    little early for those types of recreations, no?
    ;)
    anyway, nice to see a new bond title being made i really hope this will bring the series back to its roots.
    i miss the bond games of the ps1 days like tomorrow never dies.
    thats probably by far my most favorite bond title, it had so many cool gadgets for you to play around with.
    bond games are suppose to be spy games, so that means you need lots of gadgets to play around with, and it also needs to be a stealth game.
    i miss the good old days where bond titles had you hiding in a corner watching enemies paths, sneaking up silently killing them than dragging there body out of other enemies line of sight.
    i really wish someone would give us a proper stealth game like that, just like how stealth games use to be.
    stalking the hallways, dragging bodies, planing attacks, shooting security cameras, dodging laser beams.
    now thats a stealth game, not this crap they call MGS4 or splinter cell conviction!
