  1. I like James Bond. I hated this game. As a stealth-action shooter, Nightfire has no redeeming qualities.
  2. Outside of its swanky opening credit sequence and the appearance of the classic Bond theme throughout, it lacks any sense of style or sophistication. [Feb 2003, p.66]
  3. The problem lies in the way you coast through the levels without any real sense of progress or achievement until you realise you’re finished.
  4. Simply the most incompetently crafted shooter in living memory. [Mar 2003, p.98]

  1. How the hell is this rated higher on PS2? The controls on PC work like an ordinary FPS on PS2 the game is played for you. The game itself is quite boring, easy to get lost on and isn't satisying at all. There's no sense of pacing or action. It's not an easy game, but having said that it isn't excting or intense. Even the array of gadgets don't make the game cool. Full Review »

    It doesn't have any driving levels! In multiplayer a headshot means nothing. It takes 3 headshots to kill someone! (Also personally I think the Bond babes look way better on XBox.) Full Review »

    This game is like a cheap demo for ps2. I rated it because in PS2 there is 12 levels Pc 09 levels and in ps2 the levels have cars and choppers you can go in. the levels are longer more understandable (with a betta storyline PS2 ). The Weapon are rubbish and are verry small catagory of weapons PC doesn't have Walther PPK (Walfram PP7) and Gold. No Golden P99 only p99. No crossbow lots more that is not seen from PS2 to Pc. 1 Gadget is missing that is the shaver in pc. you cant fit and remove the silencer off of one or 2 machine guns. Graphics are rubbish. To warn people of thinking of getting this game on pc DONT get it on PS2 XBOX Nintedo Gamecube ETC Not PC had it for a month less i dont want to play it any more since i saw and played on PS2 version.
