007 Legends is hitting stores today, and it's clear that the PS3 version of the game is the one to get. Given Sony's ownership of the 007 IP, it's managed to wrangle early access to the Skyfall DLC mission, and some exclusive multiplayer characters.
You didn't think Activision would be silly enough to forget a Sean Connery-era movie in its Bond mashup game, 007 Legends? Today, the publisher has revealed the last movie to be represented in the upcoming FPS: Goldfinger.
That means the upcoming game somehow mashes the stories of On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, Moonraker, License to Kill, Die Another Day, and the upcoming Skyfall. Why, as One of Swords points out, that means a single movie from every Bond actor will be represented! (Although Daniel Craig will play Bond throughout the entire adventure.)
James Bond's merry adventures in Die Another Day and Licence to Kill will appear in the movie-spanning FPS 007 Legends, publisher Activision announced today. Those are the Timothy Dalton film with the scuba diving and the Pierce Brosnan one with Halle Berry and all that ice, if you're slack on your Bond.
Agent 007 is known for being a snappy dresser, with various tuxes that inevitably become grazed by bullets. Activision Blizzard announced today that in 007 Legends, two retailer-exclusive pre-order bonuses will let you don the dapper James Bond suit or imitate one of his less attractive enemies.
007 Legends seems like it could just as easily be called "James Bond 101." The game is covering a wide swath of the Bond canon, for you kids who only know of the recent films in the decades-old franchise. And to that end, Activision has announced a few more pieces of the legacy to lend it authenticity.
On Her Majesty's Secret Service has been revealed as the second film James Bond will face-shoot his way through in Eurocom's multi-movie merry romp 007 Legends. You remember, the one in the snow with the skiing bit with guns.
James Bond's film-hopping adventure is coming in mid-October, as revealed in a double-duty trailer for the upcoming film Skyfall. After the movie footage ends, the trailer features an extended look at 007 Legends, with a release date of October 16, 2012.
With a new Bond, James Bond movie on the horizon, there's naturally another video game tie-in coming too. This time, GoldenEye 007: Reloaded developer Eurocom is ambitiously tying the plots of six Bond movies together to create 007 Legends for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.
