who sees the games as just another bond mission? like another movie, just in our hands? cuz the way they r made now, it sure is like it, its just with the games they can use the stuff that made dad stupid (cgi :) ) without having someone criticies (i prob spelt that wrong, oh well ive been awake for 10 mins :) )it for it (unless they suck).

Well, haven't the Bond games basically been "movies" of a sort and then adapted into a game? Look at GoldenEye 64, Tomorrow Never Dies and The World is not Enough for example. Others like Agent Under Fire and EoN follow the same route as well. :)

NightFire... Everything or Nothing... and now Rogue Agent. Ya... totally... they're like little animated Bond movies, I agree. And I rather enjoy them, myself. It's like... you can have Bond do really outrageous stuff in the games that he couldn't do in the movies without just looking stupid. I

I've always seen them as such, especially those like Nightfire or EON. For this reason, I'm not too keen to see a Bond game that takes 30+ hours to plough through. I thought Nightfire was a good length for a Bond adventure, but it definitely could've used some bonus levels (possibly based on the films). If you're copying the Bond formula, there's only so much filler you can add without it feeling like overkill. Honestly, if you're 10 hours in, and Bond still hasn't figured it out...

But I do hope they return to the kind of replay value that Goldeneye had. The great thing about Goldeneye was that the single player also had a lot of replay value. Nowadays people focus on the MP at the expense of the single player, imo.

I still wanna play a DAD based 007 game, then I wouldn't mind the CGI.

A Die Another Day based James Bond just seems to be the obvious one for EA to do next. I don't see why they wouldn't as games were created for the previous three James Bond 007 films. I'd love to see what they could do for this one.

Seeing that DAD is over two years old I highly doubt it. Besides, I'd rather see an origional idea for a Bond game and no more movie adaptions.
