What a let down this game is! If you liked Goldeneye for the smooth gameplay and graphics in multiplayer mode, get ready to be dissapointed. The reaction times of the controller is much slower in this mode, and the graphics don't seem that much better(if at all) to justify the slow down. A worthy sequel to one of N64's best titles this isn't. Spend your money elsewhere!!
You'd think they'd at least put blood

PUH-LEAZ! There's no blood in the entire game. AND they didn't even make the characters mouths move when they talk. How pathetic. Other then that the game is good but not better then GoldenEye.
Great Game

This game rocks! I am a diehard Golden Eye fan, and was sceptical at first. Give this one a try. The "Bad Guys" move better, and are more random than Golden Eye. There are also more of them as you increase the difficulty level. The game has a great "feel". You actually get nervous as you creep around a corner. This promises to be a game to be played over and over. The first level is not a good representation of the game. It gets MUCH better.
P.S. The game's a lot better than the movie (nothing against Pierce Bronson or 007, and hope they make another movie soon with a decent story)
bond is back in action

This game is extremely better than goldeneye. The graphics are so much better. With the expansion pack you can do so much more. You can now even play against the computer in multiplayer. There are a lot of new and realy efective weapons. If you get one game this year get The World Is Not Enough.
A Great Sequel

Unfortunately for N64 gamers we missed out on the Tommorow Never Dies game. Thankfully, however, we can get The World is not Enough! The great points about this game is that if you have the expansion pak the graphics are great and the artificial intelligence makes some formidable opponents. If you don't have the expansion pak then the graphics and the AI will be drastically lowered! Unfortunately the music is not from the movie, but Electronic Arts puts up a very impressvie musical perfromance with great beats and sometimes chilling tunes. Multiplayer rocks in TWINE because you can play it by yourself with AI Bots! Some of the bots are easy to beat, but the assasins are pretty tough! These guys are good and go for your head. The only real bad points about this game are that in multiplayer mode if you have all the AI bots (the maximum is three) or have three friends; the action REALLY slows down almost to a crawl when all of you start shooting fast-firing weapons at each other and all four of you are visible on each others screen. Another bad point is that there are no hidden single player levels! The secrets you can get are for multiplayer when you beat a single mission in a certain time. You can get extra multiplayer characters, levels, weapons, and scenarios, but again they are just for multiplayer!
The game doesn't last long. I beat the Agent difficulty in two days, and the Secret agent was easy too! The only real challenge was 00 agent. Even with 00 agent a skilled gamer can beat the game in a week or two! The game is fun, and with multiplayer mode their is infinite replay value! This is another must have game for N64 owners who don't have the Gamecube or the Game Boy Advance yet. Another plus is that you can actually see Bond load his gun! Have Fun gamers!
Bonds Back!!

I got this game for christmas this year and i compleated it on agent less than a week later, it is a fun game even though the levels are short, its not as fast as GoldenEye the graphics are just as good with a little more detail. GoldenEyes multi player was the best i have ever played (until i bought Perfect Dark)so i expected this to be good as well but no, the levels are plain and boring and the bots move around like retards. The game follows the movie more than GoldenEye witch is good but buy GoldenEye over this, Perfect Dark is better than both of then.

This game has great missions for 1 player but multiplayer is horrible... The first game has better multiplayer... There aren't as many weapons either... That what I think...
Not Even Close...

.... It doesn't even hold a candle to Golden Eye or Perfect Dark. The graphics are average and he gameplay and movement remind me of an atari game. The AI took a step back compared to the previous Bond. The interface is horrible. The multi-player vs the AI agents is laughable; the enemys is always right in front of you and it seems they kill with one shot. The missions aren't clear and to use keycards and other collected items, you have to press start and access the items from the main menu just to open a door. I hope EA made all the money they thought they would make from throwing together a Bond game. EA should stick to sports.
Disappointing

You would expect a sequel to outshine the original. This is not the case with TWINE, which is unfit to pick up Goldeneye's spent shell casings. The graphics and game play are a step backward in this otherwise compelling 007 series.

After reading all the previews about TWINE, you'd think it would be even more cool than Goldeneye or Perfect Dark, right? Wrong. TWINE is comparitively slow and boring and I don't understand how it ever got a decent review outside of pure hype. I even used a RAM expansion pack hoping it would make the game somehow play better (which it didn't aside of increasing the resolution). Anyone who has purchased TWINE knows within an hour of starting that they've been gyped into wasting their money on a second rate game. Sure, when you shoot an enemy it looks a bit more realistic, the environments and characters are all rendered better, and there are new weapons and a few other minor perks. How much difference do those things really make when this game runs slower than a slug, is totally boring, and overall just utterly annoying to play? None - perks like these may make a good game better, but they aren't enough to make a bad game great. If a game is no fun to play then why buy it? I LOVED Goldeneye and Perfect Dark which were both made by Rare. I bought it because I was duped into thinking TWINE would be even better and didn't make the smart move of renting it first. Rare is known to make awesomely realistic games as it did with those two gems. Electronic Arts made TWINE and is known for making good sports games - looks like they should stick with making what they're good at.
