Latest level announcements are Licence to Kill and Die Another Day.

 

Die Another Day is my second least favourite Bond film (after OHMSS).

Yeah Die Another Day is the worst.

 

Hmm... I guess maybe it was because it's the only Brosnan film there hasn't been a game of, but such a shame it wasn't the streets/helicopter chase and skyscraper etc... from Tomorrow Never Dies.

Die Another Day? Out of all the Bond films they pick that one? If they were going to do a Brosnan film they should of done The World is Not Enough.

 

As many have mentioned, its the only Brosnan Bond not made into a game. Still a pretty crap choice though, The World is Not Enough should have been used with the submarine level used instead.

They should have used Tomorrow Never Dies and base the mission around storming the Stealth ship. Or as Retro_Link suggested base it around the skyscraper/motorbike/helicopter scenes.

 

I understand why they don't use Goldeneye considering the recent game but I doubt many people remember World is Not Enough and Tomorrow Never Dies. It just doesn't make sense to choose Die another Day when they have World is not enough and Tomorrow Never Dies to choose from. There wasn't a game based on Casino Royale. (Unless you count the missions in Quantam of Solace) Is Craig's level going to be a poker simulator? Or will that be DLC?

 

That last bit was a joke. I know that the 6th mission will be based on Skyfall.

Their hands are probably tied by all the old Bond games over the years, well from Goldeneye onwards at least. Die Another Day is the only film I've ever walked out of in the cinema.

The only Bond games I loved were Goldeneye, From Russia With Love and Everything or Nothing. The others weren't really that memorable to me. I may not have played some of them though so I can't really say I dislike all of them. The trailers shown have kind of killed it a bit for me. It sounded interesting but...it kind of looks...not right...

Ooooooh you might not want to get this with the Wii U.

It’s a bad game when it’s working, but there are plenty of moments that make you wonder how it even got cleared for release. Enemy AI frequently freaks out, causing soldiers to endlessly sprint against walls (often firing their guns at the ground). At one point, the framerate dropped to unplayable levels, except it wasn’t during a firefight – I was just walking around. The visuals are cheap, with doorknobs drawn onto textures like this was a Nintendo 64 game. As I entered one room, enemies materialized out of thin air and dropped to the ground in front of me. These troubles carry over to its simple multiplayer mode, which features lag, terrible character animations, and an upgrade system that can’t even clear the “poor man’s Call of Duty” bar.

Last year Eurocom delivered GoldenEye: Reloaded, an HD remake which was arguably the best James Bond game since well, the original GoldenEye 64. Unfortunately the developer hasn't been able to maintain that trajectory with 007 Legends; an abhorrent 'tribute' to the history of the British super spy that doesn't just take liberties - it takes the piss. At a time when early reports suggest the celluloid Bond is reaching a new high with Skyfall, it's a shame that his video game counterpart has reached his digital downfall. If you're really dying for a Call of Duty-style shooter experience, then sit tight as Black Ops II has likely got more money than God behind it and it's only a month away.
