWINE has been cancelled on PS2)!

It's great to know that someone made a game concerned with gameplay and story (although there are a few plot holes) other than making a buggered up game filled with glitches (ie: Goldeneye). This game goes into detail with what was left out of the movie and puts you in a place to think like a spy instead of a psychotic killer. The missions are often difficult and, finally, includes stealth into the immortal 3D SHOOTER platform. The game requires you to think as opposed to Goldeneye and Perfect Dark. The true downside are the cartoon-like graphics and it's "loading screen". Other than that, this game sets the new standard for it's genre. 8/10

not as good as tomorrow never dies, but this game is ok. it reflects the game goldeneye for N64, and it seems like a copy off of the nintendo 64 graphics. however, this game is a great game with some of the best graphics on playstation. i give this game an 8/10

The World Is Not Enough is one of the most exciting video games! The Characters, the action, the shooting, and the sure thrill of excitement makes this game a fun non-stop playing time! Below is a brief look how I think the game is!

Game Play: The game play is very good. There is really basic controls here and is easy to perform. Novice gamers should have a good time here!

Graphics: The graphics are wonderful especially for the Nintendo 64 System! The backgrounds are really beautiful!

Difficulty: The game is easy but as it goes on you find out that it will become more difficult!

Music: The music is great! Just fantastic catchy tunes through out the game! In My opinion its some of the best music ever in a video game!

Sound: The sound is great. Nuff said!

Overall: I have always loved The World Is Not Enough! If you like shooting games then I strongly recommend you play this game!

Sometimes, in a tricky situation, I ask myself "What would Bond do?" Apart from the fact it has resulted in me getting slapped by lots of women, and a lot of broken bones, it been quite succesful. Anyway, on with the review.

After the downright AWFUL "Tomorrow Never Dies" game for the PSX, I wasn't particularly looking forward to the next installment. But I can safely say it beats TND in almost every way! This game returns to the first-person format of Goldeneye, after TND failed miserabely with a third-person view, and it works perfectly. It actually makes you feel like you're in the shoes of the great man himself. There's also plenty of guns, gadgets and beautiful women to play with, as well as lots of cutscenes from the movie, which blend in really well. The graphics are some of the best I have seen on any Playstation game as well. But now I must be the villian and point out the games bad aspects. The main problem is that it tries too hard to be a game that it's not. A classic example of this is the fifth level "Night Watch" where you must slip around Electra King's mansion in the small hours bugging telephones and tracing evidence. There's no real problem with that, except that the game tells you to be sneaky and use stealth on your enemies (which you can't kill) but this is a first person-shooter, not Metal Gear Solid!!!!!!! You can't BE sneaky, the game doesn't allow for it. It a shoot-em-up, plain and simple. Don't listen when the game tells you to be sneaky, just run out with your guns blazing and you'll still get through. A few other little gripes I have is that it's very awkward changing weapons, which should be quick and easy in this type of game. You can't re-enact that classic boat chase on the Thames (a real disappointment) and there's still no multiplayer, which could have worked well. Plus it could still be slightly longer. But despite these faults, the good points outweigh them. It's no Goldeneye, but an enjoyable enough shooter which is definetly worth buying even if your not a big follower of the guy who never has a problem with the women (so why aren't I as good as him.........)

+ Well Presented + Excellent graphics + A good range of weapons and gadgets to play with + It's Bond!

• Still not long enough - Tries too hard to be something it's not - No multiplayer!

Overall: 7 out of 10 (This was a review of the Playstation version)
