Just curious as to whether anyone here has played any of these. I have
two for the Playstation2. "Agent Under Fire" and "From Russia With
Love." I haven't even touched "FRWL" yet, I'm still on "Under Fire"
trying to get down the damn tube shooting agents and getting the bad
guy! (My wife has finished it already and is working on finding all the
"007" moments and well as collecting the "007" tokens scattered around
the field on the second play. I'll be happy if I can finish the damn
thing!

"Everything or Nothing" is the best game by EA, but if you get on Ebay
you can pick yourself up an N64 with "GoldenEye" for a few bucks :)

Yeah, the best are probably (in this order)
- Goldeneye
(huge gap)
- Everything or Nothing
- From Russia With Love

And where do you fit in Nightfire and Agent Under Fire? Nightfire is quite
the enjoyable game.

I bought an N64 just so that I could play GoldenEye. It's the only N64
game I've ever owned and I doubt I'll ever tire of it.

Of EA's releases on current gen consoles, it probably goes something
like:
1) Everything or Nothing
2) NightFire
3 tied) From Russia With Love / Agent Under Fire
7,864,376) GoldenEye: Rogue Agent
GoldenEye N64 trumps the lot of course.
With the except of TWINE, the less said about earlier efforts on PSX
the better.

I own all the EA games (though I can't account for what happened to
TWINE). I'm on the last level of "Everything or Nothing" (have been
since, like, December, I think). I've played the first few levels of
"From Russia With Love" and I really want to know why it's not bigger
commercially. I know some purists are upset with the license EA took
with the storyline, but hell, EON didn't *translate* Ian Fleming's
novel, either; they, too, *adapted* it to their medium.
I haven't really gotten 'round to "Agent," "Nightfire" or "Rogue Agent"
yet. Like Shep, I bought an N64 just so I could play "GoldenEye." I,
of course, suck at first person games, so I spent about a month just
running around in circles alternatively shooting the sky and my feet.
Like the films, they're generally enjoyable fare; some are alright,
some are outright great. Personally, I'd like to see them do a game
version of "The Spy Who Loved Me" with Sir Roger.

Domark already attempted it back in 1990 (how far things have come in
such a short space of time!!)

I agree with you though, a third-person-perspective outing of TSWLM
would be a pretty atractive offering. The story lends itself well to
the Bond videogame template that EA have been honing.

Oh. Just how does one join this TZMSARD Society? Do you just have to
know Vince or just bring bottles of Absolut? ;-)

EA hasn't announced anything. They never officially announced the game
either.

Grey Goose. And knowing Vince is not a prerequisite but is always
appreciated.

How does Bond resolve the selection of the gypsy women?

Oh, I thing Nightfire is much better than evrything or nothing. It is more
like a old James Bond movie and not like one of these new Actionbonds.
