Step in the right direction? I think not.

Well, I'll keep it short and sweet since i can only post one review, and my first 2000 character review was deleted to my great distress. My opinions about Nightfire are as follows: 1. The missions are monotonous and drab. They last too long and incorporate frustrating and awkward objectives. I could drag on forever about how boring these missions are, but I already tried that and it made my review too long. My solution is that in the next Bond game, there should be many missions that are much shorter than these. That was the main appealing factor for me about Agent Under Fire. 2. Multi-player was weakened with the loss of the grapple's ability to grapple anywhere, but was greatly strengthened with the addition of A.I. opponents. This simple addition is supporting the success of the game. 3. The Health ring is vague and useless. The fact that once you've lost health you can never gain it back is quite annoying as missions tend to last forever. 4. The mini-vehicles are awsome. They are also the one of the best thing's added to this game. 5. Control in vehicles like the Vanquish and the C.U.V. are sticky and unusual. 6. Control of mounted weapons on mobile vehicles, like in the mission Alpine Escape are slow and awkward. These controls suffered a great loss in the ability to pull a 180 degree turn in the press of a button. Realizing that I have more complaints than compliments led me to give it a mere 2.5, which is sad for a Bond game. Come on guys you can do better than this.

NOT HALO BUT NOT BAD

Its not quite a winner like halo, but is fun to play in the apartment with some of your good friends for the reason you can put bots in the game that can actually be challanging. single player is fun, besides that dumb vechile missions.
