    I could see Die Another Day gettingin the six because it is incredibly action-packed and strangely enough, was the only Brosnan movie not to be made a game, and it came out during a gaming high!

    It's a real possibility and there could be some awesome levels. I think the hovercraft and fencing scenes would be a real treat to play out.

    Indeed, add in with those the fight with Zao in the Cuban clinic, Mr. Kil with the lasers, the car chase on ice, and the plane finale, and you've got one doozy of a set of levels!

    I wonder how much of each film will be playable? At the moment this project just doesn't seem realistic. I assume they will tie one story together that has all the selected action from the chosen films going on??

    Yeah, that's what I was thinking, how will they approach using each of the six? It'll probably just be the stealth missions, gun fights, fist-fights, and car chases of each movie I'm betting. If that's the target, then the six they'll use have to be action loaded.

    I just hope we also get a separate Skyfall game as well, just its own game. And since Bloodstone was 3rd person I have high hopes one of these games will be in that perspective.

    Yeah, Blood Stone's 3rd Person was exceptionally good, I hope that'll be the same with 007 Legends, especially since with the six movies aspect, we'll probably be playing as different Bonds, unless they pull a GoldenEye Wii and make us play as Daniel Craig where he doesn't belong. In the former's case, we'd need a good 3rd person to let us see the Bond we're playing as.

    Exactly, and that's why I hate 1st person games. I want to see my full surroundings and my character, and establish them in that environment.

    @Brady: First Person games are pretty good if done correctly, but I agree with you that 3rd are better, but again, if done properly. I didn't like EoN's third person, so it nearly ruined the game for me. Nightfire, however, has an epic first person. I guess it depends on how it is approached, and I hope that Legends gets it right, because if they do, this might easily be one of the greatest James Bond video games of all time!

    Now the question is...are we still getting two games this year or is this the only one? They announced this game much earlier than their previously Bond games so maybe E3? But I think this sounds awesome and cant wait to play it

    Exactly my thoughts.

    If they're going to call it 007 Legends then they should give each player the ability to play as their favourite Bond. From Connery to Craig. Alas, it's not likely to be so.
    I just hope it's not in first person shooter format, if it is then I'm not buying it. Power to the people who like those types of games, it is just not my cup of tea.

    THEY BETTER HAVE ALL BONDS..... THEY CANT DO IT WITHOUT IT.
    HOW ARE YOU GOING OT HAVE A LEGENDS GAME WITHOUT THE LEGENDS.

    Well, thats before I read into it, (just my initial reaction) Im sure it will be good.
    I was a Goldeneye N64 fanatic and old school GS hacker, ridiculous, but was so fun.
    The biggest disappointment was a IGN April fools prank of an almost impossible setting on 007 mode beating Aztec to achieve "All Bonds Mode"... which I did and didnt get the cheat, then later found it was a hoax. DEVASTATED (O-o)

    what the hell they stole my idea of multiple tiemlines of Bond
    but all in all:

    Goldeneye
    The Spy Who Loved Me
    Goldfinger
    Casino Roylae

    oh wait its just Daniel Craig's Bond? F' that get all Bonds- Connery, Moore, Dalton and Brosnan

    Pretty unrevealing trailer. The site is also online, but it's equally unrevealing

    I'll reserve my feelings until the day they announce more information. Original overarching plotline that ties together 6 classic adventures? At the moment I'm not sure where they're going with this. I'm pretty sure they'll do something goldeneye'y with this, since the adventures are supposed to tie in with the Skyfall plot, and post Die Another Day - era is a rebooted era. Craig's Bond hasn't yet married so that leaves out OHMSS if they're going to tie in the classic adventures with the new movie. The Best of collection wouldn't definitely be an overarching plot. More like bits and pieces from another era. They'll probably choose movies that could be given a Craig-Bond makeover.

    And what about the 'play as a villain part'? Only in MI6 ops I presume. If they'll do it withing the actual game, then you'd have to have villains that don't just sit behind the desk stroking a persian pussy...cat.

    I think they're probably just going to have Craig as Bond because if they use other actors, the timeline might get all screwed up, and people playing the game (who aren't Bond fans) won't understand the changing character image.

    But believe me, I think the should use all actors.

    It's just Craig-Bond ;

    Our story begins deep in murky, watery depths. You’re James Bond, and you’re drifting, unconscious. You don’t know
    why – only that you’re struggling for your life like never before. In moments of cognizance, you recall epic moments
    from the last 50 years. The harrowing chases. The uber-villains. The exotic locales. The girls.

    What will be your legend if this is the end?

    In 007 Legends, you’ll take on the role of James Bond as played by Daniel Craig, running missions in the most iconic
    settings of 007’s five-decade film history. The places and times remain classified, but each retains the look and feel of
    the original movies, updated with reimagined characters, expanded gameplay and exciting new plotlines.

    Which brings us back to your current predicament. The clock is ticking. Will this be yet another close brush with death,
    or has your remarkably good luck dried up at last?

    Only you can answer that, Bond.

    ^ From official site

    And it's FPS ; http://www.empireonline.com/news/story.asp?NID=33699

    Is it just me or does this seem dangerously too close to Jason Bourne?

    So it's all a dream? OK then, this should be interesting. I'll be sure to buy this, the trailer was alright as well.

    The graphics on the 'get in the game' character were less than impressive. *sigh

    The 'drifting in the water' and 'ticking of the clock' sounds eerily familiar with the fan fic about the sinking ship I wrote, doesn't it?

    Maybe I can subconsciously see the future :)

    They better have all the Bonds in multiplayer. If I can't play as Dalton I am going to be pissed.

    Anybody else notice that the handgun in that social trailer was the P99, and not the PPK? They also showed a DBS.

    What would be REALLY cool (though I doubt they'd do it) is if they had Daniel Craig's Bond as the main character, but have unlockable "costumes" that transformed him into the other actors.

    Yeah, I'd like that too. I just read on the official new site that it'll be Daniel Craig as 007 which makes me very sad...I was hoping I'd finally get to play as Roger Moore!

    Maybe we'll get them for multiplayer but I wont hold my breath.

    This game seems promising I just hope that it lives up to its potential. I have faith in Eurocom, they've made some great Bond games and obviously resect the character, I just hope Activision gives them enough support

    Indeed, the multiplayer aspect would be quite exciting! I hope we'll get some classic maps like the volcano lair, Scaramanga's island, Trevelyan's base, etc. and of course, loads of villains/allies to play as. It'd be really fun to mix and match different characters in different times and locations, with different Bonds!

    I knew this was going to be an FPS.

    I'm not really feeling so gungho about this game. Maybe if newer material comes out and it impresses me my interest may increase but for the time being, as the dragons say, I'm out.
