Did anyone else use to have (or maybe even still have) The Ultimate James Bond An Interactive Dossier.

 

I used to have it and thought it was great. 

 

I'd love to see an updated version become available.

Ohhh I loved this, and still do. Shame it peaks with 'GoldenEye' but it got me through many years with learning about Bond in all his glory. A wonderful piece of software with some great clips and trivia.

 

The quiz was great too!

 

I'd love an updated version also.

Wasn't there a downloadable update for Tomorrow Never Dies or was I just dreaming about that. But yeah an up to date version would be extremely welcomed by me.

I still own this.  It was fun for an evening or three, but was eclipsed by the internet's larger content capabilities very quickly.  Still glad I own it.  Someone should recreate its content as a website and update it.

I don't think there was an update for 'Tomorrow Never Dies', at least I wasn't aware of it.

 

I may have to install it again now and have a go at that quiz - see how my trivia has improved over the last 15 years since playing it!

I thought the Dossier was amazing too. I still have my copy with the box.

 

If anyone is interested in buying my copy, please PM me.

I agree. MGM should have it online. It was very well done. I loved the trailers and the movie reviews. The film reviews played music from the score in the background as well.

 

It would be great to have it online.

When it was released I didn't own a computer, so I didn't buy it.

A couple of years ago I bought two from someone, one opened and one still sealed. But frankly I never had the urge to try it out. I heard that it was very, very slow.
