Why can't Activision do the Bond series justice and give a game some decent fucking graphics for once.
I had not seen that Skyfall trailer until just now. Damn. I can't freaking wait for it. Granted, I couldn't wait for it ever since Quantum of Solace. I love 007.
As for 007 Legends, I'm... interested. I've only seen parts of Moonraker, and I agree. What I saw was kinda goofy. The movie I'd like to see in it is still my favorite one to date: Goldfinger. I don't think it'd make the transition to video game form well since it's not very action heavy, but I freaking love that movie.

That's... Kind of fucked up that Moore is being replaced in his own movie tie in. I like Craige, but come on.

Probably has to do with licenses and likeness rights and all the bullshit that comes with copyrights. It also could just simply be Roger Moore himself, but who knows, there's just tons of red tape and expenses involved with stuff like that.
I'm with Swishiee on this. Didn't know about the trailer, and I knew the movie was in development hell because of the license and other bullshit. I was worried Craig would be like Dalton and then be replaced before the next movie was made.

The graphics are so bad that I assumed it was a Wii game at first. The texture quality and model animation are N64 quality. I can't believe this is a game for 360/PS3/PC. The video isn't HD, though, maybe I'm missing something...?
The only thing that even looked bad was Jaws, the rest just looks like Goldeneye: Reloaded which is fine by me, that game wasn't even bad.
Looks fun, and I'm always up for more Bond, but it seems to bear little resemblance to the film (let alone the book, of course).
I suppose if it's first person it doesn't matter, but it'd be nice to play as Roger Moore's Bond too, at leats for the mission(s) that is based on his film. Throw some one-liners, incapacitate guards with one punch, have the craziest gadgets and the best suits.

Moonraker? Seriously?
You know the book actually was much better. Adapting that into a game would be difficult though.

@Jinx
Maybe you should try looking at a N64 game before saying stuff like that.
@jc83
I hate the Moonraker movie, but yes, the book is great, this game is celebrating the 50 years of Bond movies though, so any book would be weird to put in there.

I hope they do 'Oh Her Majesty's Secret Service' It's not a bad story, just George Lazenby is a bit crap in it.
The graphics look sub-par but, this is a reveal trailer, no doubt the game will be tarted up closer to launch. My only real trepidation about this game is that it's yet another James Bond first person bloody shooter! I know the series of games is known for its shooting ever since Goldeneye did it, but Bizarre did a sort of adventure/action/driving game with Bloodstone which, if nothing else, proved that Bond works about 200% better in <i>third</i> person, not <i>first</i>.
I know expecting a plethora of variety from a AAA action game is like asking the tide to turn back in, but come on guys, you can at least try to give it the breadth of an actual Bond film. Taking the gun barrel out of the player's face would be a good first step towards this. ...oh well.

Well, I did say Moonraker was also likely, soooo, yeah. PLEASE DO GOLDFINGER. I CAN NEVER HAVE MY FILL OF ODDJOB.
Anyways, game looks good, but I'm a Bond fanboy, so any 007 that isn't James Bond Jr. or the one where Woody Allen eats a bomb and kills everyone will be fine my me.

@Krooner
Other way around. Lazenby was fine, but the script calls for Bond to do some dumb stuff. Stealing Playboy and dropping his sporran wasn't going to make any actor look good.
Funny how it's the most overlooked Bond film actually, considering it's arguably the most important to the character's development.

Are people actually complaining about graphics? wow...., With that said it looks like Call Of Duty with a Bond skin slapped on it..I think that is the problem with alternate FPS games besides CoD under Activision's wing. They need to try and get that CoD personality away from their other FPSs so they can try and be a little unique....CoD is CoD, Bond is another series that deserves better respect. Maybe i'm being a little pessimistic though, I apologize for that.
@AceFibble
I found him a little bland, but always enjoyed the film. Sure it's a bit campy and OTT but they all were weren't they?
If they're tweaking the storylines as the did with Goldeneye to bring them up to date a bit more, then I think OHMSS could really sing. Maybe up the gadget quota a bit.

I assume this is being published in order for Activision to retain use of the 007 license, as with the annual Spider-man game? Why not go with a Skyfall tie-in then? MGM refused the developers the access they would need?
@Nevi
Skyfall will be one of the six films represented in the game. The reason they're doing multiple Bond films is because the game is releasing in conjunction with the 50th anniversary of the Bond films.
@Andy of Comix Inc
When EA had the franchise that's totally the direction they were going in. You should check out Everything or Nothing. I was sad that Bloodstone was sub-par because it meant Activision was going to veer away from third person which is really the way Bond should be played.

If I'm paying $50+ dollars for a game, I expect it too look really good. And in retrospect I'm thinking the low quality of the video might be turning more subtle textures into muddy one-color surfaces. I found an "HD" version, but I swear it's just the low-res one blown up. Suppose we'll see.
And I really do want this to be good. I'm just pretty skeptical at this point.
