  • Summary: Think like Bond, act like Bond, and experience an entirely new Bond adventure. James Bond, the world's greatest secret agent, returns in Everything or Nothing with new guns and gadgets, combat skills, and clever tricks--and it's up to you to put them to good use. Travel through four exciting continents including the Valley of the Kings in Egypt and the French Quarter in New Orleans. The game also features two-player co-op missions and four-player multiplayer arena modes. Expand

  1. You can also race through a shitstorm of artillery fire in a Porsche Cayenne Turbo (complete with “Q-cloak” invisibility feature) or missile-firing Triumph Daytona 600.

    You can also race through a shitstorm of artillery fire in a Porsche Cayenne Turbo (complete with “Q-cloak” invisibility feature) or missile-firing Triumph Daytona 600.
  3. A solid story, engaging gameplay and sound technical merits makes Everything or Nothing the best Bond title that’s been released in years.
  4. 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.

    I Love this game! It's the best James Bond game ever (Yes, even better than Goldeneye) Its also one of my favourite games and it has an excellent campaign and co-op mode! Expand

    This game is frustratingly addictive. The plus side is that the overall presentation is extremely well done. I love the way they made it feel more like an interactive movie than just another shooter. The down side is the F**king targeting, which takes too long to get use to. But no matter how pissed i got at the controls, i couldn't stop playing. Expand

    Shut up johnny I agree with K and I don't think the 3rd person works. It's a decent 3rd person game, but its not a Bond game. And the aiming is crap. Expand

    I have to admit, I have only played a few levels of this game. However, I think it is another classic example of a game being a victim of it's own hype. To compare this gane to Goldeneye is a little unfair. You have to remember that despite the limitations of the N64, the quality of the gameplay and level design are phenomenal. I would argue that the game is still holding its own today. EA is an enormous company and probably the biggest contender in the gamesmarket. Naturally, their games look the business but if you remove your rose tinted spectacles, you will see the flaws. EA has not learnt from its mistakes and they continue to make them. The problem is, players are so mesmarised by the graphics and visual beauty of the game, that they are very forgiving. I would argue that they should not be. The driving levels I have seen are appalling. The rendering of the vehicles is not up to much. The way that the enemy relentlessly attacks and careers into your vehicle borders on the insane. Furthermore, the helicopter level was shocking. Moving a polished helicopter in a seriously restricted environment soon wears thin. The battle with Jaws on the train was mudane in the extreme. The character performing the same action over and over again was easily dealt with a few blows in the chest whereupon he was sent flying helplessly into an electric charge. Nice effects but that is about all. As I have said, I have not played the entire game but my instinct tells me that this is not one to play again. There is no comparison to, say, Splinter Cell so i think that the high scores awarded by some of the reviewers are grossly unfounded. I think that it is wrong that giants like EA dominate the market. I find it a little sinister to see that every issue of an EA game sports a 9/10 sticker on PS2 (what's going on here?). The game buying public should be more discerning, should they not? There are far superior games in production (Splinter Cell 2, Driver 3, Half-Life 2 to name but a few) and I think we should all be more selective. My advice, and you can take it or leave it, is to leave Everything behind and lose Nothing. You might think this is harsh but think about the money you are spending before throwing it at games giants like EA. Expand
