Kane99 Posted November 12, 2020 Posted November 12, 2020 I read an article here at GameIndustryBiz discussing exactly this, and figured I'd make a topic about it. Why isn't it that we haven't gotten a true to form 007/Bond game? You'd think we'd be seeing more 007 themed games now days, especially with how popular the Bond franchise is. Maybe they're waiting for a new Bond to be announced. We all know Craig isn't going to be around much longer, as I think the next film is his last. So maybe when a new Bond is selected, we'll get a new game to coincide. What do you guys think?
Empire Posted November 15, 2020 Posted November 15, 2020 It's dead. it was something that most people loved back then that goes with the films but after so many series and games it's old. I mean it's something that people, even myself rather do something new with new meaning and new content. James bond is good but most f the game series is the same old content each time. Still once the new film is out in 2025 (I think) they will make games and things for it like other series.
veron12 Posted November 15, 2020 Posted November 15, 2020 I have only played one such game "007 Legends" which wasn't up to my expectations.
killamch89 Posted November 15, 2020 Posted November 15, 2020 You know, that's a very good question. I remember playing 007 on the N64 with friends on a Friday night as well as some of the other ones on the PS2 - good times! I'd be inclined to say that they aren't as appealing anymore because they're basically your generic FPS with the occasional James Bond gadget thrown in. James Bond games only focused on the shooting aspect of the bond universe when they're so many more interesting aspects to it. In addition to the gadgets, vehicular combat should also be a main part of James Bond games going forward because we see a lot of that in the movies. They should make the next James Bond game an open-world one and incorporate some aspects of Watch Dogs:Legion and GTA: V into their game.
skyfire Posted November 15, 2020 Posted November 15, 2020 I played few of the games in the past but honestly was never fan of the game to be honest.

skyfire Posted November 21, 2020 Posted November 21, 2020 Yeah it was more or less like other task based FPS games. I didn't honestly felt much thrill playing it to be honest.

skyfire Posted November 23, 2020 Posted November 23, 2020 I figured that. Even worst the graphics. I know if they make something strong today the graphics would be like Assasins creed level.

The main issue has always been the lackluster gameplay...
skyfire Posted November 28, 2020 Posted November 28, 2020 Yes with time that happened. My concern was more of it getting me excited about it. Which never happened to be honest.
TheSteelyardDweller Posted December 2, 2020 Posted December 2, 2020 i almost think more fun would be a game based on austin powers or matt helm movies with a goofy sense of humor
skyfire Posted December 4, 2020 Posted December 4, 2020 I thought james bond was never humor but more of action mystery type stuff. but none of the game give you that feeling.

Not to mention his infamous lines, most of us would probably spend more time laughing than actually playing the game. 7 hours ago, skyfire said: I thought james bond was never humor but more of action mystery type stuff. but none of the game give you that feeling.

Yeah kind of like any FPS can be max payne or serious sam, as long as the enemy and scenario matches the brand. ... james bond has literally nothing new in it.
