Nice job. Almost makes me wish I hadn't sent it to you, but then I remember how much I hate games based on storys I already know. How about a new Connery Bond adventure EA?

Also, why'd they do this one? Seems Goldfinger would be the natural. I wonder if the IP owners wanted waaay too much money to license that story. Or maybe the ESRB would balk at Pussy Galore? (I musht be dreaming.)

Bond "Do you expect me to talk?"
Goldfinger "No Mr. Bond, I expect you to die!"
Bond "Well, I'll jusht hit continue old man."
Goldfinger (looking down at his shoes) "Yeah, I know. Sigh"

lol that's good...I would have liked any # of other classics too, I'm betting on the too expensive on the lic & the Pusshy Galore issue...they're prolly just testing with this one to see how badly they get ripped on before they drop the big money for thunderball, I still haven't rented the movie yet :oops:

Ugh. Thanks for reminding me. Thunderball is the only Bond film I never saw! Russia With Love is an interesting choice though. Great movie, but also probably the slowest paced and intricately plotted. Did they include the camera behind the mirror love scene?

there was the love scene between him & Katarina (the lady who was helping him steal the lecktor) when they first meet, but I don't remember any hidden cameras , I don't exactly remember the movie either. :oops:

In the movie when he's wooing the Russian, neither know they're being filmed. At the end of the movie they cuddle and watch it together. I imagine that sort of thing was a novelty back in the 60's. Weird wild stuff! It happens about 50% into the movie.

I take it there's the big gypsy fight at least?
