    EA shouldn't have cancelled the PS2 and PC version of The World Is Not Enough to make Agent Under Fire. An improved version of The World Is Not Enough would have been much better compared to what we got with Agent Under Fire.

    While playing as the worlds favourite spy is always fun and this game does have some moments overall it is just not a very enjoyable experience. The shooting mechanics just do not feel very satisfying, I realize that this is an older game but the shooting in GoldenEye and The World Is Not Enough which are both older games was much better. I won't spoil the story but it is silly and not very interesting. Another issue I had was the game is just way to easy. The levels are short and the A.I. does not offer much of a challenge. I would say that out of all the Pierce Brosnan (Who is not even in this game! He is replaced by another actor who looks nothing like him) era James Bond games this is the worst game of the bunch.

    If you want a good James Bond game on the PS2 or Xbox play Nightfire or Everything or Nothing.    … Expand

    007 Agent Under Fire, by EA Games, tries to get close. Levels have great graphics and details, and there are different modes including driving the BMW Z8 in the streets, but the game itself is not very challenging. Multiplayer is fun, after you get the hang out of it, but the only nice thing of this game is that its a Bond game.

    [Games Radar Rating = Hit] Although it isn't as revolutionary as GoldenEye once was, the deft changes of pace mean it's undoubtedly the most Bond-like game ever. It might not leave you shaken, but it's certainly stirring.

    It’s just a shame that the game is too easy, a little more time perfecting the enemy AI and level design would have seen this scored much highly, but in the end this is a good game for action fans and those wanting their next Bond fix.

    Slick, sexy and jam-packed with action — but this adventure is short with limited playability over time, except perhaps for its multiplayer modes.
