What's It About?
With JAMES BOND 007: EVERYTHING OR NOTHING, EA Games gives players an up-close and personal look at the fast-action lifestyle of secret agent James Bond. The game is set up like a Bond movie, where you perform a variety of challenging tasks before moving on to the next scene.
To play out the challenge of thinking and acting like Bond, players can engage in hand-to-hand fighting, using objects from game environments as weapons, as well as accessing guns and gadgets from the Q-lab. The use of firearms, which is just about impossible to resist considering the opposition is firing at Bond with an arsenal of ammunition, is the way to go in this game.
Is It Any Good?
Game features include a challenging single-player mode, two-player co-op missions, and four-player multiplayer arena modes, all set in third-person views and featuring multiple playable characters. With multiple ways to complete missions, the game can provide advanced players with hours of enjoyment.
The game will certainly provide the Bond fan with plenty of excitement. However, the amount of violence is a bit over the top. The game is rated Teen, and is not intended for younger audiences. You could play the game without using firearms, but they are brought to your attention on every screen, making them a very attractive option for players.
