The next mission for 007 Legends is going to be revealed tomorrow! Any ideas about what the second mission will entail?
Place your bets!!
I am going to go for.... "Live And Let Die".

It'll most likely be a Connery film that they unveil tomorrow. I'd guess either Goldfinger or You Only Live Twice. There will be another Moore film included in the game, or perhaps two as I think the game will be split something along these lines: 2 or 3 Connery, 2 or 3 Moore, 1 Brosnan, 1 Craig.
I don't know, t. Based on Bruce Feirstein's comments in that video posted a while back, it sounds like we'll be getting one film for each actor.

I must have missed that one. I'll have to go back and take a look.

I hope the levels are substantial though. When it was first announced, I thought they would be like GoldenEye, for example, Nigeria split into three missions Jungle, Solar and GoldenEye.
All they've shown are screens from one "scenario" for each movie; it gives the impression there will literally just be 6 levels in the whole game.

As a gamer and Bond fan, it's been very frustrating. I just want to play a game where I'm Bond blasting enemies in actual locations from the films like in GoldenEye 64, Tomorrow Never Dies, and The World is Not Enough. EA's original stories weren't awful, but I feel no personal connection to the games because they aren't actually from any of the Bond films I love so much.
Now we have Activision, churning out freak-versions of sets and hybrid stories. Unfortuanetly, a lot of people who buy these games aren't necessarily die-hard Bond fans and have only seen a few films, they're more interested in the shooting then say, Bond authenticity.
I wish Nintendo would acquire the license again and let Retro Studios develop. That said, I'll wait to pass judgement on the game until I actually play it.

...but, then again, maybe that's exactly what Activision is doing in an attempt to snare complete Bond fanatics. I'd say EON insisted upon it in some kind of amazing fit of foresight, but I highly doubt it.

I think it will be a nice moment raging through Piz Gloria - and let's hope maybe we have orchestral music to go with the action rather than electronica pulse-pounding beats!
I'm afraid the settings of classic Bond films and villains will be used as a template for a generic action / shooter - it's the only thing we'll probably get as a 50th treat, basing the game around familiar settings. But, it's too early to judge the narrative of the game, just exciting we've another classic on the cards.
Eyes down for the next one...Brosnan or Dalton anyone?

It looks like we are indeed bound for a primarily shoot em up experience here. I'm glad they're including OHMSS, but still. This will likely be a 6 hour game at the absolute most. 6 missions broken into a few segments won't hold too many gamers' attentions. Still waiting to hear on the multiplayer, as that could be the saving grace if they include a good Spec Ops segment.
It'll definitely be a short game, no doubt about that. Most of the Bond games have been short, so it that's not much of a surprise. Hopefully they don't make the game too much of a shoot-em-up experience, as it would be nice if they could combine some stealth elements as well, but that doesn't appear to be, sadly, what we're in store for here.

We'll never get the Bond game we deserve with the wealth of material out there.
The one thing that could save Legends is multiplayer, if we can use classic character skins in classic locations so we can make our OWN Bond-style battles with places and faces we know and love. Here's hoping....!

Honestly, seeing as OHMSS is easily among my favorite Bond movies, I'll be buying this game.
Simply due to the possibility of having classic battles with friends outside and within Piz Gloria, really interests me.

A) Won't know who Hillary Bray is to the film, and
Don;t care who Hillary Bray is in the film.
They will throw in James Bond (Daniel Craig, remember), right into Piz Gloria on an attack via helecopter and non-stop shooting ensures with millions of Blofelds henchmen, not the odd few like the film.
They're sugar coating it with Bond films for the true fans, but pushing the shooter game vibe for everyone else they want to buy it.

Yup, after getting over the pleasant suprise of them choosing OMSSS and inspecting digital DIana RIgg, my next thoughts were that they have to get the score right. It's just as important as the characters and locations in the case of OHMSS.
