If you aren't shaken, but stirred by competitive role-playing action in a console game, The World Is Not Enough may be right up your mission alley.

PSX Nation
A worthy game for first person shooter fans and joins Alien Resurrection in that second tier of FPS's worth considering.

Game Revolution
It's got action, adventure and excitement, though the lack of AI is a letdown.

Even though TWINE is no "GoldenEye," it's still a fun and well-made game in its own right. It's sort of the way I feel about Pierce Brosnan...he'll never replace Sean Connery in my heart, but he still plays a pretty good Bond.

It's not remotely as good as the Nintendo 64 version, but it's certainly a major improvement over last year's shank-fest. (And it's not even remotely close to "Goldeneye.")

The artificial intelligence of TWINE's enemies is both shaken and stirred.

It's fun for a while, but the problems with the game become a hassle and the game's lack of length and diversity cause it to lose a lot of the entertainment value it should have.

CNET Gamecenter
Crippled by graphical glitches, poor control, and incompetent AI, TWINE feels more like a wannabe "GoldenEye" than something that can stand on its own merits. It's not that it's a horribly bad game; it's just not a very good game.

Gaming Age
The technology is behind the curve, the control is too sensitive and cumbersome, but the variation in gameplay saves the title from the ever-increasing abyss of forgetful games based on movies.

Daily Radar
Prolonged exposure to this latest Bond adventure reveals that TWINE is, despite the gorgeous visuals and top-notch presentation, at heart a relatively shallow experience -- decent, but not quite good enough.

Hot Games
If the game was a bit longer, or if even each mission took longer to complete than the 5-10 minutes generally required, maybe we could give the game a higher score - shoddy visuals and all.

I really liked this game. It has lots of graphics and gadgets. Although I have not seen the movie I think it is well done with the clips from it. But I agree with some people about the graphics, they could be much better. But I do wish you could have more weapons in the levels.

Nick B. gave it a 9:
This game is great! There are plenty of weapons and gadgets. And there are codes for everyone out there. You have to complete the game in different difficulties which will allow you to get different codes. See I did my research. So please, know the facts before you keep on bitchin about the codes!

Jonathan F. (The revised vote) gave it a 9:
Here's a much more detailed comment. This could be Goldeneye for the PlayStation. Along with Quake II of course. The graphics are fine! The guns are amazing. The women, though you hardly get to see them, are much nicer looking than the later turtles in Agent Under Fire. This is definitely better than the later Agent Under Fire and DEFINITELY MUCH better than Tomorrow Never Dies. It may not be Goldeneye, but as a James Bond game it's the closest EA has ever got to recreating it.

David F. gave it a 9:
It was great i loved the way the enemy ran away, but no codes.

Nick B. gave it an 8:
This game was great!!!! I don't know why everyone says the grapics suck.The only thing I don't like about this game is that the voiceovers suck....

Sean M. gave it a 0:
Boring, BORING, BORING!!!!!!! This game has terrible graphics. Not a lot of guns and the levels are too darn short! No multiplayer mode! The game is not very challanging.The N64 version is much much better. I Played the game for about 3 days and its already boring!!!!!!

Weasel N. gave it a 9:
One of the best games I have seen, but it's extremely difficult and the cheats are nest to impossible to access.
