Summary

For goldeneye fans...it's not enough...

The Good

Story: After the leader of a oil line (Robert King) is murdered at MI6 Bond is sent to look after his daughter, Electra, but things seem strange when Electra's previous assilant, Renard a man who has lost all feeling to his body, arrives on the scene. Teamed up with Christmas Jones (I thought christmas came only once every year) Bond must stop Renard from destorying Islam with the plutonium core of a Russian Sub.

Menu: A nice Motorolla phone layout, very slick.

Difficulty: At easy you are god, hard...pray.

Graphics: Very good, and impressive too, from realistic shine on the flooring, detailed cityscapes, characters, bullet holes and explosions. All done in wonderful detail. The characters all resemble their life counterparts, even moneypenny looks good. The weapons are done with the usal flair, fairly basic but still look good, as well as a nice night vision and lenz flare off lights. the bad guys are well drawn but lack the detail that the main characters hold. The levels are true to the movie, with that weird torture chair making a camo.All is done in the usal Bond style.

Sound: Fairly good, music is a bit bland, all voice though with some nice acting from John Clease. Good weapons sounds and more.

Gameplay: The game is mostly scripted, although some weapons can be found by taking the left route instead of the right. The missions are true to the game, but the scriptedness takes away the Bond flair that made goldeneye so famous. The mission does have it's good side at times, even though some are hard. A bot or human multiplayer is included with the ability to earn new levels and playable characters (A woman clad in only a towel is also in).

The Bad

The A.I was rather poor, point and shoot. That was it. the gameplay was boring after a while and you got sick of repeating the same mission over and over again. Also easy was too easy. And hard was bloody impossible

The Bottom Line

For the fans, hire it before you buy it. Good in some places (Like blowing away Dame Judy Dench) and bad in others (Like we can hold our breath for THAT long under the water) Also the loading times are stupid and you need a memory card to play.
