The opening scene is enough to warm up any Bond fanatic, with a montage of some of Bond's finest moments in his fantastic automobiles. Unfortunately this doesn't seem to follow through into the game. The graphics look like very early Playstation rendering, and offer very little by modern standards. The inter-level cinematics are a little more exciting, but only serve to dress down the gameplay.
Control of the car is very simple, but it does seem fairly unresponsive compared to other driving games such as Driver. You can cycle through the weapons you collect to fight the foes you meet on your mission. The missiles will lock onto targets and the weapons are satisfyingly powerful. At the same time, you have to play hard to succeed; make no mistake, 007 Racing is no walk in the park.
The two-player mode pitches you against your friends in car-based stand-offs. Being split-screen makes the graphic very poor and they do not offer anything new. Overall, the game does not really do justice to the Bond sensation. If you are looking for a driving challenge, Driver would be a much safer bet. --Chris Hall

5.0 out of 5 stars
This is a Great Game!,
By A Customer
This review is from: James Bond: 007 Racing (Video Game)
I have just bought 007 Racing for my kids at Christmas, and I can honestly say that it is a true 5 star product. You get all the Bond cars, all of the Bond weapons on the cars, and the Bond girls as well! It's introduced by a stunning movie, and we all love it in our household. If you want the definitive Bond product, take this game out for a spin...

= Fun:3.0 out of 5 stars
This review is from: James Bond: 007 Racing (Video Game)
007 Racing is a bit a waste of time really. The graphics are ok but the dimensions are all wrong. The opening movie is good but lets face it this is supposed to be a game not a movie. And the problem is that the game is just another glorified Racing Game. The fact that it is dressed up as James Bond doesn't disguise the fact that it has all been done before and better. The cars are frustratingly sensitive and handling of the cars movement is unstable. Also I found it hard to get much momentum because there is too much to slow the car down. Basically don't bother with this game.

Great game,
By A Customer
This review is from: James Bond: 007 Racing (Video Game)
This is a great game. It has superb graphics, and the missions are challenging but also good fun. The weapon variety is good, and the cars are billiant, especially the BMWs. The only bad thing about it, is that sometimes the 'proportions' seem to be wrong - a forklift truck can go at the same speed as your Aston Martin DB5! But I would reccommend this game to anyone.
