Well I picked this baby up for a smooth thirty five quid today, second hand for my Xbox. Man I popped this disk in and havent looked back.

The story is very cool, and at points you feel its up to movie standards, the camera angles, the witty remarks, james raising his eyebrow, lovely ladies, shiny BMW's its all in this game.

At certain points you get to go in the car in a mini-esque Grand Theft Auto stylee chases, the FPS stays solid as you whizz through crowded streets with pedestrians jumping for there life, me pelting the enemy with bullets, and cars tailing me, and even huge helicopters rocketing my ass.

The guns are the standard Bond array and fail to deliver anything really that new, the dart gun is a nice touch, but none of the guns give a real kick like I'd have hoped.

The levels, indoor ones, are glory filled graphic paradise, alot of works has been put into capturing the Bond theme and its lavish world wide landscapes and building styles.

The Ai is sweet, the enemies react as any man would, faced with the man of adventure standing at them with a pistol to there head. However at times it seems less on standard and more on 'OMGOMOGMOG THE ENEMY IS ROUND 3 CORNERS FROM HERE, HELL I CANT SEE HIM BUT ILL REACT AND PRESS THE MOFO ALARM', which as you can imagine gets tiresome and extremely irritating :)

All in all this game is one hot baby, the controls are nice after 20minutes play, ala Halo, and the levels flow nicely with the story with Bond-esque witty phrases sparecely populated at key points...its small Ai faults and lack of power packed guns is easily made up for by its chase scenes, gorgeous levels and shiny BMWs.

This was a mini review I did that took me 5minutes on the spur of the moment to show INtense what I can do in a small amount of time :) (no spell or grammar check made)

Yeah it was a great game (I own it on Sony 2) but the only thing i thought it was lacking was a bigger amount of levels. But apart from that the makers did a good job :)

I played AUF PS2 at my friend's house and I was quite dissapointed (as I have been with all EA Bond games). I have TWINE on my old N64 and I noticed that the majority of the weapon models in AUF are recycled from TWINE :S.
