Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
Who'd have thought that the exploits of a secret agent could be so underwhelming? Agent Under Fire isn't exactly boring--in fact, the first time you play you're sure to be impressed by the suave looks and immaculate presentation. But it soon becomes clear that this is no sophisticated vintage Bond homage; it's a fleetingly entertaining blast that just happens to feature a famous British secret agent. Which isn't to say that there aren't enjoyable elements here. There're a couple of Crazy Taxi-influenced levels that work well, as well as some mildly diverting "on-rails" shooter stages. At heart, though, like N64 masterpiece GoldenEye, this is a first-person shooter and one that suffers badly in comparison with that game.

At heart, though, like N64 masterpiece GoldenEye, this is a first-person shooter and one that suffers badly in comparison with that game.
There are clever gadgets to amuse yourself with, as well as frequent set pieces in the form of "Bond moves" that will delight the casual fan. But more experienced players will find the lack of depth here distressing. The real problem, though, is the "intelligence" of the enemies. These are the dumbest bad guys you'll ever encounter in a video game. Coupled with the unerring accuracy of your auto aim, you could complete much of the game blindfolded. Consequently, it's difficult to feel much satisfaction, even upon saving the world. The developers have at least made an effort with different styles of play and a decent multiplayer mode, but Agent Under Fire is (at best) a good-ish game in a genre full of great alternatives. Be careful with your next Bond license, Mr EA--it may be your last. --Steve Colton
Product Description
In James Bond: Agent Under Fire the player must defeat the evil criminal mastermind Malprave, head of a rising terrorist organisation that is bent on ruling the world with an army of clones. Helping players along the way Agent Under Fire is Zoe Nightshade and a cast of familiar characters. Each of the more than 10 exotic locations around the world contains a generous offering of challenging, well-balanced missions and objectives.
Agent Under Fire lets players accomplish mission objectives by blasting through with high-tech weaponry, or by relying on state-of-the-art gadgets and nerve-tingling stealth. The driving levels feature an array of 007-inspired exotic cars and automotive combat from the Bond movies. Other key features include the all-new story line that builds on the Bond legacy with villains and allies, both new and familiar; three well-balanced gameplay style experiences for the single player (action, stealth and driving); a full arsenal of Q-lab weapons, gadgets and autos; and fluid action inspired by the 007 films.
There are also enormous, detailed, 3-D environments to be experienced through the eyes of Bond. Agent Under Fire will utilise next-generation console technology to help bring life full environmental physics and detailed 3-D environments, such as a massive deep-sea oil rig set atop a secret underwater base. Includes single and multiplayer modes (support for up to four players).
