"Golden what?"

Storyline:9/10
A very interesting story, with strong characters to help
move it along. Big name stars appear in this game and they all make it worth playing even more. As usual someone threatens the world and MI6 has to make sure it's stopped. With appearances from Willam Dafoe(rock on!), Jaws(yahoo go Jaws go!),Shannon Elizabeth and of course, Pierce Brosnan. Definitly worth the money, so quit reading and go buy it!

Controls:8/10
The only complaint I have with this game, is Bond sometimes acts as if he has been bludgeoned in the head with a tackhammer. Now don't get me wrong I love Bond, but when a solider 5ft away is pumping lead into you and Bond targets the guy 70ft from you it tends to be a little annoying. The learning curve was simple, I had in down in less then an hour of play. The variety of moves Bond wields throughout this game are marvelous, and it never tires to take out enemies bare-handed or gun blazing.

Graphics:9/10
The best realistic graphics I have seen in awhile. The detail to explosions and speech and facial features is by far one of the best. The detail to terrain damage is realistic as well as heart pounding, it feels as if it's a movie and your actually there doing what Bond is doing.

Sound:9/10
The music is a Bond as it gets. The FX in-game is bar none realistic, guards talking, the clickety-click of the Q-Spider running around,it's all very impressive. All the actors voices are entwined in here as well, making this game seem so alive. This is definitly a game to see and hear.

Fun Factor:10/10
This has to be the best action game out there now. I have never been so hooked before. Explosions,sliding under trucks,ramping,rappeling off exploding buildings and so much much more, if anything rent this game, play it, pick up your brain and go buy it.PERFECTION!

Replay Value:10/10
After unlocking all the missions, some of them have an ungodly replay value, the action and flow of the game is fun as well as edge of your seat white knuckle excitement. I often wonder if there is any Bond game as good? What's that you say? Golden what?

Final Thought:
Bottom line? THIS IS THE BOND GAME TO END ALL BOND GAMES!
I don't think my brain could handle a Bond game better than this one. Everything is near-perfect and it never gets old.
I strongly recommend this game to everyone, give it a try it's worth it.
