007 Legends Bringing Bond Back This Fall
Written Wednesday, April 18, 2012 By Richard Walker
View author's profile

Activision has announced that it's gearing up to release another dose of James Bond action this autumn with 007 Legends, which will celebrate Her Majesty's finest secret agent and his 50th anniversary. 007 Legends will be comprised of a selection of Bond's greatest missions from his 22 movie history, including scenes from this  year's Bond 23, Skyfall.

Bond will be packing his iconic Walther PPK  and his usual cache of gadgets for 007 Legends, which will apparently tie the game's missions together with an "original, overarching storyline tying together six classic Bond movies". Naturally, you'll visit a range of exotic locations from the movies, while wooing the ladies and dealing with a range of nefarious villains in Bond's inimitable 007 style.

GoldenEye 007: Reloaded's MI6 missions will also be returning for 007 Legends, complete with support for 4-player split-screen and online, with fresh maps, weapons and a motley cast of heroes and villains from 50 years of Bond history.

007 Legends will be launching this autumn, presumably to tie in with the release of Skyfall this November.

Arm yourself because no one else here will save you!

Even though Goldeneye Reloaded was basically Call of Duty in a James Bond skin (right down the the enemies running/firing animations), I enjoyed the single player.

The names Bond.... Call of Bond.
Any bet's it'll be just like that bastardised GoldenEye from last year, in that it's just call of Duty with a 007 Reskin. I enjoyed Blood Stone cause that was an original story and played from a third person perspective so you could tell it wasn't just pretending to be something else. They'll have to pull something big off to impress me. I love the Bond series, but I'm VERY suspicious about this. I'll wait till gameplay emerges.

The last 2 bond games were dissapointing for me. QoS was the one for me, that was brilliant

@3 goldeneye was released on the Wii a few years before it was released on xbox. The last game was poor, the additional objectives being my least favourite part, who wants to walk around missions pointing a phone at everything?

Why is no one asking the most important question?! Who is developing it?! Eurocom= no buy. The MP in Goldeneye Reloaded was some of the laggiest I've ever played. Also not happy to hear the Mi6 missions are back. Those were excruciatingly boring.

Well, I hope this is quality. That Call of Duty: Goldeneye rip-off was a tad disappointing. One of the last bond games I really enjoyed and was excited about was Everything or Nothing back on the original xbox. I thought that game was brilliant. Hopefully they manage to recapture the essence of Bond with this.

@3 Your comment fails as this is not a sequel to GoldenEye 007. Read the article carefully.

@20 I completely agree. For me the original Goldeneye was amazing and Everything or Nothing did a nice job of creating something new, but since then the Bond series has failed to impress. I still hold out hope, the same as I always hold out hope for many movie related game.

@23 I would also enjoy that, but Nightfire was published by Electronic Arts. So, since Activision has now the rights to make Bond games, a remake of Nightfire would be like the remake of GoldenEye. No Pierce Brosnan as Bond, diferent places, etc.

Since we are talking about Activision, I only hope they make a game as good as Quantum of Solace. In my opinion, the last two Bond games weren't that good.
And my bet about the six classic movies they mention, I think they are "Dr. No", "Goldfinger", "The Man with the Golden Gun", "Moonraker", "A View to Kill" and possibly "GoldenEye". Or they will pick the most famous James Bond films, each one made with a different actor.

@21 it may not be a direct sequel, but I'm willing to go on record that it WILL be another call of duty re-skin.

And who is James Bond? I thought putting Daniel Craig in GoldenEye was pretty blasphemous, you wouldn't put Timothy Dalton in Moonraker either. I'd rather have a generic Bond guy if there not doing the correct actor/movie combos.

Goldeneye reloaded was IMO not impressive compared to 007 nightfire, a brilliant game because of it's unique FPS style, I don't want another freaking call of duty we already have one a year, if this new 007 game lives up to that game or from Russia with love then I might consider picking it up

Dr. No, On Her Magesty's Secret Service, Live and Let Die, The Living Daylights, The World Is Not Enough and Casino Royale. plus The new Skyfall. those are my picks. although i am really torn between Monnraper er i mean Moonraker and Live and Let Die for Roger Moore choice.

I have to agree with most of you that I'm hoping that they're not just going to copy CoD again. I'd like it if they did something similar to Quantum of Solace or even Blood Stone. I actually enjoyed Blood Stone a lot.

Reloaded isn't too bad. Wish the online was a lot better though, not in terms of quality of the connection, but having to wait for a full lobby before you can do anything and if one person backs out, everyone loses.

Would love to see more, but if it turns into a marketing machine, then congratulations to Activision for killing off a classic FPS game.

Releasing it alongside CoD and Your-random-EA-Military-Shooter again - so no matter how good it is, it'll sell badly.
Why do they never learn from their mistakes?
