    The camera, for instance, is more often than not pointing in entirely the wrong direction. It points in the direction that you were last moving but rotates very slowly.

    Fun in the short-term and has ambition, but there's not enough innovation to get excited about, or warrant re-playing what is a lengthy franchise title.

    In the end the game gets a slightly better than average review score on gaming merits, but if you love high octane cinema, prefer ‘the getaway’ to ‘vice city’, or just plain want to be a British secret service agent and pull Shannon Elizabeth, then this is for you.

    It's perhaps because the title benefits from such a high production spend … that the average design and execution becomes more pronounced. [Mar 2004, p.101]

    The move to third-person is bold and different, but in order for it to succeed an effective auto-targeting system is essential; unfortunately, the lock-on provided is patchy at best - and just as likely to target the guy at the back over the guy who is inches away from ramming an Uzi up your rectum. Compounding the problem is the relative uselessness of shooting when not using the lock-on.

    With just as many levels where you'll pray for it to be over than where you're actually having fun, the game turns out to be a mixture of styles that don't meld together as solidly as they should, as well as having several frustrating joypad-throwing moments and often demanding extraordinary feats of memory from the player. [Mar 2004, p.114]

    Everything or Nothing is one of those mixed bag games. There's a lot to love about it & a lot to hate also. The game plays differently toEverything or Nothing is one of those mixed bag games. There's a lot to love about it & a lot to hate also. The game plays differently to previous 007 games and EA have chosen to go with a 3rd person perspective instead. this is where the game fails, I'm a big fan of 3rd person shooters and prefer it over 1st person a lot of the time. This is not one of those times.

    The shooting sections are where my biggest issues are, the shooting is all done by locking on with left trigger, no manual targeting here, just lock on & shoot. this gets old really quick and you find yourself just running & gunningto the end. This negates any need for any of the gadgets and that just feels wasted to me.

    The driving sections however are still as awesome as before. full of action & set pieces to rival the films perfectly. albeit a bit clunky to ride, the motorbike sections are some of the best bits in the game and need to be experienced.

    another big issue is the length of the game, there are 27 missions in all and it feels a bit too long. they're varied enough to keep you playing, but I struggled with some of the shooting levels because they're just so boring.

    This isn't a bad game overall, and if you can find it cheap enough it's worth a purchase, It's just that there are better Bond games out there. Back in 2003 I remember this game being amazing, but sadly it's not aged well in places and I feel my nostalgia goggles might have fallen off for this one.    … Full Review »
