Who ever doesn't have this game you have to get it! The graphics are so cool and the sound on dolby digital surround sound is AWSOME! Even without surround sound the sound is still cool. It has 12 levels/missions. It also has new gadgets and here they are: Q-Jet, Q-Claw, Q-Laser, Q-descripter. There are other ones but you will have to find out while you are playing the game. ... It has some new guns. If you are a James Bond fan you have to get this game!!!

Great, but not as perfect as Goldeneye

That game is ereally cool. The graphics are amazing, and the textures may be a little cheesy for the skins on their face (or on Malprave's bouncing b...), but they are really nice 10/10 for that.
The voice acting is excellent, with R being a old reminder of the old Q, the nice old man who gave Bond stuff to (hurt) people with.
10/10 for that too. The music and sound effects are a little underrated, compared to the voice casting. 8/10 for those.
The controls, as usual with a Bond game, are really tight. They are easy to access, althought using the cross pad for weapons and gadgets is a little flaw. 9/10 The story, is as with any Bond game true to its cause, good, but you will find the same old formula:
1.people die.
2.You go in for info.
3.You meet the bad girl
4.You meet the good girl (from whom you are probably gettign nooky from at the end.)
5.You save the world, and get the girl. (nooky!)
Same old same old. 7/10
The single player is good, but the only thing that saves this game from ahaving a zero replay value is the multiplayer, which will make you play with your friends, and replay the single player so you can get the awards for it. Gameplay: 9 Replay value: 6
Last thing: the booklet. A game's quality is often partly relected by its instruction booklet. In this game he booklet is good, and cmpprhensive, although a little bit of color would havebeen nice, and some input about how to get the awards. 8/10
Overall, this is not an average: 8/10 (4/5 stars.)

I'm still waiting for Nightfire.

cool shooting game!

Cant wait for more!!!

Rating based on 5 hours of gameplay...

I have found that this game is very hard to control with using all of the buttons on the GC Gamepad. Every single one of the joysticks, d-pad, and buttons are used on this game and boy does it get IRRITATING and FRUSTRATING!!! For the first 2 hours, I spend most of the time learning the controls. On the final three hours, that's where the gameplay actually started. The graphics are incredible clean, but where's the realism? I have never seen a game without blood [making the game realistic]. I believe that they could have spend another month or so to make this game more realistic.

Game Play: 4.5
Graphics: 5
Story: 4
Controls: 3
Overall: 4.125

Put it in a can, the multiplayer blows.

What can I say? This game looks great, absolutely great. But I'm afraid there is just one problem, and it deals with actual gameplay. THE CONTROLS ARE RIDICULOUSLY AWKWARD! While there are four whole different controller configurations for Gamecube's Agent Under Fire, all of them are completely useless. There are just too many times (mostly while driving), when I need to push several buttons at once while watching about three different gauges. This task is darn near impossible with any of the controller configuration. I just don't see why these game companies always have to make their game controls 'unique' in some way. Just use the big green button for standard attack and the smaller red button to open doors and what not. Make it simple! Bytheway, if you think this game's multiplayer mode will "touch" you the same way Goldeneye did, think again! Agent Under Fire's multiplayer mode places your chosen Bond character in a little 007 [heck], where every gun is wildly inaccurate (even while using the inconvenient aiming feature) and life expectantcy is about four or five seconds. Any time you start a face-to-face showdown with someone, you have absolutely no way of predicting the outcome. You may be bearing down on me with your M-16 ripoff and full body armour, but I will somehow bring you down with one shot of my pistol, all while on my last unit of life. This game tries to make combat so realistic, that it's not fun anymore. Oh, and please don't get me started on the Q-claw. It essentially turns your character into Spiderman, but my words can't begin to describe the hilarity of it; just see it for yourself. To sum up Agent Under Fire in one sentence: The makers of this game took all the great elements of Goldeneye, Perfect Dark, Spiderman 64, Zelda 64, and a little Conker's Bad Fur Day, put it all in a blender, and threw the whole damn thing off a bridge. Sorry, Bond fans.

KICK...uh...BUTT GAME!

I was extremely excited when I heard about this game because there were no fps's for Gamecube and my favorite game for n64 was Goldeneye. I was kinda dissapointed when I heard it was from EA, but they did not dissapoint, in fact, it went above and beyond my standards. Best mulitplayer I, personally have ever seen, better than You don't know Jack, SSB, and the likes of GoldenEye. I think that this game is the best game for Gamecube so far, despite a few flaws.

Graphics: These guys did not caprure Pierce Brosnan's face. Sorry, but his eyes are too stretchy and moulth too wide. But the rest of him was spellbounding, and the graphics in this game were so extroardinary that at least 10 times I must have said "Wow......" or "Woah....." or something along those lines. In some levels, it is ever so slightly more dark than I would have liked, but that is a small problem, they are sitll the best graphics I have seen for Gamecube. 10/10

Sound/Music: I know that a lot of the reasons that the sound/music in this game got bashed was because they played the James Bond theme song over, and over again, but I happen to love the James Bond theme song, but that is just my personal opinion, however, to any other person that would seem to get very annoying. I do not think that the sound in this game was that amazing, contradictory to what many people think. The sound doesn't seem that edgy at times and on my game it gets a little fuzzy and distorted. 9/10

Controls: I think that it is a bad idea that you can not change the controls to your bidding in this game. However, although seeming weird to some people, I think that after a mere 5 minutes of play they are easy to pick up and eventually comes naturally. On the other hand, it is extremely awkard having to use the c-stick to select items, not to move or change direction. It is also awkward aiming, and when you have your aimer up it is extremely hard to control. Good, but a few adjustments to the better could be made. 8/10.

Multi-player (not usually included, but I think that that aspect of the game is half or more of the fun): Pure genious. Pure genious. Pure genious. The Multi-player for this game is the most fun I have ever had in my life doing anything, skateboarding, playing guitar, and all of video games, it's the most fun ever. It is especially fun with 3 friends because that way it gets more chaotic and fast-paced. The Q-Claw is the best addition to the multiplayer scene I think since there were an extra two controllers added, with it you can go up to the ceiling and sniper people without there knowing, it is effective as well as hilarious. You know what rating I am going to give it. 10/10

Replay Value: I was conflicted when giving this area of the game a rating. On one hand, there is three levels of play in the regular mode, making that part of the game replayable, and there is also multiplayer which I'm not going to start with. But there were some things that makes this game last a little shorter, likt that the game is very short, and you can (obviously) only play multiplayer when you have friends over, so it eliminates that, so after you have beaten all of the difficulties it becomes boring, but that is not for a long time, so it still has a great replay value. 9.5/10

Fun Factor: I have never had as much fun playing this game than I have playing anything else in my life. Games like this come and go, there wont be a new one like this for a very long time, you have no idea what you are missing out on if you don't have this game, you must buy it 10/10

Overall(not the average scores): 10/10

Better Than PS2

Bond for Cube is so much better...

I think this game is the best.
the aiming is a little hard to get where it's second nature,
but other than that I think its worth 5 stars.
get this game, it's worth every pinny

Not Goldeneye nor Perfect Dark

This game is nowhere near as good as Goldeneye or Perfect Dark for the N64. The graphics are definitely a step up, but the rest is a step back. I only rented this game, and I'm glad I didn't purchase it.

The accuracy of the weapons is very questionable. While enemies are blasting you from far away, you will be having problems making accurate shots yourself. The enemy also has ridiculously enhanced senses. In a room where it was almost impossible to see into, an enemy kept launching grenades at me. I couldn't tell where he was, but he kept hollering "Fire in the Hole!!". The final straw for me in this game was the accuracy of Snipers (on level 8). Their laser sight moved quickly and they fired (and hit you) the second that the beam landed on you. Snipering is a precise skill, and I find it hard to believe that with the sniper aiming so randomly and myself running about like crazy, I'd stand a better chance of not getting hit. Wrong. Save your money for a better game, like Resident Evil, Pikmin, Smash Brothers, Monkey Ball, Sonic 2, or Star Wars.
