Nightfire gunbarrel sequence?

Does Nightfire have the gunbarrel sequence at the beginning, or is it just like AUF showing an opening cutscene? (The AUF opening cutscene would have been perfect taking place after the gunbarrel!)
I remember seeing that Goldeneye had its own gunbarrel sequence, and I was sort of disappointed that AUF didn't have its own one. It didn't really detract from the game, it just would have been good to add a more Bondish feel to the beginning rather than just showing a helicopter landing...

I live in Germany, so I have to wait for NF until November 29th, but:
could anyone post the music of the gunbarrel sequence here?
PS: There IS a gunbarrel sequence in NF which revealed the NF interview at CBn some weeks ago.

The good news is that NF has the best gunbarrel sequence of any Bond game.
It plays as part of the cutscene every time you play the first level, rather than just appearing when you first turn the game on (it's been a while, but wasn't that the way GE's sequence did?).
It's also very cinematic, with the gunbarrel opening up to reveal the Eiffel Tower, 5 minutes to midnight on New Year's Eve.

A gunbarrel sequence would have been perfect for AUF on the first level, opening to reveal the helicopter landing.
I don't think a theme song would have suited it, but perhaps an instrumental.

It doesn't remind me of a Britney Spears' song- with one of her annoying, erratic dance beats. (Although, the vocalist does remind me of Sheryl Crow/Gwen Stefani the way that she delivers a few of the early lines.)
It just sounds like they went for something that could actually end up as a Bond theme in the current state of pop music.

It has a small music video/Title Sequence with a title song called "Nearly Civilized" performed by Esthero.
It has a Gun Barrel Sequence for Mission 1 [Paris Prelude]. The music sounds alot like Tomorrow Never Dies gun barrel sequence. Really well done.
Well, the game has it's ups and downs but above all it's the best Bond game since GoldenEye that's for sure.

If you go to Options menu in NightFire, you will find the game's Credits. Watch the first 30 seconds and it will show the name of the song and the perfomer, esthero. I think the song is really good. I have the intro-video/song downloaded on my computer, if you have msn messenger i'll give it to you, just give me your email, i'll add you to my msn and i'll give you it.
