- 3rd person shooting
- Free-roaming. Lets have multiple ways to get through levels such as running through blowing everything up, or quietly going through unnoticed or even pretending to be one of the guards and be given points on how "Bond-like" it was.
- Multiple vehicle choices. Should also be free roaming. No matter what the level, you choose the vehicle (like the third level of EON where you can choose the bike instead if you want)
-Card game mini games.
- Unlockable mode if you complete the game to play as another Bond ( a fannish request i know, but it'd but it'd be so cool).
-Actors voicing their own characters (All games since EON have pretty much done this anyway)
-Massive muti-player. I'm thinking like Goldeneye or Nightfire but in thrid person. Also Co-Op mode, the one in EON was great, twas a shame EA never used it again. Activision should put it into a future Bond game.
-Original plot line. Having it tied directly to a film automatically gives it a stigma and they're beaten before they start, they should make it an original plot and get actual actors to do the supporting roles alongside Craig, Dench, Wright etc.
Basically i think every game has always got something right, now its time to put it all into a new Bond game.
I agree on most of these thhings
Perosnally I'd like the game to be written or at the very least the story of the game to be writeen by Someone familiar with the bond franchise Michael G Wilson perhaps or Purvis and wade.
Personnaly I'd call the game 007 in new york (it sounds like a video game title more then a film title anyways) and have it reference Quantum and CR (perhaps maybe with a flashback level to port au prince hait or the Casino Royale embassy) but for the most part it's a new game primarily set in NYC where bond has to find unconver infiltrate and stop a Quantum cell with Mr White being the head honcho of the quantum cell.
Almost like a a mini story between QOS and Bond 23. But one that if say u don't see u can still pick up Bond 23 .
I think that would be cool.
Plus I keep going back to Batman arkham Asylum and Splinter Cell Conviction as my sort of how it would be done. Both involve a sort of sand box type elemtn where u can exploire the entire area and there multiple ways in and out of an area. Bataman arkham asylum goes one step further and brought in Batman writer Paul Dini to write the game (as well as bringing in voice actors from the animated series which i love) I just think it would be cool rather hten have soem game writer come up with an over the top plot(EON) or have a writer decide which bits of the film would work best. Bring in someone who knows bond and can say
"lets have a level at a casino and you have to get to the roof of the casino to listen in to a conversation of quantum members now you can do this different ways u can play in the casino to win enough money to bribe gaurds you can sneak in either from the outside or inside or you can just grab a machine gun and kill everyone and then interiogate the last living member of the meeting."
no video game writer would dream of that cause he's thinking "well what interms of gameplayablity can our designers do" MGW or Bruce fernstien or Purvis and wade etc. Are thinking what will apease the bond fan most just shooiting up a place or getting to do different things as 007like play cards and use stealth.
but then again just my 2 cents.
