The video game adaptation of the tenth adventure of the famous secret agent. In fact, it’s based on Spy Hunter (arcade, 1983). Ironically, the James Bond license was denied to the original game.
The early levels look like a model train set (a bit like Super Cars). Expect car chases in the iconic submersible Lotus Esprit, shoot’em up sections with decent visuals, and later, shooting sequences with a reticle (like in POW). It makes for a game that’s relatively easy to control and diverse, though very challenging.
“Well done, James.”
And, yes, I’m cheating like a slob. Remove one point without a trainer.
