Not sure if anyone has already posted regarding this, but I recently got the game and made a pleasant discovery. In the second half of the "Istanbul Pt.1" level, the music distinctly incorporates a key theme from the Diamonds Are Forever movie score. As you are rappelling and shooting your way to the tank, you'll hear the music played in DAF when Bond dispatches the henchmen in the pretitle and later when he battles Franks in the elevator. It brought a smile to my face to hear this in the game, even though it, like several other elements, is actually from another Bond movie. Anyone else notice this musical homage?

I didn't notice this but I did notice that the OHMSS theme descending bassline makes an appearance several times.

In Nightfire, when Bond is on the roof of the Phoenix International building when Drake says "Goodbye Dominique" they do a little snippet of the Thunderball theme song. Also, in battle TWINE and OHMSS come in as music. Then while you're underwater in "Deep Descent" there's also more Thunderball type music.
