Amazon.co.uk Review
Expectations ran high for this game, due to its exciting, eponymous movie and the exceptional Nintendo 64 James Bond game GoldenEye 007. And while this game presents the variety and intrigue one would expect from the beloved licensed-to-kill, martini-sippin' spy, it would have benefited from a bit more polishing. Don't expect this game to be on par with the games and movies that preceded it. In fact, if you are looking for a GoldenEye-like experience for the PlayStation, you'd be much better off with the WWII period piece, Medal of Honour.

Tomorrow Never Diesuses an auto target mode, but it's far too restrictive to be of use here, requiring players to stand still in order to keep the target locked. The game loyally follows the film, but when the action intensifies--such as a hot pursuit on skis, or flying a nuclear warhead-laden jet out of a hot zone--players are forced to either relinquish control entirely or have minimal input.

Gadgets from Bond's old pal Q are too sparsely used, and the absence of any multiplayer mode seals this game's fate as a small diversion rather than a stellar accomplishment. --Jeff Young

Pales in comparison to it's predaccessor (CONTAINS SPOILERS)
I admit GoldenEye was done for the much more powerful N64 but the Playstation was capable of some great games like Metal Gear Solid. In some ways it's like Metal Gear in the way you are working for the government against international villains (of course) and are thus advised to use stealth as much as possible. Theres also some nice women and gadgets too.

That's about as much this game has in common with Metal Gear though sadly game-play wise. Graphics are appalling at times whilst mediocre at others, there are graphical bugs galore and the A.I. is pathetically poor. Some bad guys blow themselves up when they should be aiming at you! Controlling bonds car in one level isn't great either and it looks like a shoe box but then maybe I'm being picky as it's PSone. Still the game is poor with bad guys still running around in circles (something that happened in GoldenEye N64, 18 months approx prior to Metal Gear and that didn't happen in Metal Gear as such.) Some of the characters don't even look like their counterparts (most notable with henchmman Stamper) in the film and Paris survives!

Only buy this if you are a true Bond fan and want to get it for the sake of adding it to the shelf.

Anyone noticed this game can't be completed?
I bought this game a couple of years back before it went ot Platinum and thought that on the whole it was a good game (not as good as Goldeneye however). I would have given this game maybe 3 or 4 stars, but there are some pretty major bugs with the game that stop you from actually completing some levels, suchas, not being able to open the safe door to get the encoder out, bits like that. It's only saving grace is having a cheat to complete a level for you, so in effect, you can skip the buggy bits of the game. Shame too that it doesn't have the original actors voices. This game could have so easily been a classic if they'd given it a bit more thought, and tried playing it before they put it on the market!
