GoldenEye 007 remains the fan favourite, sure, but I&rsquo;ve always preferred 007&rsquo;s original experiences to direct adaptations. When EA had the Bond licence in the Pierce Brosnan era, 007 got creative. Not always successfully, sadly. Excluding spin-offs like 007 Racing, Agent Under Fire was a middling first attempt, though Nightfire brought a considerable improvement. For me, it never got better than this.\n<\/p>\n<p>\nMany fans unofficially consider for Everything or Nothing to be Brosnan&rsquo;s fifth Bond film, and it&rsquo;s not hard to see why. Having worked on GoldenEye, Tomorrow Never Dies, and The World is Not Enough, Bruce Fierstein was brought back once again, penning a script fitting that era. Linking back to A View to a Kill, we found Max Zorin&rsquo;s apprentice, Nikolai Diavolo, seeking revenge on Bond for Zorin&rsquo;s death. That, and he&rsquo;s trying to recreate the Soviet Union with the help of Nanobots. Because&hellip; well, it&#8217;s worth a go, I guess? <\/p>\n<p>\nIt wouldn&rsquo;t be a Bond film without the star-studded cast, and the game didn&rsquo;t disappoint. While Nightfire simply used Brosnan&rsquo;s likeness with a different voice actor, Everything or Nothing brought back the Irish actor one more time, marking his last ever appearance before Daniel Craig took over. Judi Dench, John Cleese, and Richard Kiel returned as M, Q, and Jaws respectively, while fresh faces like Heidi Klum&rsquo;s Dr. Nadanova and Shannon Elizabeth&rsquo;s Serena St. Germaine rounded this out.<br \/>\nWillem Dafoe&rsquo;s casting as Diavolo was particularly inspired though. It&rsquo;s a damn shame we&rsquo;ll likely never see him cast in a main film but for this, he played Diavolo well. We can&rsquo;t forget M&yacute;a either, nor her high energy theme song that I still remember now.\n<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurogamer.net\/007-everything-or-nothing-is-the-best-james-bond-film-we-never-had\">Read more<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.eurogamer.net\/007-everything-or-nothing-is-the-best-james-bond-film-we-never-had\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There hasn&rsquo;t been a James Bond game that captured the superspy&rsquo;s spirit as perfectly as Everything or Nothing.
