For a complete overview of Everything or Nothing (characters, cars, locations, levels...) go HERE.

It's been quite a while since this was originally posted, but it's quite a good article on the game. Interesting stuff.

It just helped someone today

I find this quite helpful. EoN is clearly one of the best James Bond games we've had in a long time.

I agree Loyal Terrior. In fact, I'd say it's also one of best Bond movies we've had in some time.

And Athena's overview kicks ***.

Welcome to CBn.

If Dr Katya Nadanove has been kidnapped, Bond goes and recues her. But he drops her off at some shally place in the jungle, where she later sees Nikolai Diavolo. Surely if she's been kidnapped then why doesn't Bond take her to MI6.

I would appreciate it if someone could tell me or knew why the above happens. Its for my novel adaption of the game.

Which level is that in, Gri007?

She has a thing about wanting to go back to the jungle after a near death experience. Being around the monkies, lions, and bears has a soothing effect on her.

Funny, but with all the "new" Bond games, books, and movies being remakes, prequels, or GERA-like experiments...I now think of EoN as the last original Bond adventure in the tradition of Cubby Broccoli & Harry Saltzman.

But why does Bond not take her back to mi6.

Even better guys just found a solution. M had got a safe house for Doctor Katya nadanova in the jungle, whilst she is on the train she knows Bond is after her. She rings Nikoli Diavolo and tells her to meet her at the safe house. This will tell the reader that she is working for Diavolo. He breaks in.

Havnt notice the Mya scene yet. Just seems bizarre that MI6 have sent Bond out to rescue her and then drops her off in the middle of no where. He doesn't seem bothered!

This sounds like a good idea. I'm past level 9 (the ruined tower - ok so i haven't got round to playing it much!) and already i think it would make a great film, so have started the screenplay for a version of it.

I hope no one takes offense but I will be honest:

I felt EON had good things and bad things woven into the game.

1. I know it's 007 but there is too much shooting. Bond surpassed The Terminator and Rambo when it came to the number of bullets fired in the game.

2. Loved how the game felt like a movie. They did a fantastic job of working on facial expressions and cut scenes. Two thumbs way up.

3. Not enough tuxedo. You play the game mostly in a black field suite. Saying "Bond, James Bond" only sounds suave in a tuxedo.

4. Great choice of vehicles. The Porsche fit in well along with the multiple
bikes.

Overall a good game but did not surpass Goldeneye64.

Going back and playing through the levels where Jaws is featured. RIP Richard Kiel.

That motorbike chase on the highway is mental, but such good fun!

I love that level. Also, the leap of faith.

[Call Billy Bob]

So many good parts of that game, not to mention Willem Dafoe - probably not going to see him in an actual film, but it's good enough that we got him in this, Brosnan's "fifth film."

[thecasinoroyale]

When it came out I replayed the "Leap Of Faith" segment over and over...something about freefalling like that was total nonsense but such good Brosnan Bond fun!

[seawolfnyy]

One thing I've always wondered is why we tend to heap praise all over Everything or Nothing and s*** on Die Another Day, when EoN seems to be way more OTT than DAD? Is it because EoN works being a video game, while Die Another Day was at best a video game trying to be a movie? Having said that, I would love if EoN and DAD switched places and Everything or Nothing was Brosnan's final film. I think there was a rumor at one point that there were plans to adapt the game as Bond 21 before Brosnan stepped down, or am remembering that incorrectly?

[Gothamite]

EoN is undoubtedly even sillier than DAD, Bond is barely even a character in it (just a faceless catalyst who spouts puns every time he opens his mouth). The game works because DAD freed the developers from any pretense of realism and they were able to just go completely spy-fi with it, with all kinds of clever innovations and crazy gadgets as well as the traditional far-fetched stunts (free-falling over the side of a mountain while shooting baddies was rollicking good fun).

 

I love the game but I don't think the story is what makes it good. I don't think it would work for a film at all.

No it wouldn't.

That's why it's a game and not a film.

[Call Billy Bob]

It did teach us one thing though... Willem Dafoe needs to be a Bond film villain.

[tdalton]

Everything or Nothing wouldn't make for a particularly good movie, I don't think.  As a game, it's decent, certainly the best Bond videogame that isn't titled GoldenEye 007.
