There are certain similarities beetween the video game James Bond 007 Nightfire and James Bond 007 Moonraker the feature length film. One of them is that the main villian's last name in Nightfire is Drake. Whereas in Moonraker His last name is Drax. Secondly there is a space fight at the end. Anyone know what I mean?

I can see that, but I suppose it's just eye of the beholder on how coincidental that may be. :)

Also, wasn't Drake supposed to be helping the world maintain peace (by disposing of nuclear warheads)? This is quite similar to the Drax of the Moonraker novel.

Well, it took Bond's sniping abilities and put them to the test and also put his stealth abillities to the test. There was a baddy, Kiko which a female Bond lover has never gone bad ina Bond game before.
