A good game, but...

Don't get me wrong, this is not at all a bad game. What makes it get only three stars is the fact that it doesn't measure up to Goldeneye. And yes, if you ask, i'd say it is worth your [money] to own. It's overall a worthwhile buy and a fair amount of fun. One thing that sets it apart from Goldeneye is that its a lot more intricate and complicated than Goldeneye when it comes to accomplishing all mission objectives, etc. There's more achieving and less shooting. Although you'll hear a lot of people complain about this, I don't think the A.I. level is satisfactory. With Goldeneye, its bad, but not this bad. In one level, I can simply walk casually behind a sentry without being noticed. But its tolerable, I guess. One cool thing about the A.I. is that when a guard spots you he'll yell, "bond is here!"
or "there is an intruder, raise the alarm!" or "kill him!" there is one level in which you can't alert the henchmen, Gabor, or else you fail. In this one, the guards actually say, "quickly, call gabor!" Also, if you come up behind a guard when they are not aware of your presence they go, "Who's there?" or "what was that?" and then they reach for the sky and drop their weapons. This feature is pointless, though, because you can't do anyhting afterwards than kill the poor [person] , and, if you walk too far away they'll pull out a sidearm and start shooting again. It's also cool that they say everything in a [foreign] accent. The guns are great, too. They have a crossbow, the 9mm, a silenced machine-gun pistol, a magnum with a sniper sight, a magnum with a laser sight, an auto shotgun, a sub-machine gun, an oozie type gun, A super- quiet sniper rifle, A shorter ranged auto sniper rifle, somthing like the rcp-90 but only with 50 rounds, a loud but powerful sniper rifle, an assault rifle, something else like the kf-7 soviet (ak-47), a speargun, a single-shot grenade launcher, a single shot missle launcher, a huge 4-shot missle launcher with a system allowing you to guide the missle itslef (great for helicopter hunting in one level), stun grenades, frag grenades, a "sticky" grenade, body armor, x-ray glasses, night vision goggles, a watch with a laser/dart/stunner/grapple, a safe cracker, keypad decrypter,pen grenade. whoa. Also, all weapons have an alternate firing method (auto or burst, laser aim or not, etc.). whats also good is that the basic gun holds 16 rounds. of course, all of these guns have names, but if you don't own the game then they are irelevant. So, overall,this game gets a three. worth your green but not Goldeneye status.

Surprisingly more than enough

This is of course the video game adaptation of the third James Bond movie featuring Pierce Brosnan. It's also a kind of sequel to the N64 classic GoldenEye, though it's developed by Eurocom rather than Rareware.

I'm not sure how well this game sold, but it's a surprisingly above-average effort considering the expectations it had to live up to. It borrows heavily from the control scheme established by GoldenEye while throwing in a few new modifications (ability to jump, new gadgets, etc). The graphics are pretty solid, including some nice scripted animations of bad guys jumping in through windows and other effects. A lot of care was put into the movie license with solid voice acting (including John Cleese as R) and detailed recreations of key movie scenes and sets, a rarity in older games. Also like GoldenEye, you can unlock secrets such as new multiplayer characters by completing missions within a certain time limit.

The problem is that while The World is Not Enough is a strong effort on its own, it still pales to GoldenEye and also Perfect Dark, which was Rare's other masterpiece shooter for the N64. Enemy AI is pretty weak, and its robotic nature occasionally pulls you out of the cinematic experience. The decent amount of multiplayer options simply doesn't match the massive bucketload that Perfect Dark offered, and again the AI bots are lacking. Finally, the biggest annoyance is that the game needs the controller pak for save files. Other games need the controller pak too, but saving to the cartridge is always easier.

If you collect all things James Bond, The World is Not Enough is a solid title to grab (and is much stronger than the completely different PSX version). If you're looking for a good N64 shooter to fill out your collection with, this is also highly recommended, though you may want to try Perfect Dark first.

POW POW POW POW POW POW

If you liked the title, that game was made for you. With dazzling graphics( just like the movie{same sightseeing, same charcters, even the ski and helicopters, even the black boat and the watch!!}don't miss!!) You have the oportunity to handle more then 20 diferent weapons, a big bunch of gadgets, and the multiplayer game is UNBELIEVABLE. Invite a friend and kill him 50 times. You will not get bored, i promise you. Every time your enemy die you have a diferent feeling. There are a lot of weapons, characters, scenarios and game types in multiplayer. You can play above an airplane, in Instanbul , on a Labirynth... The voices of characthers are the same of the movie, including the classic - Bond, James Bond ! This game is 2 times better then Goldeneye, well rated by all critics. If you like to kill a lot of bad guys, buy it now.!! :-)

The real sequel to Goldeneye

After a rather empty few years from N64 hugly popular 'Goldeneye' comes agent 007 back for another thrilling installmant of the gripping shoot em up series.Even though 'Tommorow Never Dies ' on PSX was realesed this is the real sequel to Goldeneye. Before I describe the game the plot is quite complicated making it difficult to follow,even though this does not effect gameplay.James Bond is assigned to Bilbao,Spain to visit tight banker Lachaise a middleman in the involvement of the death of a M.I.6 agent.What follows is a classic piece of mayhem with smashed windows,river chases and rather large buzz saws! In total there are a total of 14 levels such as the Thames Chase,Masquerade and Meltdown! Quite realistic first person shooting and real bond gadgets make this a better game than Goldeneye and more action packed than ever! So why do you pick 64's version instead.With 4 more levels more action defenitly more realistic and comftable.Star off the full mark for blocked services and multiplayer modes. In this game you feel like the stunning,cunning Bond,James Bond!

Pretty neat game BUT....

Mainly it's a super neat game that's got slightly better graphics and voice recognition than Perfect Dark.BUT,I've had this game for 3 days and I'm on level 6:Night Watch.It is EXTREMELY DIFFICULT!!You can't kill a single person(if you run out of your lousy 12 darts,stun someone with your watch laser then punch someone twice-twice because they fall down and dissapear!)whitch I think is extremely lousy!Also,Electra's head bodygaurd,Gabor,walks around in a light brown dress coat and if he wants to even walk around that O-so-certian-corner that you,James Bond,may be standing at the GABOR dude sends about 5 gaurds to lock you back up in your state room.I also think Multiplayer mode could have some better stuff like better slections of guns and stuff like that.Overall, If it was a life or death situation I would suggest this wwwwwaaaaayyyyy over Perfect Dark.

Not quite like the first one!

It looked like it was going to be great, like Golden Eye. However, I guess the new designer couldn't quite pull it off. Don't get me wrong, it is still sort-of fun, it is just that the gameplay restrictions, sound, slow loading, and multiplayer game kind of stink in comparison to Golden Eye. All in all I recommend that you rent it first and try it out.

This game has got great graphics, even better than the previous bond - Goldeneye. (I loved Goldeneye that was a great game) But.....

the very detailed graphics have SLOWED DOWN the game. Compaired to goldeneye this game runs VERY SLOW. The controls are also different. The game play in this new bond compaired to the older one (goldeneye) is just terrible.

If you have to choose between the new one and goldeneye buy goldeneye. If your looking for an awsome second bond for the nintendo 64 your going to have to wait. Unless you like graphics over game control don't buy this game!

007 is back !

Bond returns in The World Is Not Enough, this game is very good for its weapons,gadjets,and game play but there is one thing missing....Multiplayer, it is very boring,and hard because the ennemies keep doing sneak attacks,I reccomend it for single player not multiplayer. EA did not do better than RARE. But it is still very good.....except for multiplayer.

EA should be ashamed

When I first turned the game on, I was impressed. After playing it for a few days, though, I got the impression that I would be trading it in shortly. No Blood??? The auto-aim on the game really comes up short, The multiplayer is embarrassing. And Load time???? When did N64 turn into a playstation? What really turns me off is the fact that after you fail a mission, it stops it. I don't know about the rest of you, but I enjoyed wiping out innocent civilians. I am really disappointed about this game. After playing an inferior game like this, I had to turn on Perfect Dark to remember what a real first-person shooter was all about. Don't waste your money on this game, I'll sell ya mine!

Addictive game; frustrating at times.

I loved this game because once you start playing it you can't stop playing it, but most of the time it can be somewhat frustrating, especially the last level. If you loved Goldeneye, then you'll definitley love this game.
