    Update 11.19.2020: It's confirmed!!! New 007 game has finally been announced! Created by IOInteractive, and simply called "007 Project." Get hyped!!!
    RIP Sean Connery.
    Update: Had to completely cut out the awesome intro sequence I created for this video, along with the beautiful animation Syfydan created for me. But I shall hold on to the original version of the video myself :)

    Thanks for tuning in everybody! This project took an insane amount of time and effort to pull together. I actually intended to make this last February but wanted to really dive deep in the franchise by going through each and every film as well. This was a lot of fun to make - and I really hope a developer takes interest in this franchise again. The final section of this particular video includes a breakdown of what I feel would make for a great 007 game, and I would love to hear your ideas of what you feel would be the right step.
    Also - from the poll I conducted a few weeks back, the winner was predictably "GoldenEye 1997," with Nightfire and Everything or Nothing coming in at 2nd and 3rd from waaay behind. Expected a bit more of an even split - but that just goes to show how insanely important GoldenEye was to the gaming industry. After watching this, does your opinion still stand, or is there another game in the series you're interested in trying out? Let me know!

    Hitman 2 engine would be perfect for Bond. Replace 47 with Bond, you can do the entire history of Bond, although stages would take awhile to make considering how meticulous IOI is.

      At the end of the day, James Bond is both an agent of espionage as well as an assassin, as they mention multiple times in the books and films. Both of these aspects can be incorporated into a hitman game. Shoot 'em ups are awesome and Goldeneye was a masterpiece that raised the bar for that particular genre, but if they wanted a game that followed a slower pace of the movies that could be matched to the odd shoot out, Hitman is indeed an excellent template.

      yeah i considered that - but idk how the sandbox environments would transfer to the 007 experience. I was thinking Rocksteady could do a great 007 game. The Batman Arkham games are fantastic and I can see them reworking their design to function with 3rd person shooting mechanics instead (or even first person)
      A semi-open world like an Arkham Game, combined with 3rd person shooting mechanics like the ones in Max Payne 3 would be amazing (minus the slow motion diving)
      Edit: Well - sandbox style 007 it is! IO Interactive confirmed!!! Probably a much better choice :)

      It's awful when compared to Goldeneye 007. Just compare the feel and the weight of shooting in Goldeneye 007, as well as the animations of the characters. TWINE feels so empty in comparison. It was just ok.

      @@liquidgeorgeI agree in all honesty with your points. But TWINE wasn't awful or empty far from it, people complained about it being too scripted yet they act like Goldeneye's levels aren't confusing and make you have to play a single level 5 times trough trial and error. Twine literally did what goldeneye did and more, people just look at it trough rose tinted glasses and don't see the fact that it has falws. Alot of Goldeneye levels that were more open were just walking sims, they were a nice change of pace but not much more. Not saying TWINE is perfect, far from it it has some pretty crappy sound design, the gunplay is quite basic but it's still objectivley better than Goldeneye.

    The problem with most Bond games, is that you mostly shoot your way out instead of expanding their potential like spying on key people, having conversations that could lead somewhere story & character wise, investigating & retrieving classified information, or classic infiltration.
    You can have your shootouts, but the series should mix that and the more espionage stuff together. Bond's a spy, not a soldier.

      @@Nick930 Don't get me wrong, Everything or Nothing's my fav Bond game. And I enjoyed GoldenEye, Nightfire, and... 2 and a half of his films. But if there was a new game on the horizon, it should follow it's own path similar to the Batman Arkham series and Spider-Man PS4 and be as fairly faithful to the source material. You can have elements from the films & books, but it's best to be a new interpretation of Bond inspired from them.

    So I finally finished the video and as always great job! If they ever made a future game a more open ended level based game would be the best similar to the Splinter Cell series and Hitman. With each level taking place in different parts of world and exotic locations. Also Alpha Protocol has been the closest we’ve gotten to a good non bond game with this concept in mind.

    I think if you made a hybrid of the new Hitmans sandbox stealth micro worlds mixed with Jedi: Fallen orders condensed exploration, there would be a great Bond game there MI6 would act as a frequently visited hub to talk to characters like M and Moneypenny to get missions and side objectives, gain intel on environments ect. and Q branch can double as an upgrade menu and a practice arena for gunplay and vehicle courses.

    If they ever do make another 007 game I want it to be like Everything or Nothing (which is one of my favourite PS2 games). Original story, 3rd person, stealth, hand to hand combat, less shooting, less gadgets (maybe), noticeable villains, Easter eggs & memorable gameplay.

    It is time to step away from Bond being a FPS/Multiplayer game. A open world shooter with a focus on story and progression. Something like a GTA open world area that you explore and progress a story, and based on your success and decision can impact the ending. Doesn't need to follow a film, but lots of additional books and materials to build off of.

    I feel the best way to proceed with James Bond would be with more focus on stealth, a reinvention of the franchise's game identity with a much heavier focus on espionage spywork with the big action set pieces being saved for important moments rather than just being constant and repetitive
    Something more like with the social stealth of Hitman or Assassin's Creed, with the action set pieces of Metal Gear.
    If future installments are meant to directly tie into future movies then a third person perspective with the next Bond is a Must, but if it leans more into doing its own thing or even drawing on the original books rather than being directly linked to future movies then perhaps a Bond design that doesn't evoke any particular actor and a first person perspective would work.

A developer should also look at Alpha Protocol or Deus Ex (HR) for inspiration because the conversationwheel in those games are just great! Imagine different choices that can influence relationships and shape the outcome of a mission and story...Maybe add rpg-light elements to customize your own bond: suave/stealth/melee/driving/investigatory skills.
