“People have to learn to stop judging games on graphics and more on story and the game's ability to feel like the movies.”
“Great game, the missions are awesome and well thought out, love how it puts all the movies together and creates missions for each one, using great detail about each movie, definitely one of my favorite Bond games.”
“It's fun watching all of the different movies retold in mission segments.”
“Story: 1.0 / 10. 007 Legends' plot is pretty much nonexistent.”
“There isn't really a storyline in this game.”
“The story has been completely retold in order for it to make sense for a game that will take you an hour or so to finish. I am a die-hard Bond fan, and seen as this is Bond's 50th anniversary, this is a complete insult.”
