What was the best Bond game ever?

[Surreysmith]

There have been many Bond games and I have played them all. From Golden Eye for the N64 to Everything or nothing. personally I prefer the games that are not based on flims. they just feel like there selling out and the game has to fit around the film. That is why my favourite game is 007 Nightfire. It had a good story line, the characters were new and innovative. One thing I loved about this game in particular was the rewards that you receive if you did something like 007 himself would do.
Yes other games are good but I would say this is the best 007 game yet.

Goldeneye on N64. No contest. But to be honest, they're all pretty mediocre, even Goldeneye. Seriously. I could not understand the hype at the time, and it has aged terribly.

I see what you mean they do seem to get worse as time goes on. But I have heard good things from E3 about Quantum of solace. so lets hope this is a fresh start for bond games.

Goldeneye 64, and nightfire is a very good second

 

[Crunchy English]

It did age pretty poorly, but Goldeneye was just such a big deal at the time. Coming home from school with like 8 or 9 guys and constantly playing king of the hill was fun unmatched until Perfect Dark. And even Perfect Dark just felt like an improvement/expansion/sequel to Goldeneye, developed by the same company and mostly the same

I liked Nightfire, but I played it on PC and I think that might have been a mistake. Shooters always have to be held to higher standards on PC.

I remember really digging the level in Everything or Nothing where all the action took place as you were plummeting from the top of a very high cliff. You had to dodge obstacles while shooting other enemies that were falling alongside you. It was totally ridiculous, and totally freakin' sweet. That's all I remember about the game.

So probably GoldenEye.

I know the level your on about it was really stupid. If I was minimum wage grunt and a british secret agent and half the cliff side were falling towards me, I would not stand on my little wooden balcony next to some oil drums shooting at him. No, I would run for my life.

Goldeneye, hands down. Followed closely by Everything or Nothing.

 

[super_smash_jesus]

the motor bike level in everything or nothing??!! Or even the very start where you are driving/crashing the porshe Cayenne...oooh that game had the most amazing levels of driving, and the overall gameplay with all the gadgets and guns was top notch as well. I would have to put that at the top of the Bond list for myself, followed by goldeneye, for making a game based on a movie good.

My vote goes to nightfire on the PC, simply for the online play and the great community.


EDIT: I just accidently reported myself.

Yeah... it's just that while that was going on, you also had the option of playing Quake 2 or Unreal on PC. I'll shut up now.

LOCAL MULTIPLAYER. Neither Quake 2 or Unreal ever let you have four players on one machine. Nor did they have the Siberian Special Forces.

b.o.t: Goldeneye 64 was/is the best. It's the only Bond game I've played that wasn't a massive disapointment. It also took every other console FPS of the time and shoved their chips down their collective throats.

 

[TheSteeleStrap]

Goleneye of course. I also like The World is Not Enough.

 

[sirdanrhodes]

Nightfire (all formats) and maybe golden eye.

 

[brabz]

Goldeneye on N64 is my number one, but Everything or Nothing 3rd person is a very close second.

 

[Church256]

Nightfire is the best. I play nightfire all the time even with the rather stupid multiplayer AI but atleast it has AI unlike almost every FPS today. Decent weapons, could do with a weapon setup like agent under fire but after a couple of tries the random weapon sets get a good setup. I played Goldeneye at a friends house years ago and all I can remember is getting owned and saying the AK47 looked like a pencil.

 

[Finbark]

I really like Everything or Nothing. Being as I didn't like FPSes when I had the chance to play Golden Eye. Come to think of it though I think my friend has it, and he would probably give it to me.

 

[FrankDux]

No question, Goldeneye. The best multiplayer game I've ever played until Halo. And it's still amazing to play through.

 

[Surreysmith]

I know. whatever happened to multiplayer AI. its like all the other bits of games had meeting and AI bots turned up late and forgot to switch its phone off so now they're shund by everyone else.
