]]> 07 Mar 2007 05:54:42 The World is Not Enough features 14 single-player missions that employ a variety of different first-person shooter gameplay styles. In one level Bond is required to chase a criminal across a maze-like city while fighting off enemy thugs and avoiding civilian casualties. In another our hero finds himself swimming through an underwater submarine, advancing not only forward and backward, but up and down to as he descends deeper into the sunken structure's belly. Each scenario is not only different in design, but in overall gameplay mechanics too. For example, swimming through a sunken submarine requires a bit of strategy, as Bond will have to find well-hidden air pockets in the ship just so that he can breathe and stay alive. On the other hand, taking out enemy trash in the subway system level really only requires 007 to point, aim and shoot, disposing of thug after thug as he makes his way through the mission.

The often- delayed title was once shrugged off as vaporware, but when it finally arrived in 1997 it delivered console gamers something that only PC owners had enjoyed previously: a remarkably fun, innovative, intuitively controlled shooter complete with pretty graphics and an outstanding multiplayer mode to boot. The title went from sleeper hit to one of Nintendo 64's biggest success stories in no time, and continued to sell throughout the console's entire lifespan.
