[@pocketcam5067]

one of my fav gb games, i beat it on a family trip when it first came out. it took me way longer than 4 hrs lol

[@Bobo0451]

For once you found a game I didn't know existed thank you for expanding knowledge of video game history. Ever game not known it's like a painting not seen. Or at least I hope that makes sense

[@whoisthis01]

007 games are generally great.

[@jbobruleful]

This is an incomplete review if you have not played it with a super Gameboy. The SNES add on

[@oriolgonzalez9328]

It's like they thought to themselves "if we have to make a licensed game for a regular GameBoy, it's going to be the best goddamn licensed game any GameBoy has seen!"

[@primeradagon1306]

"espada 1 to espada 2, its time to stop the demon lord"

[@nobodyinparticular9640]

Either that, or they were making their own original game before being contracted in making a 007 game, so they just changed a few things up and stuff like that.

[@pentelegomenon1175]

@@nobodyinparticular9640 This game seems like it would make much more sense if it was about Get Smart, maybe they were making a Get Smart game but somehow it was easier for them to get a Bond license.

This game looks like a weird mix between GBC Zelda and Metal Gear: Ghost Babel, and that's awesome.

[@Evilriku13]

I do wish the spritework would be more.. clean? Otherwise it's solid!

[@Cooe.]

... GB Zelda. Link's Awakening was originally developed for the OG GameBoy, NOT the Color. Link's Awakening DX on GBC was NOT the original version of the game (though it IS the best).

I definitely need to play this one, it looks so fascinating. Also, hearing that description of Bond as a cold killing machine following orders from base makes me even more excited for the IOI Bond game.

Connery really desensitized people to that character depth but the Fleming books had a lot of that.

I remember one of my classmates having this game. He showed it to me and we played some. Both of us were too young to understand English so we didn't get far at all but I've always kept the game in my memory considering how different it was.

[@ganesh2levrai]

it's incredible to think that this game may have been buried under our firsts impressions of Bond Games, saying "nah, i'll pass this one" There's a bomberman game which plays like a links awakening that you should try

[@elbalalaw1781]

Mdr je pensais pas te trouver ici ,les grands esprits se rencontrent je suppose

Bomberman Quest? I remember wanting to get a game like that but inadvertently bought one that played like traditional bomberman, it had him in a little indiana jones outfit on the cover.

[@TheModernGafa]

@@eatsandwichesonthursdays420 Bomberman Tournament. Sounds generic but it's a adventure RPG. Even has collectable monsters you can battle with.

[@SteveBrandon]

"t's incredible to think that this game may have been buried under our firsts impressions of Bond Games, saying "nah, i'll pass this one"" If I had owned an original Gameboy at the time, I would have skipped it for that reason. I'm sure I must have seen the box at some point and thought that it was a down-port of that subpar James Bond 007 game that showed up on the Sega Genesis that was just a mediocre platformer that only had four levels if I remember correctly.

[@onceuponatimeonearth]

This was my most played game on gameboy next to pokemon red and wario land. I beat it numerous times and it's still amazing to this day imo. The humour and extremely detailed animated sprites, the open world freedom, the music, and having a modern day non fantasy rpg is, to this day, extremely rare.

I had Yu-Gi-Oh: Reshiram of Destruction which was pretty good, but a lot of bad licensed games too (High school Musical which was a platformer.)

[@icantaim4sht836]

I like how self aware this game is. At one point you're told to find Q in a lab, and everyone you talk to along the way to him replies, "I'm not Q". Like they knew the graphics were kinda crap so you couldn't tell who was who.

Does anyone else find it odd that Brosnan was one of the shorter lived Bonds, yet he is the Bond for nearly every 007 game?

[@cashnelson2306]

no? He was the current bond during the rise of licensed video games lol

[@zaneseibert]

Connery, Lazenby, Moore, and Dalton were before video games really took off and Craig was after dev time started to get too long for games to be made as cheap cash-ins. Honestly I think it's weirder that there are so many GOOD 007 games compared to most licenses.

[@abdelali9279]

Not only a licensed game, but an odd portable experience that does more than you could expect from it this is like the old videos. BTW, a real adventure game that adds to the action, a MI6 operative disguised as a Yeti in the himalayas and the way Bond tosses that diamond in the air after he "gets" it from the head of the brothel, it could be just a monochrome 8-bit rendition of bond but I could see in that gesture Roger Moore's smug smile, the bar is setup high now to IOI and their Bond game. I have also found the secret Tony Hawk in the thumbnail.

Haven’t played this since I beat it on emulator in middle school. Kinda shocks me we didn’t get another MI6 or Q lab section again until FRWL (which was another shooter-centric Bond game). The war zone with the crows eating corpses shocked me so much back then, something like that happening so rarely in Bond films, I honestly commend them for not holding back. The story feels so 80s Bond, mainly Octopussy, makes me wanna replay it so bad I love the vibe it gives.

[@Clubbythaseal]

I loved this game as a little kid. Played it so much but somehow never finished it. I just kept redoing the the first half and finding all the hidden stuff. One of the my least favorite parts of the game was the desert which you have to explore to get to some hidden location. It sucked to go through the desert without a map as it was huge and easy to die in. What I found out after a few plays was that you can find a hidden guy in a previous map that would sell/give you a gps/map thing. Made the desert completely trivial with the gadget. Being able to figure it all out as a 6 year old was one of my best gaming experiences growing up.
