New James Bond Game Announced

A new Bond game is hitting stores this fall: 007 Legends.

The game is being developed by British video game company Eurocom, which developed the Wii remake of GoldenEye 007 and its subsequent port on the Xbox 360 and PS3. Eurocom also developed Nightfire, one of my favorite James Bond games. But this is no ordinary 007 game; this is easily the most ambitious. According to the press release, 007 Legends will feature "an original, overarching storyline tying together six classic Bond movies, concluding with this year's highly-anticipated 23rd installment - Skyfall - to offer the most diverse Bond gaming experience yet."

In addition to the single-player campaign, which somehow ties together six different Bond movies, Legends will include Mi6 Ops Missions, first introduced in GoldenEye 007: Reloaded, plus online and four-player split-screen multiplayer. And for the first time, players "will be able to participate as one of Bond's cohorts or villainous foes, reliving the missions through their eyes, as well as 007's."

  1. This game could be great! I am not so big on the first-person shooters (or any shooting at all that is, but I like the idea of this game. Of course what I REALLY want is for Skyfall to come out....
