James Bond 007: Nightfire for Playstation 2Amazon.com Review
James Bond 007: NightFire is a worthy sequel to 2001’s outstanding Agent Under Fire. The game retains the by and large look of its predecessor–including some familiar recurring characters and gadgets–but is designed to feel more like an actual Bond movie than a video game. After the familiar “gun barrel” opening shot, you’re introduced to the game via a pre-credits action sequence owing to the streets of Paris that leads into an original theme song, complete with bizarre imagery.

The pacing of the game is natural, with each objective chief smoothly to the next. You even get to holster your PPK, don a tuxedo, and infiltrate a cocktail party at your adversary’s mansion, making small talk with his henchmen, flirting with female party guests, and eavesdropping on secret conversations. Of course, within minutes you’ll be shooting your way out of the place and making a daring escape in right 007 fashion, including Bond’s trademark one-liners. The storyline combines espionage, action, and allusion in just the right proportions to evoke a real Bond movie atmosphere.

The game’s by and large playability is improved by some nice attention to detail, not the least of which is the addition of smarter and less predictable villains (they can hear you coming, they converse with each other, and they’re better at utilizing cover and sneaking up behind you). You also have more tactical options (there are many ways to reach each objective, so the game is very replayable) as well as a better arsenal of gadgets and weapons. And best of all, the multiplayer mode incorporates classic characters from many Bond movies. More than any other 007 game to date, NightFire was designed with the die-hard Bond fan visibly in mind. –Maile Bohlmann
