OHMST theme hits
oh boy IOI cooked
I'm glad they got David Arnold to do the theme. The recent movies lacked his touch (I can't believe they hired Zimmer instead of him for No Time to Die).

Everyone is out here playing the 007 game and here I am just enjoying my Kane and Lynch 2.
I wish they made another Kane & Lynch game.
 
They say the action's right around the corner.

Seems like the typical modern movie-game with limited interaction and gameplay designed for IGN reviewers.
The AI looks on par with Star Wars Outlaws. It's far worse than the modern Hitman games, which is just weird. Of all the things to screw up.

The lack of gunplay and the railroading vehicle mechanics just doesn't fit the worldbuilding of Bond.
 
I thought the game was fun.
Because you're not devoid of logic.
You look at games like Goldeneye 007
Nothing about James Bond made Goldeneye the revolutionary console shooter. It easily could've been a Rambo game or anything else with the same gameplay and it would've been revolutionary. It's a legendary game and I have fond memories of it but it's not the best Bond game by far.
after over 20 years since the last good bond game (everything or nothing)
From Russia with Love and Bloodstone were great. Arguably Bloodstone was the only truly good Bond game during that depressing Activision era.
but the others I don't even know their names.
Cressida and Monroe AKA the white people being the main characters while the Indian and the black woman agent get crisped up in a bomb attack is hilarious. Bond, Cressida and Nash, again white, being the only ones to survive is equally as hilarious.

I don't see the issue. They're following the rules.
What the fuck is that shithole?
View attachment 9084990
I'm simply not interested until a sale.
More power to you.
Calls us when the game sells 5 million copies at full price to break even.
Up to 4 million now. Cope and Seethe.
balldo gate 3 and enjoy all the homos and dykes in that game
"Bond Game is le woak."
>Goes back to playing bestiality bear sex game full of faggots on faggots.
The biggest giveaway is when they call it "marvel writing". Bond has been quippy cheesy one liners since the original movies. It's kind of his whole thing.
These people complaining here are fake Bond fans. Just trolls to laugh at.
People keep pointing out the tattooed dyke from the club but she's some loser Bond doesn't even hit on while telling an equally disgusting blonde cunt to fuck off already for hitting on him.
Yep. They show that screenshot but Bond literally is talking to her only to rile her up into calling her people so he can trace the call....They're posting that screen and going "Look how cucked Bond is!" like she's the Bond girl or whatever.
The best character genuinely has been the other white guy agent.
Wanted Monroe to become 006 so badly...Cheers mate.
Aside from that, this woke slop game has nothing at all to do with James Bond, they turned him into a pussboy who gets pussy-whipped.
At least try a LITTLE BIT with your bait my dude...This just looks sad and desperate.
Except there's a major difference between the quipping here and the dogshit Spider-Man-tier voice lines that First Light gives us.
Show me on the doll where the totally real Spider-Man voice lines are coming out of Bond?
waste less of my time.
Your Doritos eating time or your furry porn watching time? Which one gets wasted less?
1. Moneypenny is black, but whatever. She's cute in game and has a good dynamic with Bond. There's a pretty funny sequence where she hears him keeping the British end up over the radio and awkwardly abandons her post to get some tea.
2. M is an Indian woman, and I thought it was going to be girlboss nonsense, but she's even tamer than Dench's portrayal of M. She backs up Bond throughout the game and is only critical when Bond does one specific stupid thing.
3. Single cherry-picked frame of a depicted 10/10. They linger on her million poly wet ass for what feels like an hour.
4. Black NPC in Africa. Pretty good example of how people are taking things out of context.
5. The character ranting about the movie poster is a pompous and smug spoiled girl and she's arguing with a dude that just keeps saying it's badass, because it is. Considering it's a well-done legally-distinct version of "The Street Fighter," I don't think she's anyone's stand-in. The argument really isn't even against the poster itself as a concept but how it doesn't belong in the kitchen.
6. Don't remember encountering this character at all.
7. I thought the ending is good. The whole reason he gets rescued in the end is that James Bond is so good at wooing and fucking that even the hardened Spectre agent sent to manipulate, use, and discard him can't stand to see him die after he sacrifices himself to finish off the bad guy. Sets up some interesting stuff for the sequels.

I had some complaints about the gameplay but otherwise enjoyed it, but shit like this just puts me in sperg mode.
Wow...Someone actually used sound logic and reasoning in the IOI thread. Weird!
Yeah whatever, right, who cares about turning White characters into fucking disgusting niggers you woke fuck.
This is a hideous nigger you dumb woke faggot!

Another Woke fag.


Fuck back to reddit you woke subhuman piece of shit. I don't care about modern Bond films, and just because they are woke trash we should just accept it, eat shit woke scum. Are you a nigger, I assume so, you guys have no self-control at all, woke slop game drops, need to consume.

Why are woke nigger worshipping subhumans like this are allowed on here mods? Everything turns left if you don't gatekeep against filth like this.
Lmao bro's not even trying to sound realistic.
We are just talking about a game we enjoyed on its relevant thread. Plus my dude this is a gossip forum.
You don't understand. You must despise the game....You must FROTH about the gaem.
Did you see the steam numbers? I don't think we will be getting a sequel
Over 4 Milly now.
Soy bond is in free fall,
At a cool 4 million. Cope and Seethe loser.
You sound very angry.
Literally the only reason they hate the game is because these characters aren't white. I bet if someone made a mod for First light where Bond loses an eyes
i wonder why nobody bitchs about the latests bumbling and faggot itineration of Q and how the game corrected that. thats because all of you are stupid tourists faggots
Yep. It's all just bitching about M, Moneypenny and Greenway. Despite Moneypenny never being a prominent figure in the books or even the movies that much. This game gives her the most character she's ever had really. She's also not ugly, but her outfit is. It sucks balls.
M has been a woman since Goldeneye and Judi Dench brought real agency to the character. Bernard Lee was good but he didn't do much except send Bond on the mission. The dude who became M at the end of Skyfall was pretty good from what I remember of Spectre...Despite that movie's glaring flaws.
So why doesn't this poster? How often was he dropped as a child to mis-read metrics this bad?
They're trolls but their problem is they're not even trying to sound like they're being serious. Read what they're posting friend...It sounds like shitty AVGN parodies.
Greenway becomes your homie, you win him over and develop a bromance with him. In turn he wins the player over because he realizes he misjudged you and becomes genuinely likeable.
Yeah. You start out hating Greenway for being a prick but end up liking him because he realizes he was totally wrong about James Bond.
Just a reminder that this user have no original thoughts in their head, and takes all his opinions from grifters on twitter.
He's a troll but doing it badly. You're supposed to make people believe you believe what you're saying when you troll...This retard isn't doing that.
I prefer linear game then having an open world.
I do hope we get some solid driving action in the next game.
We're getting driving in Tacsim soon.
Double post, but fuck it.
Game sales has increased from 1.5 million in ther first day to 2.2 million units.
Most copies has been sold on Ps5.
View attachment 9098443
Up to 4 million now.
I liked how they killed of all the DEI 00-candidates off-screen
I liked how the ones who became Bond's friends were the other white 00 candidates and the one who keeps chewing him out and hating on him was the black woman. Then when they die, the only ones who live are Bond, Cressida and Nash...The white ones.
There's six other candidates and the only two that get more than a line of optional dialog are the two white ones.

There's actually a few people that comment on Bond being underdressed, but it would have been a good time to put him into a classic Bond tux (plot wise I get why he just rolls in, which still worked for me. Especially since you can pass yourself off as a journalist).
Nash is white, he's Scottish. He's the one who 'goes underground' after Slovakia. He's probably going to come back as 006 or even become part of Spectre.
Your safe space is being invade by people who actually play games, unlike you.
Why don’t you go and bitch on /v/ about how games are woke?
Or maybe you can post more shit from a domestic abuser who jerk off to Pokémon?
Gotta watch Synthetic Man whine about blacks while fawning over former Tranny pornstar Sue Lightning AKA Sphere Hunter.
I WANT TO GET FUCKED IN THE ASS BY SOME ANIME WITH TITS.
Synthetic Man AKA Sphere Hunter's biggest cum guzzler.
Feel like this is ANOTHER game which is forgotten in 2 years tops.
Doubt it.
Only another measly 3 million copies before they break even.

I'm sure they can do it!
4 million sold now bitch boy. Cope and Seethe.
Honestly looking at streams of it I can't help but notice it's all a certain... demographic. Leftists, weebs, women, and low testosterone males playing it.

I even noticed a few even banning anyone who expressed criticism of the game, for some reason. I wonder if these people compartmentalize, like they don't want to admit its shit, and if someone points out flaws, they take it personally because it reflects bad on their tastes???

Kinda disgusting to imagine that mentality, if you know you have shit taste, just get better taste, or otherwise just be fine with others criticizing?? I can only assume they feel deeply insecure from it, because thinking of games I like (noita, og xcom modded, ect) id never feel a need to ban over someone expressing criticism over it, but for them it seems like criticizing it is basically ALSO calling them stupid, because they secretly know it's garbage, but are in denial, and hate you pointing it out.
That's who stream nowadays pal....

Tough alpha males don't stream video games. They're lumberjacks, cops, mechanics, soldiers, etc. Streamers have always been women, weebs and soyboys.

Are you for real, fag
I think they're trying to troll but not realizing you have to actually make the person think you're being serious.
Completely nailed my problems I had with the game, just too restrictive, especially compared to what IOI had done before.
Bro wanted it to be Hitman.
"It's not good at something it's not trying to do"
Again, bro wanted it to be Hitman.
what part of "its not a hitman game" was not understood
All of it. They wanted it to be Hitman with hair.
he characterization of James Bond is too "modern" for my liking.
Fucking whores, making puns, shooting dudes. That's modern?
I'd sooner choose Mouse: PI for Hire
Said with absolutely zero irony.
This is kinda moot when there's so many similarities, and systems used.
It's only moot if you're retarded.
I dropped the game during the anartica mission near the end, I couldnt take the braindead AI and walking sections anymore. I feel zero desire to ever play that shitgame again.
Bro played 90% of the game on easy mode and then dropped it....What a retard.
 
I wouldn’t want Bond to be played by Lazenby again in a game but having Lazenby as a cameo would be dope. Or even Dalton or Pierce.
As like those background characters you can talk to a bit while you’re walking around.
Not Craig tho keep him away.


The only way I’d want Lazenby in a game is if it’s like they did with From Russia with Love where they brought Connery back.
Do that for OHMSS.

Time for that has probably passed since he's retired and has dementia. Don't think Lazenby ever liked his Bond role apart from the fame it gave him, he tried to grow out of it and do more "artistic" indie movies that "meant something" to his hippie mind but no one saw them.

There's the PS1 FMV game Fox Hunt which had Lazenby as a mentor figure.

I'm going to say the next Bond game should have Tupac since anyone can just use him now I guess
 
Actual work and outdoor fun time. I'll leave the Dorito eating and jacking it to furries in your expert hands, you butthurt little bitch.
Damn bro I didn’t realize you chop wood with your face and are a super le epicz outdoorsman.
Guys check it out, he waits up in a tree with a Rambo knife and jumps onto the backs of deer and slits their throats and he shoves his big beefy arms into rivers and pulls out big chinook salmon.

We are dealing with John Outdoor Fun Time here folks.

I forgot about that.

Tbh I didn’t know Lazenby was like that. Shame because he was the most like Bond IRL having been a big war hero or something like that.
I love that Christopher Lee, much of which Bond is based on, thought Pierce Brosnan was the best Bond. Pierce is my favorite.
I'm going to say the next Bond game should have Tupac since anyone can just use him now I guess

Aww did little bitch get mad that he got called out for projecting his furry fetish on others?
 
Next 007 game should have Honor Blackman’s likeness.
