People have been asking me about the absence of a Q&A section in this video. I'm a horribly organized individual so after pulling an all-nighter making this, I tried to make the Q&A but my voice had died out completely along with a pounding headache. It sucks and I'm not pleased about it myself, but if I didn't have the ability to create a fun Q&A in that moment, I'd rather spare my viewers. That you'd watch to said credits is great though, and hopefully the video engaged you throughout. For next time, there's no concern. The Q&A will be back...

Also, you can update older engines, even if you use the source code. Some of the graphics enhancements you see in Nightfire were actually available in regular Quake 3 mods that only had access to the client and server-side game logic, and not the actual engine code. But if you licensed idtech3, you can just pop into the tr_ code and replace vertex animation with bone-based models, or even include the bullet3 physics library, and use that for changing the baked lighting model to a physics-based lighting model like that one guy did with the Quake 2 path-tracing mod. It's the same engine, but enhanced. I made basic mods for Q3 like ironsights and freeaim (in my channel), but hope to make the engine look way nicer in the future. Q3 engine is way nicer looking than it ever gets credit for, particularly because id's games back in the day were demos for what could be done, so they could be licensed.

It's a shame he didn't mention it once, it's one of the most iconic I've ever heard in games ever. It fits right in as a "James Bond music", and everytime I hear the first few seconds, I get a swarm of my memories of playing the game. I had this game for both Xbox and PS2, and still have it, and would still play it on my 360 if the CD wasn't as damaged as it is...

Hell yeah, Esthero’s theme for this game was phenomenal. I can’t recommend enough that you check out her first album if you liked it - her first (Breath From Another) is very trip hop-acid jazz like the Nightfire theme. Very lounge-y, and sultry. It’s a fucking album, to cut to the chase. Literally. I also love her second (Wikkid Lil Girls), which sees her depart from the first album’s co-conspirator and explore a lot of different genres. Check out Esthero on Spotify maybe and see what you think!

I played it in the PC too, I heard there was a different version between PC and consoles since that's something that happened for a few games back in the day... I just didn't knew how far different they were. From what I've seen from this video I can say the multiplayer from the PC version is a lot more single player friendly, I remember you could have fairly large teams(8v8 I think) and the game modes were really nice too. Now I need to find out how different the multiplayer is to see if the PC version is truly the worse version like the video says... Because from my memory, the PC multiplayer portion seems to display more content than shown on this video.

The thing I enjoyed about this game the most--this was something also present in the third-person follow-up, Everything or Nothing--was that this game rewarded you for tackling obstacles like James Bond would. You can approach certain levels in a variety of ways, but players who were paying attention to their environment and exploited it accordingly were rewarded handsomely with a golden 007 trophy and the iconic Bond theme. It made the player feel triumphant, and encouraged repeated playthroughs of other levels in order to find the "best" way to navigate them. This and EoN are underrated in a fashion. Sure, both games sold well and reviewed well upon release, but they have become forgotten and neglected in time. This is a real bummer, because these games anticipated trends (e.g. cover-based shooting, trophies/achievements, etc.) that would not become the status quo until the following console generation. Add to that their obvious devotion to the source material and high production values, you got a pair of licensed games that are not just good for being licensed games, but are just plain good. They have aged better than they have any right to, and any gamer interested in the historical development of action titles owes it to themselves to give these games another spin.

The end makes me sad, a a 6 year old, the PC port gave me so many happy memories, I loved every mission, the weapons and gadgets were phenomenal, when playing SP I even drew an upside-down triangle with three bullets as a 'calling card'. The bots were incredibly fun to play as, the AWP felt beautiful to use, a bit like the Counter-Strike one. I didn't care about the story (cause my PC couldn't run the cutscenes.). The stealth was really fun to sneak around in and the space missions were really nice to mix it up for the endgame. This game might be why I love Half-Life (And Valve games) so much, this game got me used to GoldSrc without even knowing it. Despite what a lot of people say about the PC version, I had genuine fun on it and I look back on that game with fond memories, a time when everything was simpler. Boy I love that game.

Your experience with Nightfire sounds pretty much the same as mine with Goldeneye. Kids are really bad about teaching their friends to play games. I love Nightfire, and I even liked Agent Under Fire well enough. Most of that is probably the multiplayer modes, but I even liked the GameBoyAdvance version of Nightfire. I'm still of the opinion that the best James Bond game is TWINE on the N64.

TWINE PS1 is basically Tomorrow Never Dies' presentation converted into a FIRST person shooter instead of a Third. The style of the health/armor bar is the same, the textures and models seem identical in style, it has clips of the movie between missions, and *a lot of the music got re-used in Agent Under Fire* as a result of the game originally being a PS2 version of TWINE.

One of my fav's from the gamecube era. Still have it and me and my friends would play multiplayer a lot. I felt it was a great successor to goldeneye for N64. The fact it wasn't based of a movie made it even better cause you didn't have to try and compare it. So many fun little gadgets, and weapons. When we first found out you could use odd jobs hat in multiplayer, and as many times as you wanted was awesome. Then finding out you could use mini tanks and helicopters was also really fun. There was also the detail of being able to control rockets and getting a front row seat to seeing your enemy blow up was amazing at the time. They took the 007 license and ran with it and we got a great game out of it. The single player did have it's problems like what you mentioned in the video but when I compare it to a lot of FPS games these days it still seems better. The single player had some really fun levels like the business tower either trying to take the stealth route or just going in guns blazing. Later on when 007 from russia with love was teased and they were showing they got Sean Connery to do the voice lines, and all that. Looked like it was gonna be great cause well you know it came after 007 Nightfire so it had to be just as good if not better. I don't remember it so well these days though I still have the same sitting around here somewhere. That's a bit of a shame. There is also Goldeneye rouge agent which I know got a lot of hate but it was fun playing as a different character in that universe and it not following a movie again. It had it's problems but it had some pretty fun guns and gadgets. Then much later down the line they released a "goldeneye" remake with Daniel Craig which I got (cause I was kinda suckered into the hype) and it didn't really do much for me. Was hoping to capture the greatness of the original one for N64. Really sucks you don't see anymore good James Bond games anymore these days. :(

Never clicked a video so fast. I never had a PS2 but my uncles did so I got to play some of their games when I went to my grad parents and my E for Everyone parents weren't watching voer me. That's was my introduction to Mortal Kombat, Madden.... and James Bond. They had Nightfire. I used to be too scared to play past the first 2 levels so I just played those on loop for hours, the game introduced me to the James Bond franchise as well as first-person shooters. Nightfire is my favorite 007 game and this video was the purest rush of nostalgia I have ever experienced.

We did play Agent Under Fire quite a bit on console, another great one (atleast at the time) And at the end of the video, I got so nostalgic from the music.
