James Bond 007: The Duel
Go watch The Living Daylights insteadGenre: action - gun
Publisher: Tengen
Year: 1993
System: Genesis
Gameplay Score: 1
Gameplay Notes:
Tank controls. Turning, jumping, and ducking are an absolute chore. Infinitely spawning enemies. 30% draw distance. Unlimited ammo but randomly and infrequently you reload. No idea what causes it. Enemies fire when they see you and don't stop. No i-frames so they can destroy you quickly. Short jump and no way to move during jump. Terrible controls. Extreme knockback. Throws you across the screen. Fall damage.
Level Design Score: 2
Level Design Notes:
Ok designs but level objectives are to find all hostages, then an item, and get to the exit. Sigh Lots and lots of ladders with terrible hit detection.
Theme Score: 2
Theme Notes:
It's James Bond! But there's NO cutscenes, level intros, or any other story. There's not much Bond about this game.
Art Style Score: 2
Art Style Notes:
Tiny sprites that animate well. The background are interesting. Nothing terribly great. No effects or anything really happening.
Audio Score: 2
Audio Notes:
Some well written songs that just aren't good. First level is especially obnoxious. Just a loud beat. Sounds are bizarre. Jumping and landing sound like crashing on a drum.
Overall Score: 30
