    To my shock, Nightfire is every bit as good as "Goldeneye." [Dec 2002, p.56]

    It's not the nice visuals that make NightFire worth playing - the amazing gameplay is the main draw. [Jan 2003, p.196]

    While not the best first person shooter on the Xbox, Nightfire does an admirable job of capturing the essence of a Bond film and should please the majority of 007 fans.

    A little more challenge, depth, and length with the trimming of the lame on-rails levels would have made this one a near classic. As it is, though, it's an above-average shooter with just enough variety and charm to make the familiar trip worth your time.

    What a great game. The multiplayer to this day is tough to beat. Shooter games are one genre that I find grows less fun as it gets more realistic, and this one has just the right blend of realism and, in certain spots, a fun lack thereof.… Expand

    It is a pretty good game but only like 10 missions. I love the controlable rocket launcher thing! And I love the multiplayer! Easily worth 25 bucks just for multiplayer!!… Expand

    The graphics at some levels are good and others bad. Overall the gameplay sucks and feels childish. No xbox features here. I used the code and just went through all levels and returned it next day. Dont buy this game specially if you just finished splinter cell, 007 game makes me feel dizzy.… Expand

    Nothing compared to goldeneye. Would have rather spend 70 bucks and bought a n64 with goldeneye. It is a shame to xbox. Requires no stragety. Just run around and shoot. The driving is also bad which takes up half the game. Don't buy it. It is also super short. Could pass it in 3 hours.… Expand
