    The idea that Q is a stylish dresser, and that not only does that rub off on Bond but his sense of style is the reason why agents get Omegas and Aston Martins, is quite a neat one.
    Not to mention the cigarette lighter bonus, which if provided by Q himself, could lead to Bond smoking a pack a day?

    Ha! Yes, Q’s a killer in more ways than one!

    That's better - less syllables.

    Come to think of it he did offer ciggies in the TLD video game.

    First Light looks awesome, love the gameplay and dialogue. I think they missed a trick with the legacy edition - to not include the earpiece set or (recording?) pen from the actual game - but rather the golden gun (an icon for sure but from a previous era and thus not really exciting). Will try and get that set anyway, for the COA card...

    Random observations and musings:

    Q-Branch technicians wear yellow safety earmuffs, like in TMWTGG

    Bond wears the same style chauffeur hat as Tibbett

    One of the bottles behind the bar is labeled 'Luna Blue'. In the 2015 game World of Espionage, there is a character called Estrella Luna, who is a 'rare agent', designated level colour blue.

    One of the weapons is the 'Knight 1 AR', perhaps unlikely to be named after Steven Knight considering the timing, but came to mind.

    Also some slightly annoying Americanisms ('parking lot') but never mind.
    What do you call it in the UK?

    I like how in Calvin's video he claimed that the new Q looks like he could've been a suave charmer spy thirty years ago. Although M looks more like Gia Sandhu to me rather than Priyanga Burford.
    Turns out it was a good call on Burford, I still don't think it looks like her though! :D
    It was a good call indeed, if a total fluke because it certainly doesn't look like her.

    But that a shame that :
    1) the game not use real names for firearm but fictive ones
    Yes it's always nice to have the real names for added authenticity, and I'm not really a fan of the weapon shapes looking a bit different, but at the same time it's kinda cool to have new weapons appearing in Bond's world.

    Shame they didn't bring back the Wolfram!
    Missed opportunity for sure. Same for the PP7 or PK7.

    There's also the Specialist Edition which features classic tuxedo outfit:

    Young Bond looks fantastic.
