MOH Rising Sun! Fine pickup. I didn't know it came in a Player's Choice version! I've got the Player's Choice of MOH Frontline. It was pretty good too, you don't see too many FPS in the Pacific Theater.

The 007 game is supposed to be FPS right? I didn't hear good reviews about it, however.

I know, right? Now my only concern regarding the 360 games is that I don't have a system to play them on yet :lol:

I don't think I have either, but metacritic has it at 80 out of 100, so it can't be to-to bad (I guess). I think the most common complaint I've read so far is that it's too short (about 7-8 hours).

It was developed by Eurocom, the same company that developed the acclaimed Goldeneye remake(?). I have a copy, but I have not spent much time with it, however.

Maybe it's a different one I'm thinking of? There were, what, 5 different 007 games released on the Gamecube?

I completely missed out on that generation of console games, so once you get past Goldeneye I get confused :lol:

I know of 3. Let's see what we got.

007 Nightfire (2002) (FPS)
007 Agent Under Fire (2002) (FPS)
007 Everything or Nothing (2004) (Third-person shooter)
Goldeneye Rogue Agent (2004) (FPS) (developed by EA LA, who did MOH games)
007 From Russia With Love (2006) (FPS) (with Sean Connery voiceover for 007 (!))

Wow. Maybe these games are worth looking into. I'm running out of GC FPSes!

Yup. Before last night I was only vaguely familiar with Nightfire, Rouge Agent, and From Russia with Love. I can almost swear that I heard that one of those "007" games was to be avoided. Looking at all of them at once, I wanna say it was Rouge Agent, buy not having played them, I can't be sure. Nightfire seems pretty okay so far though.

Just a heads up, Everything or Nothing and From Russia with Love are both very good.
